KGBdeals Rip Off!!!!!

Andi33

I have just received an email from this company offering me a £100 voucher for a D&G watch for only £40!

Seems like a nice deal so I go to the website and have a look to be redirected to the store you purchase from. A little bit of shopping around shows more than one of the watches prices inflated on the 'voucher deals' page from that of the watch search page. 1 watch is selling on the site for £105 and the exact same watch is £145 on the voucher page of the same website! Jewlelleryhall shame on you for trying to rip people
off!

Surely this is naughty????????????????? What an absolute con!!!!!!:mad:

Maybe I don't understand your point, but you are offered a £100 voucher for £40.

You can use that voucher to buy a watch from the voucher page for £145 (ie £45 after voucher discount, hence £85 total spend).

Or

You can buy the watch from another page for £105.

You still save £20, or am I missing something ?

OK, think you answered it yourself honestly.
How can it be a £60 saving when they are offering it cheaper elsewhere on site???? THEY ARE LYING???? It is a fake offer.

I think the point ops making is the same website has two product pages:

[both the same product]
- product 1 @ £105
- product 2 @ £145 for voucher customers

Therefore where in theory op should pay £5 after using the voucher for the product, they are forced to pay £45 to buy the inflated price product.

Very underhand, probably not legal.

The reason for it is the company will only receive about £20-£25 for the voucher. Dailydeal websites usually take between 35-50%+vat from deal prices.

The "Goods" offers on these deal sites tend not to be very, erm, good. Better to shop around a little (Goldsmiths sometimes has good Sales on watches, or try Amazon and the like).

Usually I buy beauty or restaurant deals. The only really annoying one on Mother's Day. The small print said the deal was only for the main meal, we had to pay for rice/noodles/additional drinks, so we ended up still paying a considerable amount.

Having watches at a regular price versus a more expensive voucher price sounds out of order! Maybe an oversight, or just lazy pricing on their part, assuming customers won't fish around too much.

The website itself doesn't look too impressive (look at the other things they have for sale) so that would be enough to put me off anyway. I bet other websites do this, display falsely inflated prices for voucher customers.
