Returned/damaged goods - cheap sites?

Hi,

Does anyone know of any shops that sell returned/slightly damaged items from catalogues or anything? I have heard about them but never seem to have much look finding them.

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    Theres a site called halfcost.co.uk which is an outlet store for 24studio catalogue.
  • www.goodreturnswholesale.com - based in Barry, South Wales.

    I have bought a couple of things from them and am very pleased with the Customer Service. Mainly deal in returned or end of line Argos stock.
  • I use clearance-comet.co.uk - its an auction site.

    I have picked up some good bargains for only slightly marked items.

    Dont forget to try your local freecycle (if youre not already registered)

    FREECYCLE.ORG

    My local one has a wide variety of new and used items :)

    Just a word of warning, their AAA Grade stuff is rarely AAA, most has some form of damage, or bits missing.

    Which doesn't say much for their B Grade stuff.:rolleyes:

    I've never had any problems with AAA grade items - or any other grade - from whatsgoingcheap.com.

    Ordered quite a few times, no probs.

    i ordered a bike for my sons birthday next week - when it came it was damaged - they rang us back after leaving a message and have now sent us a replacement item and told us to keep the damaged bike (which could possibly, be easily repaired!). So the customer service is very good.

    Found that AAA has always been AAA, except for once, a £10 DVD player- the remote was missing, when I emailed customer service, remote sent next day delivery. This was a gift for my 8 yr old son and when we eventually set it up the colour was grey. Tried it on several TV's and always grey. Emailed customer service, some 10 weeks after delivery and they sent through for him a brand new portable dvd player:D , without even requesting the old dvd player back!:T
    He was delighted and uses it all the time.
    Absolutely fab service, can't fault them, great items, great prices, fab customer service!:T :T :T
