Cheap and reliable online pet supplies

  • Hi all, I've recently discovered this one: zoofast.co.uk. prices they have are really crushing. I'm tempted to buy with them, supplies 20, even 30% cheaper than anywhere else, free delivery to my area.
    Has anyone tried them already? looking forward for any feedback...

    Avoid that one like the plague. I've not used them, but clicking on Contact Us or Returns doesn't lead to the right page.

    Agree, no clear info 'bout them

    Pet supermarket have given me nothing but grief!

    Bought a dog cage for my Dad (Dad's dog, not my Dad) paid the £2.oo next day delivery, but they didn't ship it till the next day (it was ordered at 10am, so no excuse) and it turned up 2 days late. Phoned up to get delivery charge back, said they would send a voucher, they never did.

    Realised it was too small, so enquired about returns. Got a really !!!!!y woman on the phone who was no help at all. Ended up ordering a larger one, assured that it would be shipped in time, it turned up 3 days late.

    Emailed them with the complaint and they agreed to collect the first cage free of charge, refund it and give me a £10 voucher.

    That was last week, and guess what? Still waiting on the refund, all the while interest is building up on that payment as I paid by credit card.

    I will use my £10 voucher, and after that I will never go near them again.

    update, September - still no refund! Now in the hands of the credit card company who will refund my Dad and chase pet supermarket for the refund.

    thanks for the warning, I was thinking of buying with them - but no mercy for the lazy

    Can I start a thread hopefully to become a sticky?
    When I want to buy something, I like to compare all places first and keep forgetting where to look. Places are mentioned in lots of threads but one has to read through lenghthy posts.
    How about I start by saying who I've used and then people can PM for other ones to be added so that basically all places to look at are in one short post:
    So far I've used the top 5:

    www.pet-supermarket.co.uk
    www.petmeds.co.uk
    www.petplanet.co.uk

    I have just found a UK gov website where you can check sites supplying veterinary medicines operate legally. I'm sure you all love your pets as much as I do so would want to make sure your buying safe meds for your pet. I am now using Pet Drugs Online (which is on the VMD list) since being let down by BestPet (not on the list)
    Hope this helps you all :)

    They have good prices especially on certain products and the website is really easy to find what you are looking for... Free Shipping, but a bit slow and not selling in IE and Scotland. A part for that, pretty good.

    Not really convinced, based in Poland, very difficult website... however prices seems very good, probably a bit too good. not quite sure but thank you for pointing it out
  • I've got bunnies and I buy most of my supplies from Viovet as they are normally the cheapest and do Free Delivery! Also for newbies there is £3 off when you spend over £20 when you use code VRCPZMB8E

    I did not know this site but looked it up after your comment - it is NOT "based in Poland". It originated in Poland now with shops in quite a few countries:

    http://www.zoofast.co.uk/page_info.php?pages_id=18

    So perhaps get your facts straight before posting again?

    Or were you just trolling round with your 2 posts trying to "promote" that website?

    I did not know it, never used it so have no idea if any good BUT it is not "based in POland" so straightening this out.

    Saying that, I like their price of Orijen fish - but website is a mess info wise and actually their payment o[options etc seem to point to Poland...

    Rad the above, made sense to me when I wrote it, now it still does to me but may not seem to be logical to others, apologies.. Perhaps I should go back to bed... alost 3 am..

    It seems they don't have actual stores or warehouses in other countries, but they have registered websites in other countries and there's a U.K. support number and email address. Everything is actually shipped from Poland though.

    I've taken a punt and ordered some cat food from them as the prices are well below those on U.K. based sites (about 2/3) and the shipping is free above £25 or so. I'll try to remember to report back when the package arrives!
