I'm looking for a Samsung smart TV - as birthday present to myself - and came across the online shop allshop-online.co.uk where the prices are £100 lower than anywhere else.


Though I can't find any complaints, I'm VERY sceptical!


Has anyone had any experience with this site - good or bad?

    Thanks for that.
    I'm glad I asked the question, in case anyone else has come across it and is considering buying ...
  • I was unfortunate enough to start shopping with them in March 2014 :-(
    I ordered and paid for a WD TV Live Media Player online. They sent me an email to tell that it was out of stock but they could ship in about a week. I agreed, but they failed to deliver in several weeks. So I sent them an email to cancel the order, and bought it from somewhere else. But I was shocked when they sent the product a week later! Nevertheless they agreed to have it sent back, which I did, and the product was delivered to the return address.
    However, after I returned the product, they stopped responding to my emails, phone calls, facebook messages, etc. when it was their turn to return the payment!
    So I have learnt an expensive lesson about shopping with such obscure and un-trustworthy sites :-(
  • i to stumbled on there site with a tv been £200 cheaper! promised a ups number, none arrived, tv turned up while I was at work, left with a neighbour for 3 days, opened it up and there was a scar on the picture, to late for a refund, you have had it 3 days! kept persisting, 3 weeks later I can drop it off at UPS who are taking it to France for them to look at, so I have to wait until they say yes im getting a refund / new one? god knows! give them a wide birth guys, its cheap for a reason, im guessing they are some sort of seconds, very badly done too and treated, no 14 day cool off period, might have to go through my credit card, it has been a complete f*** up, your better of at pC World where you can take it back! . please head my warning, buy at your peril, I wish id have listened to the old mantra, if its to good to be true it usually not true!

    PS. Apparently I'm not allowed to post links but I guess you can easily find it by name - its address is simply allshop2014 after the usual facebook domain.
