    Unless it's me missing something, yes I am disappointed. By Amazons own admission, ULIKE do not sell magazines. They are based in HongKong, in which case I fail to see how magazines can be in a parcel in place of an iPad.
    I have yet to get my refund, and then to replace the ipad. Then again, after reading UKHOTDEALS reviews on ULIKE, I am glad it has not arrived! I will not use ULIKE again regardless of reviews on Amazon.
    However, only my opinion. Not necessarily correct.

    I've scanned through a few related threads on there and can't find any reports of people receiving fake items. I did however see several that had received the items they ordered. Can you point to the bad reviews please?

    A good enough reason to celebrate none delivery. Endorsed by a few other sites.

    Can you point to the post where someone received a dodgy product please, and not just randoms suggesting they *might* not be legitimate?

    You are putting words in my mouth. I have not professed the above which you are suggesting.
    I said with regards the link;

    Everyone on there who has actually bought one is more than happy with their purchase, the neg reviews are from people that haven't purchased from that particular company but insist they must be fake because there selling too cheaply!
    I couldn't find any that stated they have been scammed so maybe the magazine switch was done before the seller received their stock or after it left their possession? I would actually(again)say Amazon have done extremely well by taking the ops word for it especially if the company doesn't have form.

    So you have not found any reports of something similar to your own situation? Or anything negative about the retailer from people that have actually bought from them? I take it you'll be avoiding Amazon in the future also, as they are the one that sent you the product?

    Takes a big man to admit they got it wrong ;)
  • I ordered a load of magazines from this company and they are scam artists. All I got was a boxload of IPad Airs. I am very disappointed.

    Smells fishy to me .
    Probable answer was the parcel has been hijacked some place along the delivery route .
