Hi all, sorry wasnt sure where this should go

https://www.1-day.co.nz/

Have you heard of this store? Has anybody bought anything from them? They have some VERY low pricing and something I am after but not sure if its legit NZ or not.

The only issues you may have with them is if you order a "refurbished" laptop or similar...often just used and cleaned. Not actually refurbished. 

 

But lots of what they sell is well priced and good value for money.

Thanks guys. Phew. They sell $650 refurbed S10e galaxy phones, I thin $750 for a normal import. Trying to ascertain if any are snapdragons. I know of one other parralel importer that has SD Soc versions. But hard to find in the s10e which is worth the money over the similar designed but less powerful Pixel 4a.

The descriptions for their (especially tech) products are often laughably incorrect.

As Handsomedan suggested, I'd steer clear of their refurbished goods. I've heard of too many people buying a refurbed phone only to end up with a lemon and having a hard time getting action from 1day.

 

 

 

Other than that, they're fine.

Friends don't let friends buy electronic goods from 1-day.  

 

 

 

I remember when they use to be a legit 3 deals per day and they were often amazing deals.  Sitting by the computer, refresh button at the ready waiting for 12pm to tick over.

 

Ahhh, the good old days before it became just another $2 shop mess. 

 

 





Lazy is such an ugly word, I prefer to call it selective participation

I remember those days...before they were absorbed into the Warehouse Group...

does refurbished mean polishing with spit and then a huff and a puff to breathe off the dust?

In my experience with 1-day electronics, yes this is exactly what it means.

Bought a fair bit of stuff from 1-Day   but never electronics. If it dies you'll have to get  your money back as they won't be able to replace it, no stock.
