Any one used awooza.com uk before?


Recommended Posts

Has anyone used this site before? It look legit but thought I better check.

They have the Zune HD for ?270 with free delivery so thought I might get one finally as Im fed up of waiting for a UK zune HD2.

Personally I would avoid it, I cant find any shop reviews/ratings for awooza.com

If it were me I would buy a brand new one off ebay, they sell for ?200 + ?20 shipping. If you were unlucky enough to get it stopped through customs you'll have to pay ?7 for the admin fee of Parcel Force paying the customs charges - those customs charges will be the going VAT rate (20%) slapped onto the purchase price of the item.

With all of that in mind, the worst case scenario is you'll be paying ?267 for a 64GB zune and have to wait 2-3 weeks for it to get into your hands, BUT you'll have the piece of mind of not getting scammed.

Hey thanks for the reply.

I decided to buy from amazon.com in the end. Was 250 all in (shipping and a customs deposit).

Plus I have the piece of mind that they are reliable.

Should be here in a couple of weeks.

Cant wait.

I recently tried to buy an iPad which the site claimed was in stock. Paid for the item then after 10 days and numerous emails which awooza ignored I filed a claim for a refund via PayPal. Refund was granted with 24hrs and then I received an email from [email protected] stating the item was now in stock and would arrive with the next 5 days. Absolutely dreadful experience and I thought I had lost my ?500 quid.

I wouldn't advise anyone to use awooza.com based on my experience.

I ordered some headphones from Awooza. I only found out later that they are not actually based in the UK ( why the hell were they on UK google shopping results?)

8 days later no surprise they hadn't arrived. I filed a PayPal complaint and the transaction was refunded immediately which posts the question to me, is this company actually legitimate? And did the company actually send the item?

I think not!

My advice would be to AVOID them completely and don't be sucked in by their cheaper prices

Do not go near these scumbags!!! After around 4 weeks of not receiving my order they emailed saying sorry but there were truobles with thier orders and say it will be sent asap, they reply to your emails until the 45 day cut off period with Paypal to get your money back, it's not been nearly 4 months and they won't reply to a single email since the Paypal cut off date. This company is nothing but filthy, lying scums. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!! I lost $84 ; ((((
