Buy Me Once UK Opiniões 

Divine sheets and fantastic service! I ordered the House of Babylon organic sheets and they are the best sheets I've ever slept on by a country mile!. They are deep pocket so are secure on our mattress, which is essential to me. These divine sheets are a 600 thread count and are so soft yet sturdy! I love them and will be ordering more soon!

Despatch times are pitifully slow, it has been 6 days and the courier still does not have my item, it is only a small item that could have been sent by 1st class snail mail and been here already

After several emails back and forth between myself and customer care, including them claiming Royal Mail had delivered, even though they were not the courier of choice, I was informed they were investigating why my parcel had still not been despatched, despite the fact I had paid for one day despatch.
90 minutes after the last communication the courier picked my item up, now I play a waiting game on a delivery window.

I have been offered a discount on a future shop, which I find laughable, there is no way I would repeat my mistake, there has been no offer to refund the one day despatch payment or any actual apology or offer of trying to make things right.

Very happy with the products purchased and the speed in which products are delivered. Worth noting that we've not needed to contact customer services but items that would take longer to deliver (due to being made to order), we were given multiple warnings and we've been really happy!

I was looking for good quality fair-trade trunks for my man that are comfortable and sexy. I asked on various Facebook groups and was directed to this company. I liked the name of it and then found these nice trunks by Rozenbroek made in England. I ordered three pairs and they are really lovely, just right. Simple, classy, comfortable. But one of them had a rather tight elastic. When I wrote to ask what I can do about the one with the tight elastic they replied saying they’ll ask the maker what they can do. Rozenbroek made us a new pair with a softer elastic, which is just fantastic! The customer service was personal, friendly, swift and professional. It was great to converse with someone that understood me easily. I couldn’t recommend BuyMeOnce highly enough and look forward to my mans sexy trunks lasting for a long long time. I'm a very happy customer!

Unfortunately the service from buymeonce comprises a heady mix of unimaginably bad communication, a calamitous lack of organisation and general incompetence.

They seem to have no idea what’s in stock and/or what’s been dispatched. There’s no way to contact buymeonce by phone and emails could go unanswered for days. You’re unlikely to speak to the same person consecutively and seemingly no one there communicates with each other. Not one guarantee of ‘letting me know’ was fulfilled within their own deadline and the promise of dates for dispatch and timelines for delivery were transparently unrealistic and inaccurate.

I’m not being unreasonable. I’d expect a delay because of the COVID related port delays (if anyone knew it wasn’t in stock) but these guys don’t have a clue what’s going on.

We used BuyMeOnce again to purchase more cups and saucers from the Loveramics range. The cups and saucers are of very high quality and the items were very carefully packed and delivered quickly. My wife and I are very pleased with this company. Jessica was very helpful and we are absolutely delighted with our purchase. An old school company that puts its customers first and goes out of its way to ensure satisfaction. Thank you!

I ordered a pair of large socks on July 30th, it's taken until September 12th to receive the correct socks. I was originally contacted a day or two after I made the initial order to say that the size I wanted was out of stock, so I could either wait a couple of weeks or receive a refund. I was in no rush, so I was happy to wait those 2 weeks.

Sure enough after those 2 weeks were up, I received some socks! However, they were the wrong size. After a few days of back and forth, I was told to send them back and they would send out the correct size. I was expected to pay for the return, which I declined and requested that they sort out a prepaid label. After 10 days of no response, I emailed again and I finally ended up with a label a few days later. I posted them a day or 2 after that, and finally received the correct socks about a week later.

Overall, I'm terribly disappointed with the company. Karen from their support team was certainly responsive and helpful, but this wait time was absolutely ridiculous, and I'm personally insulted that I was offered no compensation for the hassle.

I wanted to save a few pounds, but I should've just ordered from Amazon with next-day delivery. As other reviewers have said, this seems to be a poorly run dropshipping operation.

UPDATE:

I posted the same review to FEEFO (which they're very active on) and received a large response profusely apologising for the particularly bad experience. They then proceeded to partially refund my order for all of my troubles, which was the kind of gesture I was expecting when there were difficulties initially.

Ordered goods from the site. After two weeks no goods. Got in touch. Got a swift email back to say they "were pushing their supplier". Followed up a week later and a week after that and ....... with the same result. Have now issued a letter before action and anticipate having to take legal action to get my money back.

These people are great at self-promotion (founded by an advertising executive) but not so great at customer satisfaction, price or anything else. AVOID.

This site doesn't appear to hold any stock. When you place an order, they simply place an order with their suppliers. It's a waste of time and money.

What is the point of using this site, when you can just go straight to the supplier? I have done some digging and see quite hefty markups on certain goods that are for sale straight from the manufacturer.

It’s a nice idea in theory but the company is just a third party seller or marketplace and don’t take any responsibility for the products. So it’s like Amazon but without the satisfaction guarantee.

I’d been looking for a grey sports bra made from natural fabrics to replace a conventional bra, but didn’t realise the one sold on this website was actually handmade to order. I ordered two, and waited a month.

So I was patient and my expectations were quite high not least because of the idea that this would be a sustainable and customer friendly choice. However, I was catastrophically let down by the quality of the item. It’s really like a t-shirt cut out with a relentlessly tight, thick and ridiculously wide elastic sewn onto it. Not only is the elastic made from plastic and completely unyielding, it’s also exposed, which is absolutely horrible against the skin. This is precisely what I wanted to avoid! These types of elastic bands don’t do anything to create more hold, they only create horrible discomfort. While the cup size was okay, the seams were wobbly and the wide shoulder ‘straps’ so loose they just fall off. There’s no give in the material that would keep it fitted, and it’s pretty thin (and about as useful as a Sloggy). I’m a size 10 so size small should have been the right size, but the proportions of this item are completely off. It looks like an amateur job: I’m afraid to say it would be very easy to make this sort of item yourself. I’m explaining all this so it’s clear why I didn’t feel that I should have to pay out of my own pocket. I had to return the bras on grounds of poor workmanship.

I sent Buymeonce a photo of the poor fit but it didn’t make any difference to the outcome. I was forced to wait a week for this company to communicate my concerns with the Rozenbroek Atelier where it originally came from, and that in itself was already stressful. And then it was only to hear that they would consider extending the returns period because of Covid. Sure, I had concerns that I couldn’t get to a post office due to shielding but that’s not what I wanted, I wanted a prepaid returns label because I should not have to pay for something of such low quality. I really don’t believe I am the only one to find the fit completely at odds with a normal size Small sports bra. No matter how substandard the product, they won’t pay for the return. And that really, really puts me off buying things from these kind of companies. I need peace of mind that I don’t have to pay out of my own pocket if the quality falls short.

It’s all nice and catchy that you should buy something to last, but it seems to me, it’s just a selling point, and in reality you run the risk of dealing with unseasoned sellers who don’t have a smooth way of making business. It would be better to go straight to the vendor so you have a bit more of an idea what you’re dealing with and what their policies are. I can’t rate the jrozenbroek.com atelier because they don’t even have a trustpilot presence. I had a look at their site and the bra looks exactly like one of their vests, but cropped and the elastic just added on. This would explain why it doesn’t sit right at all and ends up being baggy around the shoulders and armpits. Sadly, it’s all very well to support small businesses but I lost out on this and I shouldn’t have to! I’m getting burnt too many times - Etsy already being bad enough. I will stick to reputable sellers with a strong online presence, thank you very much. I recently got a reasonably comfortable grey bamboo sports bra from BAM and will buy more of those.

Some great products - worth paying a bit more if they really do last forever.

Great idea, great service and an improving selection of items from around the world. Buy me once is a website I wish I knew about years ago, it's great for finding products that last the test of time and can be repaired.
