RE: What On Earth Is Happening On WISH (the sales app)?
My boy went a bit wish happy a few months back, and ordered quite a few different items on this offer of $1 and shipping. To be fair all of them turned up, and while it was mostly cheap pointless rubbish he was happy with the tat that kept arriving through the post box. To be fair the Donald trump bog roll is hilarious, he got a magnetic wrist band that is actually really good for keeping screws and tools to hand so to speak, a pretty cool fake silver chain with Viking type emblem - not to wear but a nice ornament.
But I think if anything that you know would be ten dollars plus normally is offered on the sale - good chance it is a scam. I bet the sellers do that to get interest in the product, and hope people will go back and pay full price after the refund.

I'm talking all sorts of items, like walkie talkies, drones, cordless drills etc etc etc
I've sent them a few emails too, they have replied to one, askign for proof of the bank costs I have and the loss in conversion.
So at least they are showing some "interest" into the DAMAGES they are causing people in their "turnover wheeling and dealing"
;) every "foreign dollar" into the state owned banking systems is two foreign dollars ledgered through the state budgeting systems.
tadaaaaaaaa!
+clothes for the family, I was really looking forwards to getting my family clothed for the next few years for a couple of hundred bucks.
Well even that stuff got "refunded".
Total bummer mate.
Ah that sucks then, sneaky way for them to capitalize on exchange rates. Well I hope you find somewhere a little more reliable.
Just to show proof of what I am talking about:
then this:
When you calculate the figures it = $0.07 AUD lost per $1 USD spent on a fake promotion.
Plus the bank fees for all the conversions as each transaction went via the bank each time, both out to Wish and then back from Wish.
So, yeah, a 7% loss + huge bank fees which are calculated per each transaction.
I'm not going to stop on this one, that is for sure, I am going to hound them hard as I am a loyal and regular customer who does not deserve to get ripped off and screwed by them via some "promotional sales" that 99.9% of them never happened = FAKE ADVERTISING!!!!
Misleading and very financially DAMAGING FOR US THE CONSUMERS!
