The Magpie Reviews 8

Can't believe magpie are still scamming people ! They scammed me about six years ago and they are using the same scam too ! Giving a price on your item in my case a mobile then when they receive it they tell you it was damaged when they received it and offer just a couple of pound ! When I told them no and to send it back it came back with cracked screen it was immaculate when I sent it shocking !!! When this review goes on there's always a Goodone to follow funny that !

UK purchasers beware!! Price looked very good and after checking them out as based in Germany thought they were def not a scam. Indeed they are not a scam but not the most professional company. They included taxes and duties in the price in pounds and when shipped I received invoice in euros which was the first issue. They then provided one in pounds albeit in German after I complained. Shipment got held at customs and I had to pay taxes + fees to release all delaying delivery. Was told in advance of paying that they would reimburse me for the payment as I should not have to do this as already paid. However here is the kicker after I paid they then only refunded the tax they charged me initially and not what I paid out to parcel force which included fees etc. They then hide behind some small print despite offering to reimburse. So fact is they don’t really know how to transact through international customs in advance and despite including it in their prices expect you to then resolve and cough up any differences. Now having to get credit card company involved so this was far from a simple purchase and not one I will repeat. Not sure whether they are hoping customs doesn’t pick up so they can claim back tax locally or that they are just not able to run the business properly internationally either way it wasn’t the experience you want so be warned. Fine I’m sure if you live in Germany but elsewhere all a bit of a Gamble.
