    I've just made an order for £30.07 and paid through Google checkout, yet, it's still saying it's going to cost me £30!? What gives? Has anyone else had experience with Ebuyer and GC?

    I'm not happy atm, because originally it was only going to cost me £18.

    It's only before delivery. Not after.

    Yeah, you cant get it for £18. The minimum is £30 plus delivery, so about £34 in total via supersaver, then you get the £10 off.

    Doing it that way works fine - I've had 3 or 4 £30ish items with a tenner knocked off :) One warning though, trying to cancel orders seems to cause no end of trouble. I've been waiting for a refund on one for over a month (!!) when I typed in the delivery address wrong and cancelled straight away.

    My order is the price I pay. Stuff doesn't magically get to me.

    Yeah it does, there's no such thing as the post man, it's made up by your parents to explain why stuff doesn't arrive.

    I built a computer for my girlfriend a few weeks back and did 6 lots of orders on ebuyer and saved about £50 (increased postage costs explains why I didn't save £60) so that was a rather large saving for me.

    However cancelling or getting a refund isn't esay. I purchased the wrong wall bracket for my tv and it took a month to send it back and to get my money back, if you want a refund or cancellation do not do it via the google email system but contact ebuyer directly because they never replied to any of my google generated emails.

    Bindi... why did you accept your order if you knew it was going to cost you over £30? :confused:

    Had a similar issue MrWillyWonka- did an order using Google checkout and they sent me the wrong USB pen drive, so had to contact them directly to get them to sort out an RMA as the orders aren't processed through my account so I couldn't do the standard return procedure.

    I thought it was like a post-sale rebate thing they have in the states, perhaps. Dunno, never used it before.

    Well, delivering from ebuyer & Aria is dearer through google checkout. They're asking £18 to post a mobo! Wish I hadn't bothered signing up!

    Not for me, they've finished the offer now anyway. I normally use Supersaver.
