Everything a penny?

Hi, I’ve recently stumbled across a site called everything a penny, where everything is a penny, obviously. They just make you pay for shipping which usually equals what you’d expect to pay for the items but a bit cheaper, however they’re doing a Black Friday deal which means you only pay so much for so many items. For example, they have 5 items for £5 shipping. They sell lots of different things including phones, one of which I looked would normally be over £300 shipping but now I can get it in the £5 shipping deal, surely this is too good to be true right?

Has anyone used this site? It seemed believable before but now that deal seems beyond ridiculous

Im sick of being spammed with their crappy promo emails😂😂

LucyLocketss · 11/12/2019 11:43

Oh my god. Don't order from this company! Of COURSE it's a bloody scam. I know this for a fact as I work in this sort of area (err not scamming folk I hasten to add!)

Please just exercise common sense. Don't 'take a chance' because it's only a fiver or whatever. You're giving them details that you shouldn't be doing. This is basic internet stuff here.

Hey, I’m quite tech savvy and I was taken in. I just assumed it was like wish.com and it was coming straight from the factories in China

Lisamaz1994 · 11/12/2019 12:43

So did I. But I started to get suspicions. Its been a week still no response. And that person earlier in the feed has yet to prove they received their items😂😂 what a loser

To quote my wise old Dad, 'If it seems too good to be true, it probably is'

Sugarpea123 · 11/12/2019 12:58

Can't actually believe how many mugs there are about. 'its only £x what's the harm'? You are perpetuating scams and lining thieves pockets. Jesus.

Rovemongoose123 · 11/12/2019 13:00

I’m no mug but thank you. Like I said, I’m pretty tech savvy. I just assumed it was wrongly like another site. We all made a mistake, you don’t need to be an arse about it

Lisamaz1994 · 11/12/2019 13:14

Ive been spamming their facebook page and people are ignoring it carrying on ordering so more fool them now😂

Lisamaz1994 · 11/12/2019 15:29

Oh and now they have blocked me from commenting on their posts and deleted my comments😂😂

Lisamaz1994 · 11/12/2019 17:48

Can everyone who had a bad experience so far review on trust pilot... We have to stop others being scammed

Naomicerkez1 · 11/12/2019 21:58

Hi ladies, I set up an account to post about this website as when you search them on Google, this conversation comes up. I ordered in October, spent £28, so it's not loads but it's not the point. They have two accounts on Facebook, I'm guessing so if one is reported and closed they can just start again. Their main sell is baby clothes, disgusting that they're actually targeting mums with babies. Call your banks, it's at your banks discretion but you could be refunded. I've reported them to trading standards, really hope they get stopped soon!

Naomicerkez1 · 11/12/2019 22:00

Just to add, should of received my items end of Nov, contacted them on Facebook, and have been blocked, commented on a post asking for a reply, blocked, and ignored via email. When they send you a email to say your order has been dispatched, if you click the link it says 'we've received your order' they don't provide any form of tracking details

Rosepetals30 · 11/12/2019 22:10

.... did anyone not give this site a second thought? Where do you think they are making a profit? 1p doesn’t cover ANYTHING; not even the cost to run the website.

LucyLocketss · 11/12/2019 22:49

I know we all make mistakes etc etc but this literally had ted flashing lights above it Confused

I don't think warming people needs to happen. Most people will know that you cannot but a krups coffee machine for a penny surely? Or a phone. Or anything really

Plus the grammar on the site is laughable. Another giveaway

Rovemongoose123 · 12/12/2019 02:42

Actually, you can buy stuff for free or even a penny from wish.com and just pay postage. I have had plenty of stuff like that off there

Lisamaz1994 · 12/12/2019 07:19

They do love to block people including me when they get found out... Trust pilot removed my review because they dont believe its genuine sick joke!!!

32ndOfFebtober · 12/12/2019 10:14

What does @Rolosx have to say now?

Lisamaz1994 · 12/12/2019 10:32

Nothing cos they are 1 of the scammers running that website!

simonh1965 · 12/12/2019 11:15

i done mine on trustpilot and mine still up just not enough people taking any notice have put it also on all the scam web sites that i could find i dont have facebook so cant comment on there web site but would get removed anyway surprised facebook not taken it down yet

Lisamaz1994 · 12/12/2019 11:30

They have took mine down... Sick joke. Some people read those reviews to see whether to order or not. Have u flagged up the fake positive reviews? They need removing clearly fake

Tina97 · 12/12/2019 15:52

@Rolosx we all know you’re taking part in making money on us- PARENTS of a young children. I hope you all feel better after scamming us right before Christmas. Karma is a bi*ch and coming for you trust me. I hope when you get found you fall into some serious debt you disgusting scammers! I feel sick in stomach when I think of all those disappointed parents and children. Including me and my little daughter! I’ve now reported you everywhere I possibly could and I got all my family and friends to do the same. My geeky friend also found out your IP address and reported it so they know who you are! Sick bastards !!!

OhioOhioOhio · 12/12/2019 15:57

Sounds too good to be true, probably is.

Lisamaz1994 · 12/12/2019 17:20

@Tina97 have you rang your bank to get your money refunded xx I got mine refunded and both my sisters did too. I feel sorry for all those people who have been and continue to be ripped off. Absolutely disgusting.
