    Seems to be quite a lot of bargains to be had, but is it reliable and has anyone had any bad experiences?

    I know it's been discussed before but I think it's a relatively new site so would like to get any recent opinions :)

    Look at www.ibood.com for today's bargain, looks like a good saving, €555 for a 30" HD ready TV:confused:

    That's a good response so far I suppose.

    How about price comparisons though? Can we (the consumers) be guaranteed that everything there is really as good a bargain as it seems in relation to what else is out there and the pricing does anyone know?

    ive dealt with them a few times and never had a problem. All my stuff was delivered by interlink and was tracked by them. only once was the delivery a bit slow but that was due to a holiday in amsterdam ( where they are based i think )

    I would use them again but they tempt you with impulsive buys..just be sure you need it before you buy. have a look thru their back catalogue of products and it will give you an idea of whats likely reappear..

    Yeah, I can imagine it to be very impulsive. I've actually got certain things in mind so not tempted by anything else really. Waiting for car sound systems only really:)

    Good news so far anyway, cool.

    the wife bought a magimix/nepresso coffee maker recently for €160 odd , which was a great bargain worth at least €250. a day after ordering, received an email to say it shipped, and received it three-four days later by interlink (as someone mentioned)no problem whatsoever. we were impressed by both the machine and the speed of delivery, and wouldnt hesitate to buy from them again
