    Just got this email but some of the deals seem a little too good to be true. They are only charging 10% of the quoted RRP of some items. Most ofthese site are usually 50% discount not 90%.

    Anyone else get them or used them?

    It's a bit confusing, but the way I understand it from the site is that you pay 5% of the voucher value up front to FuluDeals and pay the remainder of the voucher cost on purchase of the product or service directly to the company.

    So for example, there's a deal there for Bushras Beauty Salon with an original price of €110. You buy the voucher for €5.50 and pay an extra €60 when redeeming the voucher. Which means the discount is far from the quoted 89% on the site and will be the same for all deals.

    Seems to be a very poor concept with not a lot of thought put into it. Overly complicated with no benefit over regular group buy sites.

    Can envisage lots of unhappy customers with this site. Essentially you are just paying for the copy of the voucher which you then take to retailer and pay them the slightly discounted price.
    They have a deal for 10 personal training sessions worth 400e. Pay 20 for the voucher and then 300e when booking. How does that equate to a 90% saving.
