      Yes.. I think the OP should mention that they receive a one off payment of $10 for every person makes a purchase after signing up using the above URL.

  • Yes it is always free. According to their registration page, you can become a member by either invitation from an existing member, or by putting yourself on the waiting list.

    Which is completely against our OzBargain spirit, where people come here to share the "exclusive" bargains they found elsewhere to those bargains become no longer exclusive :)

  • ^ I find that Brandsexclusive has really slow service. I understand that it takes them time to obtain the items from their stockists. They are really slow in responding to enquiries. I have waited for an item for more than the 15 days (or whatever) that they have stated on their website for delivery. I got no email response from them when I sent them a message via the online form.

    Has anyone tried this site? http://www.ozsale.com.au/

    It works the same way as Brandsexclusive. Any feedback about Ozsale would be appreciated.

  • I've used ozsale. Like brandsexclusive, it also has really slow service as they ship out after the sale is over and they have received their supply from the stockists. The fastest I've received a parcel was 2 weeks but more often than not, I expect to wait around a month before orders arrive.

    Of all the purchases I've made with them, these were the problems:
    - only once was the cosmetics was off but successfully returned I recall
    - speedo swimwear sets were advertised as a 2 piece (top and bottom) but only the tops came and I wasn't able to check against their ad because all records had been removed from site by the time the items arrived. I didn't bother arguing as it was $15 and I was really busy at the time.

  • Ozsale are reaaaally slow. Everything I've ordered has taken one month or more to arrive.

    Also you can only buy one brand per order eg if they have 10 sales on (Each salebeing from a different brand) you have to pay shipping ($8.50 i think) for every sale you buy from. This really puts me off because while something might be cheap for $10, its not for $18.50…and you can't even add stuff from other sales to justify the postage.
    And ordinarily $8.50 isn't that much to pay for postage - but when that is anywhere between half the cost of the product or MORE than the cost of the product,its really off putting.

    • ^ Thanks for the feedback. I guess it goes to show that just because the items are cheaper it doesn't mean you get better service. With OzSale there are heaps of kids clothes, if you are waiting up to a month for them, the kids may not fit into them anymore or they would no longer be in season (winter/summer) when you get them. That is something to consider.

  • haha SMH just gave these guys a plug in one of their articles in the (i think) "icon" section in middle of Business Day

    • Yeah, I just read that. They also mentioned http://www.buyinvite.com.au/. Has anyone used them before?

      • I am a member but have never bought anything.

        ETA: Have just made some purchases…only to realise that you have to wait til the sale ends PLUS longer…my items are going to take longer than a month from the original purchase date to be shipped :-(

  • Are the mods ok with the OP using an affiliate link? Particularly when swimmingtoad has provided a link for automatic entry.

      I think it should be removed as he didn't declare it.
