  • Ordered. Thanks OP.

  • Thanks, ordered one.

  • Just ordered one. Thanks OP.

  • Thanks OP.
    I don't understand these deals. Postage costs a lot more than 40 cents (or so) - so what is the profit motive for Zapals? Nobody runs a business to lose money (at least not for very long) - so what's the story? Are these "door-busters" designed to get you on site to buy something else? Any ideas?

      Postage in China is heavily subsidised to promote overseas sales. So they wouldn't lose out.

      I've always assumed that they do something "dodgy" to make a tiny profit but lots of sales by offering items for next to nothing and getting money in from the rebate. Not sure but it must be something like that.

    • My take is in China, postage is a fraction of the cost here. Eg $1 to send a letter in Oz! However zapals looks at it as a business opportunity for them to gain a valid email and customer for other profitable items.

      Look up a loss leader. That's why.

    • Some people will forget to apply the coupon, select an expensive shipping option or order multiple and be charged full price.

      Loss leader is the main reason, although, I'm not sure what I've ordered that hasn't been a loss leader.

    • This is actual fact from AusPost

      The chinese sellers operate like this, they pay shipping PER pallet, not per item or item weight, PER PALLET

    • All of the above, plus advertising. The more you see things come up here, and other places, with people saying things about it, you get engaged buyers who have a positive association with your branding. It's pretty valuable, targeted, advertising, with consideration. Very smart for these clearing houses that have little else but price and logistics to compete on. This kind of thing can compensate for shocking customer service.

    • Supported by the government to increase the foreign currency reserves. Don’t be surprised to see their economic strength now, almost everywhere is made in China.

    • Who pays the Australian postman for delivery?

  • Does zapals ship to parcel locker?

    • Do some places refuse to? I thought anything could go to parcel locker as long as it can fit.

      • as long as it is delivered by AusPost in Australia

      I've never had a problem with Zapals, Gearbest or Banggood. I've had trouble with a DD4 parcel addressed to a locker not arriving, but I'm still unsure if that was an ongoing problem or a one-off stuff up by Aus Post.

  • Thanks.

  • Thanks OP.

  • thanks.. bought 10. I always end up breaking ym tweezers.

      You have 10 accounts?

  • How long does it take for their stuff to get delivered? I'm still waiting on something I ordered from them on the 5th Jan, and the tracking number doesn't work.

    • 7 to 45 days

    Any recommendations for flat tweezers? I have several sets of the pointed tweezers but I find the flat ones more useful.

  • Haha costs only $AUD 0.30 if you change post option to Auatralia post at checkout…

  • They should dropship snail mail.

  • 5.00% Cashback applies.

    WTF! I don't think cash back applies to shipping costs.
    Since you are already getting this product for free, why even bother with cash rewards.

  • These remind me of the time my then 3yo son stuffed a bean bag bean up his nose and we had to wait in emergency for 4hrs for a "specialist" who knew how to use these tweezers to stick it in and get it out in 2 seconds 🤦🤦🤦.

  • That's a plucking good deal

  • Great for a few stray ball hairs.

  • why is the currency AED after i log in?

  • Just purchased @ $0.30c USD Thanks OP:)

  • Hope someone familiar with Zapals tracking can help. I was new to Zapals, signed up and ordered this.

    The shipment email sent after the order said "Shipped by HK Post" and provided a Tracking number. Got the email on 24/01/18, but did not verify tracking until now.

    I am guessing this is the page: https://www.hongkongpost.hk/en/mail_tracking/index.html

    When I entered the tracking number, what I got back was :

    There is no record on the subject item.
    Please ensure to input the correct item number, or refer to FAQ to understand the reason of no record.

    The FAQ is not much help. Before I contact Zapals, is this the right link to track this order? Thanks very much in advance.

    Finally got mine after about 3 weeks.

    • Are they any good?

        Seem alright, not bad quality considering it's something that is "free".
