So What’s The Deal with “WISH” The Online Shopping Platform?

Recently came across Wish, prices seem to be very cheap with reasonable shipping fee and time too. I have never seen a deal being posted here on this website for some reason? Am I missing something here?

    It's utter garbage. You rarely get what you think you've ordered, if it arrives at all. No loss not having or promoting it here.

    There are no bargains when you can buy most of the items on Wish directly from AliExpress cheaper.

    I used it every year to buy Christmas presents for my mother-in-law

    • You got your wish.

  • Wish sells rejected poor quality goods at a low price.

    When AlIExpress cracked down on all the fake and counterfeit products the sellers jumped ship to Wish. They've certainly done a good job at advertising in the right places and many people order from them thinking they're a good source of cheap stuff from China.

    While on the topic of their wide reach. Back in the day when I wrote for some Chinese tech sites they'd offer us large incentives to advertise their mobile app. It didn't take much when they were offering cheap Xiaomi.

    Some people on YouTube get $1 phones. Other people spend hundreds and get a keyring. I wouldn't waste my time on it.

  • Only $68 for the latest Sumsang S21+5G with 48 million rear HD cameras…

    On top of the other comments, any time I've clicked through to look at a product out of curiosity, the cheap price in the ad has increased and there is shipping costs on top of it.

    You'll "Wish" you never ordered from them.

  • Many counterfeit goods

  • Wish is basically a user friendly version of Aliexpress that is heavily advertised and worse.
    There are thousands on YouTube videos of people ordering cheap items from Wish .

    Basically you get what you pay for - a $40 graphics card isn't going to be a 3080, it's going to be some garbage from the early 2000s.
    If you want cheap chinese crap you go to Aliexpress or Taobao if you want the genuine experience.

  • Avoid this online store. ( Got scam from them twice).

      Didn't learn your lesson the first time?

  • It is very CHEAP as you wish.

  • It's got a great marketing team at least!

  • Find everything cheaper in aliexpress

  • I "WISH" I had read these comments before I bought something from there… ALL the people I know who have bought from them rave about them… I got some crap that I can't work out what it's use/purpose is and when I went to lodge a complaint I was advised to wait a few more weeks due to covid demands and slow mail. Well stupid me.. now they are telling me it's beyond the 30 day returns policy.. I shall continue chasing them though. I shan't be resuming online shopping again from anywhere that I can't march into the shop.. I can't convey how angry I am that I actually tried buying something online and it's proven to be as difficult and painful as I thought it would be.
