Is shopping-battery.co.uk Legit?

After searching for a rare adapter, i came across this site. The product was shipped from China and was held up at customs for a few days but after 2 weeks, the adapter was finally delivered. The communication was good and I’m pleased with the outcome

I ordered a laptop battery from these people before reading the other review. I too thought the battery would be coming from a UK depot. I tried their online chat but found it was operating with a Chinese interpretation. Ordered on 28/09/2022, they say despatched 29/09/2022delivery on 1-3 days after item arrives in my country.Its now at the delivery depot at 05.34 14/10/2022 yippee its arrived!

I was slightly sceptical using this company because as others have stated they are not based in the UK as their website seems to suggest. However I decided to try them out as I now live in Portugal and was unable to find the charger here. To my surprise I received the package today, 6 days after having placed the order. The price was less than half of what Samsung have the charger listed for on their website and what has been delivered from China is an original Samsung charger. My only complaint would be that communication from the company after the order was placed was lacking.

This company seems to imply that they have offices in several countries including the UK and they say that their batteries are shipped within 2-4 days of ordering.Looking at their tracking emails and the Paypal details, it appears they are based in China.I have waited nearly 2 weeks and not a peep. I have requested a refund. Wish me luck!

The web site for this company states 'fast delivery' and implies that they supply from UK stock. Having place an order I recieved a mail stating that they were 'out of stock' in the UK and the product has been ordered from China. I placed my order on 31 July. Two weeks later and I have yet to recieve my order. Hardy 'fast delivery'.

The headline is that I received the purchased battery, which arrived in 8 days from the date of purchase. This website seems to be the same as "shopping-batteries.co.uk", which has more reviews.I did the backwards thing of placing my order then researching the website after seeing that I wasn't paying a British company as presumed. I was worried after seeing mostly negative reviews. Make no mistake, this is a Chinese company which despatches its stock from China. This is not clear from the website, which is archaic and busy.Once ordered, you can request the tracking information via the confirmation email to follow the journey. I had a look initially then pushed it to the back of my mind - wondering whether I had been shafted out of £35. There were no further emails about the order and, to my surprise, it arrived yesterday.It works, as it should, and it allows me now to get rid of my old problematic battery. For that, I am grateful (as well as for the fact that I at least have something to show for my money). Comparing the old and new battery, they look identical to my untrained eye (and I take comfort that HP batteries are manufactured in China). My only question is whether the battery is brand-spanking new rather than used. It looks unused but did not come in original packaging. I'll never know, but my overall goal has been achieved.Would I do it again?? No! Near miss, only use if you are a thrill-seeker. With lots of spare cash.

“Doesn't deliver and doesn't reply”

Company claimed item was delivered to a safe place - nearly a month later we have had no response from anyone, their number does not work and we have paid for an item that we haven't received. POOR POOR customer service. Do not buy if you are in desperate need of a battery and need it to arrive... it won't. Tip for consumers:Don't order if you want it to arrive Products used:None - never arrived Service Value Shipping Returns Quality

“The worst. Its a rip off”

Stay away from them like the plague. They give you the impression they are located in the UK/EU. After waiting for the battery for two months (!) a letter showed up from customs that I need to pay tax on the package from China (!). I refused and opened a dispute on Paypal that refunded my money after a long while. This is the same owner as other sites such as shopping-battery.co.uk b2c-laptop-batteries.com etc. Stay away from anything that is managed by "Viknight".

“Long wait - but worth it.”

After I placed my order I realised that I had probably ordered something from China. This was not obvious at the time I placed my order, I usually feel that I'm 'tech savvy' and have only been conned once (an app that I thought I had only signed up for a free trial) but was misled by the website look and feel (and graphics). However just less than a month after ordering my laptop battery it arrived, worked straight out of the box, but needed a full charge. I've been using it today for several hours before I have had to plug it in to charge it again so all in all I'm happy with my purchase, though not with the long delivery date! If/when I need another battery this would not be my first choice.

“DONT BUY HERE - ALL IS SHIPPED FROM CHINA”

Do NOT buy! They say they have several warehouse but they are always shipped from China, with a pre-shipping label created that looks like they shipped it, until they receive it for half the price I paid... and only then send it with the tracking number created previosly.
