My go-to shop for SA imports

I’ve ordered Bioplus from Zimseller for years now. The few times there was a mixup with my order (incorrect quantity or product) I’ve had good communication with them and they resolved it politely and efficiently.
Don’t understand where the “scam company” and “crime syndicate” reviews come from. They’re a small company that I’m happy to support.
I’m based in London, and have always received my orders.

Warning !!

Warning! Do not buy from Zimseller online!!! Zimseller is a "New South Africa" Crime syndicate, who prey on people ordering online from abroad. You order and pay, but NEVER receive items ordered. Because South Africa is a Haven for criminals, do not expect Justice against online scammers and thieves. Recently I was called by my bank and made aware of a fraud attempt to book over a large amount from my account. However unsuccessful. It should be noted, this criminal enterprise has garnered the attention of international fraud experts.

Absolute pirates in terms of pricing

It is not their fault that the SA postal service is broken so it can take up to 6 months to receive items or sometimes they never arrive at all, but what they do have control over is their pricing - they are an outright rip-off because they know they have a captive audience in the UK who want medications only available in South Africa. For example 100 Adco-dol will cost R130 (£5.64 at today's exchange rate) in Dischem South Africa (where they buy the products from btw) they sell them - excluding postage - for £34.99 - that is over R800, a huge markup just because they can. Competition is coming.

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS WEBSITE.

I ordered pharmaceutical items from this company on 21 August 2024, and sent them £54.91. The goods never arrived. It is now 20 November 2024. I contacted them several times but have received no replies at all. In common with other reviewers, I am forced to conclude that they cannot be trusted, and indeed the whole thing looks like some kind of low-level scam.

I placed an order early August 24 and I have not yet received my goods that I paid for. I have made contact with customer services on numerous occasions but they do not respond. I would not recommend you use this pharmacy if you do not want to throw your money away - disappointing!

A star is too much for their service

A star is too much for their service. I ordered something I didn't get it and after a month I write them to find the product is out of stock. They said is gonna refund me and after 2 months I still didn't get the refund.

Wish I could give a zero

Wish I could give a zero. Also wish I had read all these tales of woe before I ordered. I ordered some Safyr Bleu eye drops because I am not allergic to them. This was in May. I think I have been well and truly scammed out of £24 and I am usually so careful. Most South African sites are so reliable I didn't even consider a scam at the time

No communication and no order

I have ordered from this company for many years and there has been delays before but they usually have responded. I ordered in April and I have still not received a response. I have emailed and sent messages and have not had the courtesy of a response
18/07 i received an email from zimseller claiming that people are now receiving their orders and i should receive my order shortly. It has been 14 weeks now since i ordered. We will see if what they say is true
