Um, at least one site I found has some horrible reviews of these guys.

Has anybody here ever bought anything from them (anybody who's been a member longer than a couple of months)?

**cookie_monster** · 01-31-2011,12:21 AM

thats true...like i said i couldnt buy anything because it doesnt ship to where i am so i stopped there and didnt bother to look them up....if you type ZWEE into google search you straight away get "ZWEE Scam"...so i guess its up to you whether you try it or not...some reviews do say positive stuff but they could be fake too...

might have to change the title on the thread...

It appears they are not legitimate at all, but merely fish customers in with cheap prices that a "competitor's price" seems to beat. The scam here is that they intend for you to discover the cheaper price and go to that site, giving them a referral... if you order form them, they either sit on your money forever until you dispute it and get a refund, or they send you an e-mail saying it's out of stock and refund you then (if you are lucky) - or in cookie_monster's case, they simply tell you they can't ship to that location.

So it's a fake site masquerading as a legit one, with the intention of sending you off to a "cheaper competitor" as the gimmick to get ad referrals.

Wow Ben, never really thought about this type of scam, thanks for the info...
Tho like i said before, 99% of the time, if it seems to good to be true, is because it is a scam lol

Beat me to it Ben.. We had a long discussion about these types of sites in a marketing class I had in college a few years back.. These types of sites are legal because they are just referals..

Like he said, if you do order something, they won't send the item, they sit on it and hope the dispute time expires using a bunch of BS excuses, or, (we looked at a few spots) some have a clause that say there is a 15-30% REFUND processing fee. You know, because automated payment systems require loads of manual labor.
