demonboy Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 I'm looking to buy the Hero6 in Thailand. I've used Lazada a number of times for non-electronic gear and not had problems but I figured something like a GoPro might be more susceptible to fraud/copies. I figured a cash-on-delivery might be the best option as I can inspect the item when it's delivered. Wondered if anyone out there has bought a GoPro on Lazada and whether they have any recommended vendors? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackdd Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Why lazada and not just a regular electronics shop? For example JIB or banana IT both have online shops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris2004 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 I have bought numerous electrical items via Lazada and never had a problem, or fraud. A go pro is not that expensive. Better though if the item is sold via Lazada itself than a 3rd party vendor. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessi Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 I just bought a dash cam on LAZADA, paying COD. It arrived today the driver would not let me open the package before I paid. I cancelled the order. I have 2 more orders coming this week and they will both be cancelled. I have spoken to LAZADA about it & they tell me that its the policy of Kerry Express.

JAFO Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 I agree buy through Lazada not 3rd party. They offer 7 day no hassle return policy so just order on credit card. COD will not allow you to open and inspect on arrival. You can only decline purchase when Delivery person shows up. If you accept on COD good luck getting your money back later. I bought a few GoPro accessories off Lazada for my Hero5. No issues. The pkgs all had the Authentic Seal and worked perfectly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall I wanted to order a usb drive that was listed by JIB on Lazada at 150Bht, so I thought well I have to be in Pattaya anyway so I'll pick it up at JIB tukcom. At the shop the very same drive was 225 Baht 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfokevin Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 (edited) No problem... Just when you do a search choose "Fulfilled by Lazada" its an option right below COD to show you the ones sold by them... Also try a search on the following website... They can give you a price comparison from different seller... https://www.priceza.com Edited June 19, 2018 by sfokevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand why you are not allowed to remove the inner packaging as it makes it unsellable if you then refuse to accept it. Why would you want to remove the inner packaging anyway as it tells you nothing about whether the item will work OK. Lazada have good return policies should you have a subsequent problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessi Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Late yesterday LAZADA called me about this matter. When I told the lady the reason for refusing the item she said that many people have been complaing about this and she seems to think that Kerry Express may change their policy. To the previous poster, I was not allowed to open any part of the package. What is wrong with wanting to check the product before paying for it, unless you have something to hide.

BritManToo Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 I had this problem today, Lazada COD, Kerry arrives says 116bht, I say it's 166bht. Lets open the package and look at the bill ...... NO ...... takes 116Bht. I open the package after he's gone, ticket says 166bht. What a plonker! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never had a problem getting my money back, into my Lazada wallet in a couple of days. Bought something for my computer, didn't work, emailed them, immediate refund, didn't even want it back. I love Lazada, and AliExpress, how did I live before these companies existed? (In the UK it's Amazon) Edited June 20, 2018 by BritManToo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HooHaa Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 (edited) https://www.goprothai.com/เช็คราคา/ seems to have better prices than lazada, there is a bundle deal for 16,900 seems rather reasonable. i wakeboard and we shoot alot but use cheaper versions like sj cam because its easier to walk away from it when lost. the gopro hero 6 is sweet though Edited June 20, 2018 by HooHaa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Post office or 7-eleven.If COD, then you will be refunded to your bank acct within 4 days or so after they receive the return. I know several people who have bought stuff via lazada without any issue.But yes, they do not allow opening the box and check before handing over the money. That would be nice though. If it is that serious, just go to a physical store and buy what you need. Sent from my LDN-LX2 using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dddave Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 I use Lazada frequently and have never had a problem returning an item. You just print out an online form and take it along with the package to a nearby 7-11. Takes about 5 minutes there while they do the intake.
