Lazada Getting More Devious

My difficulty is actually logging in most times it is OK, about 1 in 5 times it is not and I have to go through security checks and get a one time security no. This is despite being a regular customer for many years and using the same email and password. This company sure sucks badly.

If you are running an add-blocker it can cause sign-in problems.  Also, if in Chrome,  try clicking the "re-load" button, top left.  That usually makes my sign in work.  Also, when browsing Lazada and a page won't come-up, do the same.

Usually a very simple answer, the shipping can vary dependent on your location. The price initially seen can change dependent on the variation chosen on some products, and also influenced by multi buys and other factors.

I dont go with the notion that there is some algorythm or hidden gremlin at work.

Lastly, the sellers control most of these factors not Lazada who mostly provide the platform for others to sell upon.

 

Seller's address was Chonburi.  I am in Chonburi.  Hardly a distance justifying a 50%  delivery increase.  Single item, no variations. Very simple. Price displayed not the price charged.

The worst thing about Lazada is they won't publish reviews that mention counterfeit goods on their website, which is a massive red flag as far as I'm concerned.

Even worse :They don't give you the option to write a review about some of the electronic junk they are selling. Stuff from China that breaks down after only a week. You can't warn potential customers that this item is not worth a single Baht. You might as well flush your money down the toilet. I understand that Lazada can't test all their merchandise, but let customers review not only the quality stuff they are selling and but also the junk.

Yet to have a negative experience on Lazada, I'm sure it'll come but for now very satisfied for several years.

I use the shopping basket as a "hold" for something I'm comparing or just to hold until purchase....

It's not unusual to have the prices of items reduce/lessen while sitting in the cart....

Beware.....Chips DON'T Taste the same as Deep Fried Chips....

Wanted it mainly to cook whole chickens, I don't like the store cooked chickens

Its the vendors....    many of them are just scam artists trying to get ‘site traffic’... 

 

I commonly have the issue of finding the item I want for a reasonable price... I put in the order...

Wait for a week, still the order is not processed, then I am told they are out of stock. 

When searching again, I see the same item in the same store for more money... they’re just trying to draw in traffic...  some of this makes using these shops on Lazada a PITA time waster.

Someone gave me an air fryer and I wasn't impressed. Also the handle broke off the metal basket the first time I tried to use it for chips.

Must've Had Too Many Chips in the Basket then " Eh  555 ??

99% discount on wireless ear phones. No returns it said. Better off buying retail.

Yeah, seems Lazada are getting shadier these days. Buyer beware/take note.
