Re: Libazon reviews

All the money that they're taking from customers, as per the owner, they're not touching them nor using them to buy the orders from UK.

The items they're buying for the orders in UK they are using the money from the company investors.
If you search online, you will find financial statements of Libazon UK and you'll see that they have a net loss, and a big one, not a net profit.

Yes one can argue that the money they're keeping here, they're gonna use it later, all of them combined which could be in hundreds of millions till now, so they'll use it in the exchange market and cover all their losses in UK plus make their profits.
And this really sounds like what they could be planning to do.

But me personally, I don't believe that this is the reason of all the delays that's happening with the orders.
They're not delaying your order on purpose, like most people are speculating, after making you wait a few months, and after probably making profit out of your money in the exchange game, and then relying on the customer to be fed up and request a refund.

That's simply not the case.
It's a new company, lack of experience, mismanagement, miscommunication between their offices, untrained staff, unexpected order traffic, covid is also a factor etc etc..
All of the above are most probably the reason of them failing to deliver orders on time.

Even still with all these excuses, you won't need 4 months+ for delivery.
something is suspicious

honestly, I don't think i was been able 4 months ago or today to find products for the same amount of money.
for instance, i bought a 150 pounds product for 660,000 lbp.
I won't do the math, but whatever they are doing, it was worth waiting.
Will i buy again? No I won't

My answer would be a definite NO, unless you want to wait for 7 months or more, deal with an unprofessional team and keep getting told that your item will arrive sometime next week each time you ask for an update

Any idea why their products disappear for days and appear for a short period before disappearing again?

no yet, after attempting to contact them for more than 1 week they lastly replied, that they need 2 weeks for the "refund team" to issue the refunded amount

hope their "refund team" isn't like their customer support team and take another 7 months to refund me

You cannot call it that. Libazon existed since 2017 and served thousands of orders without issues.
Me and couple of friends did orders in the millions of LL around start of 2020 (start of the pandemic) and we all received all of our orders in 3 to 6 months period.
Nowadays yeah recent orders have not been delivered but payments are being refunded so it's not a Ponzi scheme. I think the LL situation screwed them more than it benefited them but they definitely had some connections to deal with it.
Could have they invested the LL into USD and then refunded the LL amount when its value diminished?! Yes... but we cannot make that accusation while: 1- they did all the orders for 3 years at least, 2- they refund all of the unprocessed orders.

Not trying to defend them, as I don't even know who owns them, but I'm trying to be fair and not call anything and anyone a Scam.

Re: Libazon reviews

Existed since 2017? Like legaly? Do you know anyone who ordered from them in 2017,2018?

It’s definitely another ponzi scheme, early birds always benefit from ponzi.

They are not abiding by the terms they set, they are stalling to deliver and to refund.

If this is not a ponzi scheme then what is it

Thing is, you fall for ponzi and you can make use of it.
This thread, is pretty clear and provides enough 'red flags' as of when you can no longer 'make use of' libazon.

I bought a Herman Miller chair from Libazon 2018, and few other orders the prices were normal (item wise), but shipping was a steal. Around 18$ for a +20kg chair.

I'd say it depends on what you ordered, how much did you pay, is it really urgent for you to receive it ASAP or not, is it important enough for you to wait for it to be delivered, is refunding gonna benefit you in terms of its value, do you really need that money etc...

I personally would wait if the item is not urgent and/or if the paid amount has lost most of its value and is not of a great benefit to me now.
And I would keep contacting them each couple of days.

Re: Libazon reviews

I have a couple of orders from late last summer totaling just under 3 million LL.  If I ask for my money back, it will be half the value when I paid for it and they aren't time sensitive items (bedroom stuff mainly).  That being said, I cannot recommnend anyone order anything
from them until they show a consistent pattern of TIMELY fulfillment of orders.
