Hey guys,

Saw a great deal on their site (https://excelltronics.co.za/) with great reviews on Hellopeter (which is almost odd given how Hellopeter usually is) and on Facebook, but no reviews on google at all.

I did see another thread on this (https://mybroadband.co.za/forum/thr...tps-excelltronics-co-za-online-store.1189870/), but that was a while ago so I wanted to get the most recent perspective/knowledge from anyone who has dealt with them and how the experience was.

I want to pull the trigger, but am hesitant.
Any personal perspective on the company would be great.

Thanks!!

Thanks @Willie Trombone, did you see the previous thread on this?

2 of the members mentioned positive experiences. Does that carry any weight in your view?
 
@Willie Trombone , no unfortunately not. I was hoping to get a clearer picture from this forum, but it's just not becoming clear yet.

The facebook reviews and hellopeter reviews seem too good to be true almost and no google reviews for a company in existence for 2+yrs is also strange.

The gmail address and cellphone contact only is also not helping with the comfortability.

The main reason I started to think it may be legit was the previous mybroadband thread with the one guy being an executuve member (Shadow_Man). It could still be false though and I don't have other supporting evidence to verify them.

Guess I'm stuck wondering for now
 
I ordered a Samsung S23+ from them and it was delivered the next morning in JHB. They are actually legit and very interactive on either their email address or WhatsApp. I have attached the Invoice, waybill for courier and photos of the Phone once I received it. I did also check the IME number and it was valid for the specific phone I purchased. I am happy with my purchase. Hopefully this review will help those in doubt of the online store.

One post wonder- are you a shill for this company?
Unfortunately, I am not a shill. I have no association with the company except for the purchase I made yesterday. I am actually responding from the phone I purchased from the online store. As for me having a single post, it is understandable I did look for reviews prior to my purchase and saw that people were hesitant to trust the store. I pulled the triggered and was on target. Now I am just reporting feedback.

IF it helps (as mentioned in the thread) I ordered last year too and I've got thousands of posts.

They are very much legit and I would definitely re-use them when I get a new phone.


Still using the iPhone 13 I bought.
 
Yes, I created this account just to reply here as this is where I came when I was looking up Excell Tronics.

I think the person who mentioned her phone was shipped from Durban to Cape Town made me take the plunge.

I purchased a phone, sent the proof of payment and informed that they will ship it when payment reflects in their bank account. In the meantime, I purchased another phone and requested a refund, which reflected in my bank account so happy to report that they are indeed legit
