Is connecteddevices.co.za legit?

EDIT: Jumped to conclusions, seems it's a legitimate site, from another thread. Either way, they do a great job of being pretty invisible, I'd steer clear.

Connected Devices - Anyone bought from them

Hi all, I am finally looking to move on from my Google Nexus 6 and get a 5x. Has anyone bought from Connected Devices:-...

Spotted this "New" listing on Pricecheck


The link went to connecteddevices.co.za:

About page is pretty generic (talk of an address). No address or company registration name/number anywhere (about, contact, privacy policy, terms of service etc.)

Think it's a scam? Looks fishy to me.

Haven't heard anyone buy from them before.

Seems to be imported phones so not sure what happens if the phone gets a problem

I have bought from them before, no issues at all. I bought a Motorola Moto G6 from them for R2,999.

Bought a phone from them on 9 Feb, still waiting for it 10 days later, but they are keeping me informed through the entire process.

Bought my previous phone from them, no issues. This was a Samsung S8+ back in 2017, had no problems so can't vouch for their service if you need to return something.

Finally received my order from them.
Took 19 days, but I received the order in good condition and they kept me informed throughout the whole process.
I don't think this thread deserves the SCAM Title.

They are actually legit, prices are ridiculously cheap but I ordered as well and it came through perfectly... I think this statement would be better to say not to judge a website based on the cover page.

GREAT online shopping site with unique devices. Lots of them available all over the world but for some reason blocked/ not distributed in SA.
Using them for close to 10 years now

What is the delivery time if you order from them?

 

[LazyLion]

It's a little bit longer than usual because they only place the stock order once you place your order, but they keep you informed throughout. I think it took three weeks.
