Kalahari.com vouchers thread

[ichigo]

I think you have answered your own question?

Yeah, just replace the word "prices" with "profit"
and then replace the word "are" with "is"

Well who buys from them when the same item is cheaper elsewhere with a better service delivery

Also the search button sucks on Kalahari compared to Takealot.com

How does Kalahari make money when their prices are more than Takealot.com and sometimes the retailers.

Depends on what you wanna buy sometimes. I always do a comparison with other stores before purchasing and if shelve prices match then I buy from Kalahari and apply vouchers. .

Bought maintenance pool equipment and prices matched the stores I visited. Found TAKEALOT R80 more expensive than Kalahari.

Seems everything I check is R200-R300 less at Takealot.com I guess it depends on what I like

True.. Kalahari don't have a wide variety compared to TAKEALOT. Kalahari have way too many vouchers. Example TAKEALOT sell airtime Kalahari doesn't. Majority of people buy airtime with vouchers they receive from TAKEALOT. Some people are signing up with cell c cause of the vouchers.

I don't know why people are always hating on Kalahari.com. I've always had good service from them. I do a price comparison, and go with whomever is cheapest. You will find some items on Kalahari that are not on Takealot, and vice versa.

Lets see how this plays out
I have had decent service before this, lets hope it doesnt change....

Hi onlineshopperdude,
We're having a little trouble, but not to worry

Unfortunately we're struggling to source some of your products. We have plenty of suppliers so we're working to source one for you, but we just wanted to warn you that this process may push our expected delivery date out a little.

We'll keep you posted though, and no news is good news, so if you don't hear about this again, then everything is still on track.

If you want to find out more, give us a shout on 0861 52 52 42 and we'll gladly answer any questions.

Kind regards,
The kalahari.com team

I agree, I always compare prices and find that Kalahari is cheaper. Then they have really good sales on hundreds of products at a time (unlike TA which has only about 10 a day which get sold out in no time). Then the vouchers on top of that.

Twice I have had small issues with KDN but the cost savings outweigh the troubles.

Cool price wish they had the cargo train as I have this already

Edit: Check the cart price as it may not reflect the special price

Everything I want on special in out of stock .

I haven't had any issues with Kalahari.
I ordered my Samsung Galaxy S5 Metallic Black S View Cover on Friday around 12h30 and it got delivered around 11am yesterday.

I wouldnt hold my breath.
Best part is now I have to request a refund - why cant they just do it automatically?

Pre ordered Fifa months ago, now it seems I'm not getting it tomorrow on launch day and now only around next week Tuesday. Feel like cancelling the order and buy via Origin.

I've also pre-ordered FIFA, and i've emailed them 3 times since the 16th asking them about it and haven't received any response. I will cancel if I don't get a response tomorrow.
Origin was more expensive but at least I would've gotten the pre-order gold pack bonus, I dont think the Kalahari version has the bonus.

Had an order cancelled under similar circumstances last week, refund was done automatically. Took about 3 working days.

You can still pre order tonight to get the gold pack bonuses from Origin. I just got an email from Kalahari saying my order is dispatched. Hopefully I will get it tomorrow. I had to use my ebucks due to budget constraints, otherwise I would've ordered from Origin.
