Was going to but the biggest size was 12 and R800 which is about normal retail price. He is a 12.5 or 13.
Their size 11.5's were R500 :/

They should do, mail them to check just to be sure. Can't recall if there was an expiry period on those.

These are parallel imports yet they are more expensive than those that are brought in through legitimate channels?

So the app has some items in the app only deals
If they have to lure you with vouchers (in order to get you to return), they will run a loss on every sale. Not the type of customer they need.

It certainly reduces impulse purchases, so they lose out on those.
I would buy if their prices were good but most of the time they are more expensive than other retailers.

There's the convenience factor too. What is your time worth to drive down to the mall and back? And FNB eBucks customers can get up to 5% back on purchases from Takealot
I bought a Corsair mechanical keyboard from Loot. Takealot was R500 expensive than them,plus they didn't offer all the switch options like Loot.There's the convenience factor too.

There's no convenience for me now that they only do courier delivery. I'm looking for good prices and service and if driving to the mall brings that then it's worth my time.There's the convenience factor too. What is your time worth to drive down to the mall and back?

Until Takealot stocks all the products that people can get at the mall, we will still need to go there anyway. So you can't use that logic. Secondly there are other online retailers.
Also it's a flat 3%, not "up to 5%"

Flat 3% from TakeAlot yet, but you can earn up to 4% online CC usage from the bank itself on platinum reward level 5. So technically that is a combined 7% if you are on platinum with reward level 5, I assume up to 5-6% if you on Gold if you reward level 5.
Exactly, and that's not including buying gift vouchers from the ebucks store, which would give you an even bigger discount, or just buying stuff with ebucks only (which is "free").

OK, so up to 8% as an FNB private client credit card holder then.
Wasn't even thinking of the 3% from TA themselves

Well obviously you have to shop around. Pricing not good, take a pass then
I bought 3 grand of PC stuff from TA in December and the pricing was pretty much the same as one of the local PC wholesalers. Delivery in 2 days before Xmas, I was impressed.
