Geek - Smarter Shopping for Android
Overall Geeks has a lot to offer. However some products are not described very well thus one ends a little short sighted. On the other hand, you can depend on Geek to always have your back. So, the interaction balances itself out. The only problem is that for the merchandise comes in a slow boat from China. On a scale from 1 to 10 I rate Geek an 8+.
I order a couple of dollars worth of product to see if this was a good app. One thing came and the other two didn't. I submitted serval emails to customer service inquiring, why did the order never show up but the app said it did. No response only automated emails. I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt and waited for a response and to see if my order would magically appear. Never happened. Glad it was only a few dollars instead of more. So good bye Wish app. Never again.
Even though i have no money, this is a good way to see what items they have, and with the prices at what seem to be rock bottom, it makes me want to buy those items. The reward level system makes me also want to buy them even more quickly. What are you waiting for? Christmas? Download it today and start getting yourself some points!
More than half of my purchasers were amazing and satisfactory. You just need to double check and re-read everything carefully before purchasing things. Look through ALL pictures and ALL reviews, also. TRIPLE check. There's a lot of room for error from both ends. Other than that, again, more than half of the products are amazing and fantastic. What get what you pay for, and sometimes, you'll pay less for something really amazing and worth the time and money spent.
It's a good app that's laid out well, BUT some of the offers just look too good to be true. For example, I was looking for a new watch, and I saw one that used to be £820, and is now £15: this is most likely either an error or a scam. I have just made a test purchase to see if it's legitimate...will update review in a few weeks
Addictive app, constantly finding neat little things you can't get just anywhere. Most items are high quality for the price, but have run into some cheapos. Shipping is usually right on time or a couple days early! Only had one or two disappear in transit, but Geek refunded me as promised! Recommend it to anyone!
Horrible. PLEASE DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE! they take your money for something you ordered and keep switching dates so you can't get a refund. If I could go lower than 1 star for rating this, I'd do it 1,000 times. This and wish. They both are the same thing. Both of them are trash.
It's a gamble when you order. In the last 3 months I've ordered 23 items from Wish and Geek. Out of the 23 eleven never made it to me. They did refund my money every time but it's frustrating when you order some thing, wait a month and a half and then not receive it. Especially when you order for a birthday. I keep the app installed now just to browse. If I find something I like I just get it off eBay.
Order products ordered and never received half. NO CUSTOMER SERVICE NO REFUNDS ordered several things from this site. Most products are very cheap and cheesily made!!! Those were the products I did receive. I still have not gotten the other half of my order it has been 2 months and customer service is ignoring me for a refund. Not a site to do business with ever!!! they are run by WISH so they are just as bad.
Ordered 4 months ago, still waiting on my orders. So, wait time is horrendous, not worth my time waiting for my items to arrive when they could have got lost on the way. Not tracking available with in the country so have no idea if it even ended up here. Got 2 out of 6 items shipped to the door. Got refunded for the rest. Your better off going to Amazon or Ebay. At least you'll get your stuff on time
It's very unorganized. If you search for women's coats, you het handbags, shoes, makeup and other, completely unrelated items. This is so frustrating that I just gave up looking. The only 2 things that I have bought were nothing like the items for which I was looking. I'm not sure I will bother trying again!
Loved this app in the beginning, but after a few orders I noticed my items were never arriving. After contacting support they offered me a refund on the objects that did not come. This was fine until it happened 2 more times. How does an app that's only job is to buy and sell items consistently mess that up?
OK geek, now many items have changed prices to "free" , just pay shipping. But, the shipping has gone up exactly that amount. Don't BS me, this is deceitful. My wish list of $1 and $2 dollar items now says free for everything. But it's all the same price in the cart. Liars. Stop insulting my intelligence. Put it back the way it was, we all know nothing is free.
So far I havent had issues so I can not comment on how the support is. But prices are cheap and items although some arrive fast and others take longer then 2 weeks they are of pretty good quality but shop with a little care.
What a company... they rip you off and I have the screenshots to prove it... than when you speak to costumer service you get ten different reps... everything is fake or of poor quality. Counterfeit items wrong sent colours items not showing up... Never ever buy a mem card or thumbstick usb drive. The quality wont be the greatest for items bought and shipping will take a long time aswell...assuming it does show up. Terrible... Use eBay it's cheaper and faster.
Today is my first encounter with geek, or even Wish for that matter. After a little hiccup with my PayPal account upon linking, the issue was resolved and it was off for the races. The products are inexpensive at first glance. You will find some mainstream, knock-off-looking stuff, also some very unique designs, with features to rival breaks leader coming out of, China; or, at least, for the most part I think. Now I have been using Geek for about a month, and have order a dozen or more items. Their pricing entices you to buy, when shipping on small items can often be more than the item itself. And Geeks MSRP they list next to price you pay, can not be retail. Maybe in a perfect world, but not in this one.
Just like Wish, but more of the things I like. I've been using the Wish app for over a year now and I love all of the great deals I find on fishing, camping and other outdoor gear. Very rarely do I feel that "I got what I paid for" because most of the time I am pretty impressed with the quality. I absolutely love Wish and Geek. They save me a lot of money this time of year.
I used this app for about 2 months before my bank was suddenly hacked with a barrage of fraudulent charges all from google play accounts in china. and my bank says they have been hit with hundreds of these types of fraud recently... im not sure about security of this app and now im afraid to use it again because no one seems to know where the hack origionally occurred. i cannot say that this app allowed the hack but this is the only app i use with known connections to china. anyone else have similar problems?
I've loved all the items I've bought and if I didn't, returns were easy. Also, learn to read the description or view the pictures before you give a bad rating idiots. If someone fits in the palm of your hand in a photo, it's not a full sized camp stove so don't give a rating of 1 and say it's too small and not good for at a campsite... Dumbass.
Dishonest sales at it's worst. The 'deals' are usually the same as you could get on Amazon, but without the free 2 day shipping. Sometimes they're decent. The reviews appear to be fake as often as not. Hard to tell for sure, but there are signs.
I'm a mail order freak. The app seems to work well -- so far. But I'm about to put it to the test. I might make adjustments on the stars. We'll see. The 512GB memory card is priced at $10 but when I go to buy it the price is $16. That's shady business & you need to fix it!!! And the extra price wasn't shipping.
Scam i havent received an order in over 6 months even tho i have ordered 20+ items.. sick of being refunded 3$ and waiting MONTHS for nothing. Ive spoken to 3 guys at work and they dont receive anything from this app either. In short its a scam
Okay people. All of these items come from China, so it can take a month or more to get to you, so please stop complaining about that in your reviews. Also most clothing items are small and you need to order a few sizes up. That's why we need HELPFUL reviews. So you can read them and stop repeating yourselves. Also, please stop leaving reviews if you haven't even OPENED the item! Telling us you received it is useless information.

This shop is a joke. Been buying from internet for 5 years. First time I see such ridiculous prices. Over inflated ,and then hit a 90% discount, as if we idiots don't know the going price of things. Really pathetic. I suggest buyers to have a look on other shops before even thinking to order here. Can't stop laughing with their high priced offers. YUNEEC Breeze at €599? Really? You are a bad joke
The store is good... but the bogus prices and j8st hoe much money you save is a lie. The can price anything at $1000 and sell it for a $1 and make it a false pricing then it really costs. But good small products if you learn how to brows.
I ordered a few products back in the beginning March and not one product has come to me. The site should want to keep customers but with waiting and waiting over a month passed delivery date I am starting to dislike it.
I have spent hundreds of dollars on the Wish and Geek apps, and actually have an active order of 18 items right now. I will no longer use this app until they get rid of this update.. it sucks! It's horrible and unusable now! You can't look at anything without the app locking up my phone, the reviews are gone, I just hate it. The update before this one was perfect, why did you screw it up?!
Unfortunately I can't get this app to log in on the Sony Xperia X Compact using either Facebook or Google click login methods - unlike my Old phone. This has meant that I have had to go uninstall it until the app is fixed
Awesome prices from an easy to use app. The only down side is the wait for many products is 3 to 4 weeks since it comes over on the slow boat from China. If you don't mind the wait then they can't be beat/
I haven't received my orders yet, but I do read reviews beforehand. Most people seem as pleased with the products here as in the pricey places. And I certainly have fun looking around! I was able to find what I really needed for way less, and I have every confidence that I'm going to be pleased.
Ordered 21 items, only half showed up and not if the refunds were full refunds because after you buy it never shows what you paid at the time. They were prompt with trying to resolve issues. Ordered a bunch more items and waiting to see what round 2 brings. Definitely read descriptions. E.g. ordered dual DVD players for a vehicle and recieved 2 mounts for dvds instead. The cost was the right price for DVD but to expensive for mounts
If you're in the market for something they offer, it's a good way to see how much better you can do here than retail. I have had speedy delivery and excellent product, as described. Some items are obviously cheesy, buyer beware!
Im very wary at moment as i joined wish and they took seven grand from my bank and no way in hell did i order that much gear and at the prices they were saying id have been lucky to spend one thousand. As they both have something to do with wish i will wait before giving five stars.
Have done business with them for several years price comparison is key along with getting someone to buy along with with you at same time. Being careful to keep up with refunds being charged back. Other wise great company with individual stores competing to get the lowest price.
This app is rubbish. Full of fake deals and click bait. Customer service is elusive and unhelpful. Good luck ever getting a refund, and half the products never arrive. Only good for buying cheap phone charging cables or funny gifts.
I can't access without creating an account. If I create an account and am not interested in site I have already exposed to them my personal information and payment information. I can delete account but if my android preferences are set typically wrong, if my phone is stolen, bad guy can check app list, reinstall and android will provide bad guy with account password and payment information and all they do is change shipping address and go shopping on me.
I have ordered 3 or 4 items and all were extremely cheap price wise. The products I purchased seem okay. The thing that was most impressive was after not receiving several products "Geek" contracted me and asked if I still wanted the products or be refunded my money. I said I would prefer one of the items ordered and the 2nd refunded. In 3 days I received my product via U.S. Mail & then notified me the next day the other product had been refunded. Great Service
Terrible customer service... If you can even find it. A friend referred me, but when I put in their referral code the app wouldn't accept it. When I finally found a way to contact customer service, I got a pre-formatted response that didn't have anything to do with the problem. Can't imagine if something went wrong with an order.

I received my free gifts for signing up for geek and mama. Zipper head phones and the perfum refill container. Love both of them!!!!! Ordered christmas gifts. Waiting for them to be delivered. Had to add to my review. This app is awesome and very very addictive. Yes it does take stuff a while to come it. But hey after a while u forget u ordered and next thing u know its like it is ur bday. Most of the stuff is very good and some is carp. U just have to read the reviews and descriptions.
