bygamers safe or scam?

Looked better than some other websites posted here... I would investigate trustpilot and their website history. I am on my phone so cannot do much

They have visa mastercard etc listed for payment. Dodgy website someone put before... Only took bank transfer lol when you tried to pay! Have you tried to place an order and see if try that one?

Main sus I found was a gtx 970 rrp £500!

They also suggest they don't have cards in stock but will send within 6 days... Will let you know if extra delays on item page... That doesn't seem great

5 Chestnut Drive Trench Telford, Shropshire TF2 7EQ

That's the address on the website it's a residential address according to Google. I would avoid it. To good to be true

Address says Telford, phone code is for Nottingham.
Website registered on 22 Feb this year.

Personally, I would avoid.

Local pickup available?

I have been looking at the same website to buy a gaming steering wheel, they are usually £200, but this one is £98. I have contacted their email to ask if they are legit and they seem so but didn't provide any proof. I have looked and they use Rapyd Payments to manage the payment. They seem a reputable company so I doubt they would be on a scamming website however I am still cautious. The link below is the merchant agreement Rapyd have with their clients.

Yeh I checked that to!

The owner behind T-Force Retail LTD has another new company started in December 2021.

I was going to say this could just be a start up and they're trying to undercut the market to get their foot in but 2 fresh new companies within a month of each is a bit sus for me. I'd avoid.

Same. Can add 20 3060ti to make a £10K basket and go checkout. Na, lol.

It's not a scam but it's borderline. They actually ship from China using Cainiao. I purchased a 3060 for just over 300 (including shipping), pretty good yea. Here's the thing, although on their site they say 6-10 business days you'll actually get another email that suddenly bumps that 6-10 to a 6-112 days. Avoid.

Did you finally receive the 3060? An have you tried to cancel the order?

Did you finally receive the 3060? An have you tried to cancel the order?

I'm In the same situation orderd 3060 a while ago and had to wait a little bit, I then recieved some tracking information at the start of this month, the item is coming from china, as of today via 4PX tracking (the local courier in china) it's been handed over to the airline, and I assume will be here in England soon, but I'll write an update when I do actually recieve it.

So far not a scam, but not something I'd recommend yet (or ever).

Do you have any news?

The amount of videos Linus has done buying graphics cards from places like Wish and AliExpress, I wouldn't trust that site to deliver the actual legit card but good luck anyway, hopefully it turns out alright.

My partner and I ordered a GPU to take a chance and see. After weeks of waiting, it arrived today. Inside the package was a computer mouse. It could be a genuine mistake, but I doubt it. So we're on our way to the bank to try and charge back the amount.

Disappointing but expected. Good luck with the chargeback!

Ordered 3080TI.
Just in case paid by credit card
Same story, posting from China. Today, after 21 days of waiting received a parcel with face masks!
Called the number on website, surprisingly got answered. Excuses, excuses, promises to sort it out tomorrow. One day will not change much with all these days wasted. Will update what seller will come up with.
Well, one customer gets mouse, other one face masks...
Update.
Got email with yet more excuses and been offered if I am ok to wait another 7 days to get my card. Refused, and requested to cancel my order with full refund. Been told that it can take 3-10 days. Will get back with the update.

If it seems to good to be true...............................................

How did you pay? , I wonder if that makes a difference to how they react / respond

I ordered a 3060 on in late march, 3 weeks later, I get 3x USB mice in the post

luckily I paid with CC, so will be calling them asap

oh well , as someone said, if it seems too good to be true!

As far as I know, anyone of any nationality can open a company in the UK with a £13 annual fee, without residential status, or without living in the UK.

So, any information on "companies-house" is not enough to trust any organization.

Update, finally recieved my "graphics card", just like the previous person it was a mouse. Do not order from here, 300 pounds gone.

How is it gone? why cant you use chargeback or call your card provider?

people who got conned by this website deserve it

Just claim cash back folks… I did it and my bank refunded the money within 5 working days.

Received my 2 mice today for £495, said they would send me the right item... told them I want my money but not holding my breath. Bank should sort it for me

Wonder what's wrong with the site/seller

Ordered a printer from this site. Paid by Credit Card. Now in transit according to the tracking, so will see what happens next or what I receive. If anything a miss will claim back money via credit card ( have done this before ).
Did some research and the company seems legit, run by a slovakian guy.

Ordered laptop got a mouse instead. Royal mail told me that the courier in China booked item with a weight of 100g so definately never was a laptop.

Royal mail also advised that tracking number has been used multiple times by this company.

Always answer calls, but Painful getting a refund. Pay back in bit part then have to chase again, or dont refund as promised.

Mgt Seem to hide behind customer service, and has no power.

Trading standards even commented website looks too perfect, residential address also, and not a single customer on web saying they received the product they ordered.

Did your research include this thread? If it did you'd clearly see they're not a legit company.

lol nice trolling

No order placed before any comments on this site

Avoid like the plague. Definately a scam website. I paid by cc. No refund as promised and guy avoiding answering calls now. Trading standards will be all over this company.

Mr Luka Kuncic - 2 dodgy retail companies, I'd be careful, however I'd be interested to know if anyone got a return address? I'm not going to order because the prices are ridiculously cheap, but it would help people out.

Unfortunately I ordered a gamers chair from bygamers. - It was a bit cheaper but not silly. Tracking sent it somewhere else.... Spoke to Royal mail - they said they would never track anything that size from China. Guess I will have to wait for my mouse to turn up then speak to my bank.........I will update .
Please dont use - its the first time i've been scammed - unless it turns up...

Hello everybody, got to this post too late I think. Ordered an Xbox series X and I assume many others did too. It wasn’t at a ridiculous price around £400 and after a light look it seemed legit yet after reading this section only being young I am now worried I have spent all my money on a scam. Any suggestions as I payed on credit card so I suppose I could get chargeback?

Yes, just phone your credit card company and speak with them about a chargeback.

Yeah I was aware they were going to tell me they were legit and they did but I thought the way they did it would be a tell as to whether they actually were or not, they seemed to get a bit agitated and told me to place my order so didn't feel right so I never purchased from them.

ah name says it all.

Seriously avoid these scamming clowns. Ordered a PS5 last month and got nothing. They gave me a parcel tracking number and I followed it all the way from China to the UK. Got a message that the delivery was unsuccessful, but when I got home there was no Failed delivery Card. The reason was it was never my tracking number as it was collected from Slough 1pm the following day, I live in Staffordshire. I have contacted them frequently and they always respond with empty promises. Doubt I'll even get the refund they promised. Lucky it was purchased on a credit card so protected against these criminals. If criminals is unacceptable then would scamming deceitful rogues be more suitable
