Awesome Find. And it works more than once.
Got the Gator Grip for $6.95 shipping and then the Door Gym for my friend (his b-day is coming up) for $27.90 shipped (reg $39.99 + S&H).

I should point out that oddly enough, it's one of the few places that charges more to use Priority Mail than UPS.

Anyone know if the Ding King actually works? It's $29.99 and if you use the coupon, it's only $9.99 plus shipping.

just to let y'all know, this merchant is not rated too highly. on fw people were slamming it left and right. i ordered regardless,i figured 5 bucks ain't that bad if i get screwed.

This site is rated very poorly this topic is stolen from the FW thread and as you can see from thier it is not a good idea to order from this site. You may get your in stock item in a few months or not at all. They charge your cc right away, and dont even wait till item is shiped. And phoney cc charges are likley ass well. Plus they have no customer service no returns and the items ship with no invoices. And more....

Think twice before your order with this one !!!

just looken out;)

I just checked Bizrate.com, and I couldn't even imagine how many unhappy faces I saw on the review. Most of the people said either they never receive the products, or they got them, but damaged, broken... asked for return......etc..

Here is the info in case anyone is needed. The company address is 45 mins away from where I live ... maybe I can go check it out if it exists or not.

I was thinking to go buy the stuff I like since after the coupon is only $10... but what a hassle... I can go buy it somewhere else with less pain.

Joe.

Thanks for the info about this company. I had ordered the Flat Hose and was considering buying some other stuff. Wonder if the BBB has anything on them?

i like the portable lock pick. I wonder if it actually works. I dont think I will be ordering it though, since most of the As seen on TV stuff is overpriced crap. Good luck to all of you that made a purchase

I heard the lock picker works but it isn't automatic -- you still have to have the skills to pick a lock. It will not pick double-barrel locks which most safes and cars are.

Youcansave has gotten horrible reviews on bizrate. I'd recommend not shopping there.

Does anyone know if the Quick Chop works? I'm interested in that and it is only $9 on that site without the coupon.

I'm not sure if I'm going to order now. There are so many complaints on BizRate as others have already mentioned.

Hmmm...

I work in Foster City, which is where this company is supposed to be located. It's a P.O. Box, so I wouldn't know where to start looking for their actual business. It is odd though, that thier phone number is a 510 area code, when Foster City's area code is 650. I'm guessing that their actual office space is somewhere in the EastBay of Cali. :dodgy:

The "flexible" cutting boards slide all over the counter and are useless so please throw them away before incurring any damage. :P

I got mine from AsSeenOnTV (http://www.asseenontv.com/prod-pages/quick-chop.html) ... 2 Quick Chops & 2 cutting boards for $20 + s/h. Not a great deal, but they arrived. *shrug*

Shipping takes about a month, though, so be forewarned. :)

aznaphrodite: We just bought a Quick-Chop for $9.95 from Rite Aid a couple days ago.. Works great actually. I think its one of those things that you will actually end up using alot, rather than using a few times and then putting it away.

my mom has one. Se uses it allot. I think she got hers from the pampered chef or something similar. I have never used it, but it seems to work good

does this coupon have any limitations? I tried ordering that IGEA pore cleaner and it said the coupon is not valid on this product. :confused:

Still disputing with them over no product shipping and cc charge. AVOID!!!!!!

Damn, they screwed me too. They never even informed me that my order was being cancelled.

Everyone who shopped there, please check your order number on their site and then your cc.

They cancelled my order also. The lady I spoke on the phone said the coupon was "invalid". As long as I get the credit back, I'll be happy.

Can anyone vouch for AsSeenOnTv.com?

Has anyone used the Igia Pore Cleanser? Does it work?

Thanks!

I bought it from Heartland America on clearance for like $12 and I returned it. The suction power isn't nearly like they claim and it is pretty hard to clean. You'd fare better with a metal comodone extractor, or the good ole squeez method...

Yeah, sorry for digging up an old topic. I wasn't sure where else to ask about As Seen on TV products.

This company sucks big! They charged my credit card without even notifiying me that my order had even been canceled. Luckily my credit card company already knew about their lowsy business practices & gave me a permanent credit once I called them up. :angry:

It's been almost two months and I haven't received anything and yet they charged my credit card.
These people should be charged with FRAUD!!
