    5 Stars Inspector Gadget's Supermarket UPDATE 26 09 02 09/09/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Gifts for everybody!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Sometimes things are out of stock

    **Update 26/09/-2** Only a quick one - Free delivery is now only applicable to orders over £10, otherwise it's £2.50. Nothing lasts forever does it :( Gone are the days of ordering a 50p keyring and nothing else.** I came across the Gadget Shop by accident about a year ago. I was (and still am) amazed by the range of gadgets and toys they offer. The great thing about gadgetshop.com is that there is such a diverse range of unusual and just plain strange 'things' that you always wanted but never knew actually existed. Today, their online shop stocks over two thousand different products which ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages cheap, good selection, and gadgets! gadgets! gadgets!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages hmm, none so far, maybe not to everyone taste?

    If you're desperate for last minute gifts for that someone 'special', and is kind of low on budget(like myself since I'm a student who are meant to be poor!!) then one of the best place to visit is gadgetshop.com! As you can see, from clicking on this section on ciao, it's highly recommended by our users! So, I think I'll make this one short then(Not! :) So, why is gadgetshop.com great? I think the name speaks for itself. A little brief history about gadgetshop then;(modified from their site!), the gadgetshop opened its doors for the very first time on March 15th 1991 in the city of Hull with ... more

Well, worry no more. This place is packed with goodies and their prices are fabulous (good news to a poor student nurse like myself!!!)

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Free delivery, fast reliable service, good range of products.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages You'll probably want to buy loads of gadgets!

    Gadgets, I love them. You can never have too many gadgets. The Gadget Shop has always been one of my favorite places to shop, but the shops are nearly always overcrowded with people and you have to fight your way through the shop to see the things you want. But no more, the Gadget Shop is online. Hurrah! And its an excellent service they offer too. The site is very well laid out. Everything you want is easy to find. All the product are catagorised so you can easily find that particular something you're looking for. But what if you need to buy a gift for someone but you don't know what to get ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Free deliver, good prices, good quality

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Site prone to crashing and also slow

    I first heard of the gadget shop when I walked by one of their stores in Bristol, and when I got home, I felt intrigued to see their website. And what a wonder I found!!!! The site boasts even more products that are availed in the store, and the really good thing is that delivery is free!! ~Range of Goods~ There are literally hundreds of products, which you can either do a straight search for, use the gift finder (v.good), or browse using categories, for example ‘clocks’ or ‘teenage boy’. They sell anything modern, from lava lamps to key rings, and wire people to ... more

    5 Stars gadget shop wins again 31/08/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages loads to choose from

    Disadvantages Disadvantages none

    i came across this site yesterday as I was looking around for my son some groovy not too babyish accesories for his bedroom which I have just decorated. I was amazed what a brilliant site it is. I love the high street store anyway but on the website www.gadgetshop.co.uk there are loads of things to choose from much much more than in the store. On the home page there are the summer sale sections, where prices start from under £5 and increase to £5-£10, £10-£15 then over £15. I have looked through these sections are there are some amazing bargains to be had. You can search for an item via the ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great range of products

    Disadvantages Disadvantages customer service support

    If you have a friend or relative with a birthday looming just around the corner, i advise you to take a look in thegadgetshop.com, because there is something for everybody. They don't just stuck hi-tech, futuristic gadgets and gizmo's but also sell interesting items, practical and useful items. I must admit i buy nearly always for myself because i love their products and they look so good around my house, if i was to buy anyone anything, i would probably end up keeping it for myself and buying them something else! They stock eveything from electronic bathroom scales to plasma lamps, torches to ... more

    Advantages Advantages Loads of interesting stuff, brilliant site

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Still waiting for an order....

    UPDATE 04/04/01 I e-mailed the gadget shop to ask where my order was and received a very prompt reply. So far so good. Unfortunately, I was informed that the goods are out of stock and that I have been given a refund. However, I was not notified of this and had I not asked I would never have known. The Gadget Shop did apologise for this but offered no explanation as to why I was not informed, nor any offer any compensation. Will I use them again? Not sure yet. ----------------------------------------​---------------------------------- I discovered the gadget shop on line via my Mum (Hi Mum!) ... more
