    4 Stars Stuff You Don't need... but really, really want 15/10/2003
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Excellent Product range

    Disadvantages Disadvantages High Prices, Delivery charges

    "Stuff You Don't need... but really, really want" Produced by www.Online-Shop-Guide.co.uk Introduction To sum up I Want One of Those (IWOOT) as a gadget or Adult toy shop doesn’t really credit the site enough. I feel IWOOT sum up the point of the shop pretty well in their own tagline “Stuff you don’t need… but really, really want” Ranging from ultra modern house hold furnishings to the most technologically advanced toys – everything for sale is non essential. However some of the unique, attention grabbing items for sale in IWOOT can’t help to tempt even the most restrained of shoppers. The ... more

    5 Stars Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! 31/01/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages vast, varied and excellent value

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Temptation may prove too much!!

    Have you ever wondered what to get the man in your life? Maybe you've only known him 2 weeks, or maybe you've been going for a steady two years, surpassing the honeymoon period and have settled into a life of comfortable coupledom. Almost every lady will be wondering, (particularly at this time of year) what on earth you get for your significant other for the "day d'amour" or Valentines Day as it's nostalgically known. I, like many, have been trawling the shops and the net for the last few weeks, in an attempt to get some pre-rush inspiration. Because in fairness I don't have a clue! I mean ... more

    5 Stars I want one of those, no, I really do. 03/10/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great gadgets and gifts for everyone!!!!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages An empty wallet.

    There are very few things in life that make a man truly happy. Gadgets is one of them. Imagine being able to shoot 24 elastic bands in 5 seconds from a doubled barrelled ‘shotgun’, or shooting some pool with a real full size pub pool table. All this fun and more courtesy of Iwantoneofthose. You can get almost anything you would ever need from this site…..OK, maybe not ‘anything’ but on the scale of my priorities, just about anything! They even sell ex-Russian Army fighter planes for about £15,000 (yes, you did read that correctly!!). Some example of my recent purchases are: Elastic Band Double ... more

    5 Stars I Want Never Gets.....It Does Now 30/11/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Loads of ideas, items I've not seen anywhere else

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not having enough money to buy everything you want

    Imagine if you will, some of the most unusual gadgets, gizmos and gift ideas and the chance are that you will find them at I Want One Of Those.Com The catchphrase for the site “stuff you don’t need…but you really really want” could not be truer - I am amazed that we have managed to get through life without these handy gadgets and gizmos to assist us in every situation. I am extremely impressed by the speed of delivery, presentation of the items, information about the items and ease of use of the site. Everything I have bought has been of high quality and value for money ... more

    4 Stars Gift buying made easy 19/11/2003
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Fast shipping, easy ordering, good selection, good for unusual gifts

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Do you really need cufflinks that hold aspirin?

    Details: Online ordering: www.iwantoneofthose.com Telephone ordering: 0870 241 1064 Postal/fax ordering: (using catalogue and form) Fax: 0208 655 7593 PO Box 26953, London SE21 8WL Customer service line: 0870 241 1066 open Mon-Thurs 8am-9pm, Fri 8am-7pm, Sat 9am-5pm and Sun 10am-4pm (you can leave a message anytime though, and they promise they will ring back!) I do lots of online shopping - not only because I hate the christmas crush, but I enjoy the convenience of ordering from my desk. I had first read about I Want One of Those in Arena magazine, which my boyfriend reads (bit laddish, but ... more

    5 Stars I really want one of those! And so will you! 30/04/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages 1000's of gifts all on one site

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None at all

    When it comes to buying anyone a present, I always have a look on this website to find the perfect gift. Much of the stuff for sale here, isn't readily available to buy on the high street or in shopping centres. There are plenty of very unusual gifts, which the recipient has most likely never seen before. There is a huge selection on the website, and you are guaranteed to find something for anybody, any age. One thing i like is that you can select on the website, who you are buying the gift for, e.g girlfriend, you are then shown a huge list of gifts that may be suitable to buy your partner ... more

    5 Stars Interesting if nothing else 08/04/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Loads of crap stuff to buy

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Some very expensive stuff

    This is one of the daftest websites I have ever come across, but enjoyed the visit! Read on, my friends! This site is for stuff you don't need, but really want! If, like me, you can't afford to spend too much, then pick a price range from the category: Under £10 £10 - £20 £20 - £50 £50 - £150 No limit For instance, for under £10, you can buy: Sabertooth Cigar Cutter - £8.45 SAS Survival Handbook - £5.00 Shark Bottle Opener - £4.95 Or, at the other end, how would you fancy an 'Alien Deluxe Abduction Kit' for £499.95. I'm serious here! In this price you will acquire: 4 acres of moon a floating ... more

    5 Stars It does exactly what it says on the tin! 26/06/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Many, see review.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Debt due to IWantOneOfThose.com!

    Alas - An online shopping website that shamelessly preys on its victims with a true to the point motto! "Stuff you don't need... but really, really want ™" Nothing, absolutely NOTHING on the website is what you NEED, but if you can actually log onto this website and say there is nothing on there at all that you are atleast tempted to buy, then well, you have great restraint compared to myself. So, enough blabbering. Here are my opinions on the key functions of the site: Layout / Design & Navigation: Great ease of use. Nothing is more than one click away. Some websites you have to go several ... more

    5 Stars Gadgetshop gone mad 16/07/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages great original gifts, Fun stuff to look at, a helpline if you get stuck

    Disadvantages Disadvantages not many products, mostly too expensive

    On a boring afternoon I decided to be sad and try lots of different phrases with .com on the end. That's when i stumbled across a fantastic site - www.Iwantoneofthose.com. Fantastic to look at, bright colours and really does give the gadgetshop a run for their money. If you're interested then read on!! "stuff you don't need... but you really really want" The site is pretty straight forward and all of their products have been sorted into categories. If you are on there to have a laugh then i suggest you choose the price category on the left hand side. Obviously the higher the price, the wackier ... more

    5 Stars Your wallet does not want one of those 03/11/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Gadgets Galore

    Disadvantages Disadvantages WARNING - will seriously damage your wealth

    Like FireBox, IWOOT (iwantoneofthose) sells gadgets/boystoys/retro stuff. On this site you will find everything from airsoft mini guns, to mathmos tumble lights (a recent addition to the site). The site itself is stylishly designed and layed out thoughtfully. The products are sorted into various categories eg. retro, games etc. All the products have high quality pictures and good descriptions (there are also humerous buyer reviews, for a good unbiased opinion). Although the site is fairly expensive, there are products available to suit all budgets. Searching by price is aided by a useful set ... more
