Has anyone had any experience of WISH the online retailer? I've heard stories about not receiving what was advertised but they seem to get half decent reviews on TrustPilot.
The reason I ask is I collected loads of free hardwood flooring today that I need to De-Nail. Rag And Bone man on YouTube bought a Pneumatic De-Nailer from Amazon which he said was quite decent. (See Review)
It's £84 on Amazon.

Obviously he'll get a kickback which i don't mind but's only £45 on WISH and it looks the exact same.

Can't help with the question about Wish but Trustpilot don't publish bad reviews, at least they have never published one of mine. Do wish accept paypal? this would give a certain amount of protection.

i never ever look at reviews they are pointless, they serve no purpose other than to manipulate
the ones that pay the bills dictate the outcome
off course, some will be more useful than others but never the whole story

I also found
This one £52.50
This one £76.04
This one £54.07
Yes, all the ones I listed are on Amazon, but if you get one and are not happy, you can send it back, you can't do that with wish (Seen lots of comments about wrong size, should have checked size, about stuff people got from wish.)
Oh, I also read, that eye protection is a MUST, ear defenders are a good idea.

Would you hit a nail with a shoe because you don't have a hammer? of course not, then why work on anything electrical without a means of testing Click Here to buy a "tester" just because it works, does NOT mean it is safe.
If gloom had a voice, it would be me.

Inept people use the QUOTE BUTTON instead of the QUICK REPLY section

Thanks SE. I ordered the third one you posted a few days ago. The first one has zero reviews so thought that a bit strange.
Delivery isn't until 10th January though.
I did some more research after my original post. It seems some are complaining Trustpilot has let it's standards slip and allowing some dodgy reviews. Shame as I always relied on Trustpilot.
