Flubit.com am I the last to hear of this?

Submit an Amazon URL to flubit.com and they will try and do you a better deal, typically between 10-15% off the Amazon price.

Anyone used it?

Yes used it before and it does work

Just ordered my first item (Kingston 120GB SSD) which had a 12% saving on the Amazon price.

It may be cheaper but as I have prime I miss the next day delivery!

Sounds like a good idea ... but I hardly buy anything off Amazon these days ..... or anything all! lol!

 

[wonder_lander]

Worst delivery speed ever...still waiting for my SSD to be dispatched!

Love to know what their business model is, they bought from my company as a merchant, we don't pay any commission or anything. One assumes it's just data, but quite a long way to ge tto it...

Apparently they do take commission:

"With Flubit, users say what they want to buy, Flubit groups these users together by product type, and the relevant retailers are automatically informed. This allows retailers to sell in volume (at a discount) to targeted, online consumers. Flubit takes from 2.5%-6% in commission."
