FYI

Early adopters received a free extension to March 31st 2018

Today I received an email advising that my memebership will be extended to 2019 free! That’s an extra 9 months

Everyone should keep an eye out before people start cancelling,

More free months?! You betcha.

Need an excuse to keep shopping online? How about free shipping on eligible purchases* for the rest of the year?

As one of our earliest Shipster members, we’d like to thank you once again for your support by extending your free subscription until 2019! Enjoy an extra 9 months of Shipster benefits on us, and pay nothing until 1 January 2019.

If you have any issues, or would like to get in touch, please contact through our help page.

Don’t forget – the more you shop, the more you save and be sure to look out for our special offers emails.

Thanks,
The Shipster Team

Mod. Further info:

If you were an early adopter who joined before 14 November 2017, you will receive full Shipster member benefits for free until the end of 2018. Your first monthly payment of $6.95 will be charged to your preferred payment method as of 1st January 2019.

Therefore this deal appears to be for those users who got the $9.95 for 3 months Shipster membership deal on the basis the Ongoing free trial deal started on 14/11 (this extension is for those who joined 13/11 or earlier, on paid trials not free trials).

All users. Note that the 2 Month Shipster Trial deal is still ongoing.

    • AustriaBargain on 22/03/2018 - 03:09

      For the low low price of 6.95 per month I guess

    My trial was Nov 17 - Jan 18! Very early adopter! :(

    • 8azinga on 21/03/2018 - 20:44

      My trial finished mid Jan and didn't get any offer. Didn't even get an extension to Mar 18 as OP claims.

      • virgo16 on 21/03/2018 - 21:29

        I joined on November 14th for 2 months free. Also no extension. Cancelled before paying for the third month.

        • b0b0 on 21/03/2018 - 22:07

          I joined in November too for 2 months trial. Until now I have paid for 2 months membership out of pocket. Received no trial extension. Is this deal for everyone or targeted?

  • Pecan on 21/03/2018 - 20:28

    I'm still in the trial period and did not receive this email.

    • maxplanck on 21/03/2018 - 20:42

      Nope, no email, and my trial period expires March 31.

    Targeted?

    • MorriJ on 21/03/2018 - 20:41

      Good chance its targeted. I've got a free trial active and no email, so gonna cancel in next week or so if no email comes through.

  • polstralian on 21/03/2018 - 20:47

    On their website it says:If you were an early adopter who joined before 14 November 2017, you will receive full Shipster member benefits for free until the end of 2018. Your first monthly payment of $6.95 will be charged to your preferred payment method as of 1st January 2019.

    I should add, I signed up to this in October 2018 for $9.95 for 3 months

    So maybe only those who paid will get the free extension,

    The email only came through 3pm

    So for me I would have received 15 months for $9.95

      Where'd you buy your flux capacitor? I've found that all the cheap ones on eBay and AliExpress won't work in the southern hemisphere due to the Coriolis effect.

  • snc07 on 21/03/2018 - 20:55

    I paid the $9.95 and also got this email

  • CacheHunter on 21/03/2018 - 20:58

    No love for me. When I log in, I get:

    "Welcome back [my name]. Now that you’ve taken advantage of our 2 month trial offer, we’ll need your payment details to continue your Shipster membership.
    Free shipping1 is just $6.95 a month2 and you can cancel at any time."

    My two months ran from 3 Dec to 3 Feb.
    There was never any extension to March, let alone 2019.

    • blerk on 21/03/2018 - 22:52

      I joined on 26/11 (non-punctual early adopter here) so I miss out.

    • hawkers8905 on 22/03/2018 - 06:24

      Not really, its just a new deal for existing users / targetted offer.

    dont know much about shipster sorry, what does the fee cover? Their commission or handling? I assume you still pay a delivery fee for the goods….?

    • Slippery Fish on 21/03/2018 - 21:59

      If over $25 they ship free unless it's super bulky…

      • Urbanlabau on 21/03/2018 - 22:04

        Nothing's really ever free … especially with Australia Post - the subscription is a sure way to lock you in to those handful of retailers

        • JuryWheel on 21/03/2018 - 22:32

          Gotcha - thanks for the speedy answers :)

        • Slippery Fish on 21/03/2018 - 23:01

          Lol… Make 4 Gmail's. Use . And +1 at the end of each bam 12 months free.

        • hawkers8905 on 22/03/2018 - 06:20

          @Slippery Fish: Well that isn't really going to work, you have to use the same email you make the online purchase with, so every new trial means changing the email address with the retailer too.

        • Slippery Fish on 22/03/2018 - 09:19

          @bricabrac89: yes, yes it does. Accounts are free lol

    Shipster sucks for myer clearance items.. anyone else noticed most "do not qualify for standard shipping".

    Neways.. have cancelled mine already.

    • hihi on 22/03/2018 - 08:12

      it'S not just shipster. i couldnt pay for mine either. i got free shipping with gold membership. they didnt let me pay for the items. their website sucks

  • BeRad on 21/03/2018 - 21:57

    Got this and very happy. It works well and the monthly $5 delivery voucher is a nice bonus. Got some good deals that id have had to pay shipping on if not for shipster

  • fookos on 21/03/2018 - 22:54

    The service must not be doing that well in terms of paid up members so they're going to prop up their member numbers with this user base.

    Doesn't make sense otherwise l - why give another nine month's for free to members who have likely paid less than many have for the service. Early adopters for a delivery scheme - hardly a risky thing that needs rewarding.

    I think the premise for shipster is very good - it's only useful though if you regularly shop with those stores (at $ values below their own free shipping activation).

    • justtoreply on 21/03/2018 - 23:07

      Exactly. The stores they are aligned with are mostly overpriced ripoff merchants.

      Consequently, I haven't yet used shipster despite the free trial. Furthermore, I can't foresee when I will use shipster due to the same reason.

      They aren't tackling the problem, they are tackling the symptom. Waste of time.

    If it isn’t possible to sign up for it now, there is no deal bargain or freebie here.

  • hawkers8905 on 22/03/2018 - 06:17

    My free trial ended in January and I cancelled so I didn't get charged. So how do I continue to get it free as when I login it says my trial has ended and will be charged.

    • 8azinga on 22/03/2018 - 14:53

      This is for people who paid $9.95 for 3 months before the free trial started.

  • lordra on 22/03/2018 - 07:26

    How do I check when I signed up? If I canceled 48hrs ago, am I still eligible for this?

    • 8azinga on 22/03/2018 - 14:53

      If you signed up during the free trial, then you won't be eligible. This is for people who paid $9.95 for 3 months before the free trial started.

    Can't see how this is a bargain. It's already too late to sign up to, and if you do qualify you don't have to do anything.
