Good morning,

Kidstuff is offering free 100 reward points which is equal to $5 worth of credit when signing as a new customer. If you choose to subscribe to their newsletter, you get another 50 reward points and an email with the 15% off code of news1897. However, credit only can be redeemed with every 100 reward points.

The website is a little lagging and their checkout page is terrible, I cannot get the 'place order' and 'add coupon' button to work on the final checkout page and ended up buying something more than $5 and checkout through PayPal.

Tips to checkout with the website faster:

  1. Go to my account and save your address after sign up. The website is not always responding to free shipping option to appear when entering address in the final checkout page

  2. If you are using the 15% off code, add the code in 'view basket' page instead of the final checkout page.

  3. If you can't get the Place Order button to work in the last page, maybe do what I did, buying something more than $5 and checkout through PayPal.

This could potentially a freebie post if anyone can get the place order button to work.

Lastly, just a little favour to ask, please PM me your email address before signing up and I will send an email invitation to you. Every email invitation with successful sign up will give me 100 reward points. Thank you.

        • Increase1 on 02/12/2012 - 17:30

    Great deal - thanks!

    Just FYI, the 'place order' button for an order not requiring payment worked for me using Firefox but not Chrome.

  • hsk on 02/12/2012 - 11:07

    looking for battries, where do you find them, have searched nothing is coming up, must be missing something?

  • powergirl on 02/12/2012 - 11:56

    The problem of the place order button happened when using ipad (safari). Tried on Hubby's account just now, works fine with IE on the computer.

  • cheaparse on 02/12/2012 - 17:32

    The cheap items are going fast…batteries all gone too.

  • downhillmtbr on 02/12/2012 - 18:15

    Anyone else receiving a minimum checkout of $9.99?

    Edit: There's an update Minimum check-out amount is temporarily $9.99 due to abuse of rewards system

    • mangew on 02/12/2012 - 18:21

      Yes same here…must of been ozbargained

  • Moderatorscotty on 02/12/2012 - 18:30

    OzBargained.

    Just got an email from them:

    I am not sure how you placed this offer on your site. We won't we honoring some the 100's of your unscrupulous who are abusing our offer.

    While this deal is still valid, you no longer be able to claim your rewards point against low value items.

    • Increase1 on 02/12/2012 - 18:52

      How do they expect to do that when we didn't go against any terms or conditions?

      I hope they know what the applicable law is…

      Wow, WTF? What kind of business says that. Also I find it hard to believe they are going to come up with a legitimate excuse to not honour these purchases.

      It just makes them look stupid as hell. They made it so all new accounts by DEFAULT have a $5 coupon, and they just happen to sell $6 products. As if they wouldn't foresee this happening.

  • Future Kids on 06/12/2012 - 10:00

    Anyone received their order yet?

    • matt_will_fix_it on 06/12/2012 - 10:04

      My order still says "Processing" on their website

      I can see the money has been taken from my credit card.

      I also note their website says "Guaranteed delivery before Christmas if you order before December 16th"

      Lets see if they live up to their guarantee.

  • carolina88 on 09/12/2012 - 20:35

    hmm money taken out but no messages yet on whether it's been sent, just says processing

  • DHunter on 13/12/2012 - 16:51

    Still "processing', I might consider open dispute soon. Maybe this is what they want trying to not honour our purchase. Let's see if we can write some review for them!

  • miss arrow on 14/12/2012 - 18:06

    Mine got sent (and received an email confirmation) after I followed it up with them. I had ordered about $20 worth of stuff :)

    They told me that my order had been "accidentally missed" after the system was "abused".

  • ongrudy on 15/12/2012 - 16:32

    Mine is still "pending"…
    How reliable is their system in processing orders?

    • matt_will_fix_it on 16/12/2012 - 11:48

      Given that they think their system was abused, I doubt they are looking to honour any of the orders. Its pretty poor customer service, given that they have our money.

      If they aren't going to honor the purchases, they should have initiated a full refund and sent an email communication out.

  • mangew on 21/12/2012 - 10:17

    Received an email today as follows:

    "Dear Customer,

    Recently you placed an order at kidstuff.com.au. As we were unable to fulfil your order, we will be offering you a full refund via your method of payment.

    Merry Christmas & Kind regards"

    • matt_will_fix_it on 22/12/2012 - 13:12

      Did you get your refund? Mine hasn't come in yet.

      • mangew on 22/12/2012 - 14:41

        No, still says pending

        • ongrudy on 25/12/2012 - 23:28

          Looks like our money is stolen

  • Future Kids on 03/01/2013 - 11:40

    Are we being robbed? Anyone get their refund (or their order) yet? What do I have to do?

    • ongrudy on 07/01/2013 - 23:47

      If you paid by paypal, open dispute and escalate if no response.

  • matt_will_fix_it on 03/01/2013 - 12:18

    I got my refund. Just email them [email protected]
