Why Bobshop?
- We decided to partner with Bobshop as it is South Africa’s top online marketplace, putting buyers and sellers together in a very safe and secure online shopping environment.
- It offers you the convenience of support by phone or email, which we otherwise wouldn’t be able to provide at this stage.
- Bobshop offers many safe payment options (EFT, Credit Card, bobBucks, Zapper, Mobicred, Masterpass and even Discovery Miles amongst others) for your convenience and peace of mind.
- We are able to offer you, through Bobshop, a much-reduced nationwide shipping price of only R30, for up to 10kg (South Africa only)!
- As we are a verified seller, we are part of the Buyer Protection Program, which means if anything goes wrong with your order, you are covered up to the value of R2000.
Please note: you must register first on Bobshop before you can purchase.
