“Excellent service as usual!”

This is the third time I purchased from tictacarea.com. All the Casios I bought from them have the lowest price even compared to eBay. Shipping is free but takes a little while to arrive from Spain (about 2 weeks to Canada, then 5-7 days within Canada after released by customs). I got away from duties the first time only, but this has nothing to do with the seller. Overall excellent and reliable service!

“AVOID - been waiting on a refund for 5 months”

Ordered a watch back in December, arrived in January but then decided to return the watch as didn't like it. Had to pay £13 handling fee for transfer to the Netherlands. Its now end of March and this company claims that they have not received the returns item even though I have evidence to claim that the item had arrived at an intended returns address. Avoid dealing with this company at all costs.

I've purchased a £55 cost watch, but because the description didn't give all details (like the watch's radius) the watch was to small on twist. The delivery time had longer than 10 days, and when I've tried, and I've contacted with the customer service, I've run out of the 14 DAYS, what's the refund policy. Luckily someone is helped to me, and he has agreed to the refund, so I've sent it back, BUT some MF is refused my parcel, so I've lost my watch, and the post cost as well.
Thank you TicTac area!
FU!

One of the worst experience as they are not professional at all. My watch stopped working and they are bargains to replace and it takes them till now 1 month of communication and because I left 1 star review about them they said we will not replace the watch unless you remove the one star review.
Don't deal or buy from them as they are really not professional

Stock item on website (Skagen watch band). Placed order, card charged, then told it's a special order. 3 weeks later, still not shipped, and no communication from them. I canceled order and got a full refund. I appreciate that they did that, and didn't continue to waste my time saying that the order would be shipped (eventually.) Simply should have stated on the product page that this was backordered or a special order - would not have have a dissatisfied customer.

Extremely disappointed as I did not receive my watch. Made a payment in April.

Only receive automated response when sending emails.

Truly sad as I thought this was a trusted sight

Really happy with the service I got. Asked a couple of questions via email before ordering and got a quick and efficient reply. No import duties or additional taxes to pay either so that was good. It's a fantastic watch packed full of useful features. Highly recommended.

This is the first time I ordered something that started outside the US. Tictacarea made the process so easy. It arrived on time with no issues at all. The support Dept. answered all my questions which really helped out. I'd recommend them to anyone. Thanks guys!

My wife ordered a watch for me as a Christmas present in November and it reached California on January but IT WAS THE WRONG COLOR. Contacted their refunda department for an exchange and the CEO himself (supposedly) replied offering to exchange for the right watch or get a surprise discount... We asked for the exchange. Got a reply a week after offer the discount or a exchange again, I kindly asked for the exchange again and got ghosted after that. No more replies, I contacted them on Instagram and they blocked me, I wrote with a different email and they ignored that one too. This company is a F*CKING JOKE. I would not risk my money ordering from this irresponsible and childish people. You have been warned.

Tip for consumers:
You will be ignored by the CEO himself if you try to apply for an exchange or a refund.

DO NOT order a Lladro from this company. THEY ARE ONE BIG SCAM. There prices are lower than others for a reason. They have poor packaging which in my case the product arrived broken. They have done nothing to answer my call or reply to my email to fix the problem over a period of 3 months. As a matter of fact, I have tried calling during their business hours and NO ONE answers and you can't leave a message. The CEO Juan Carlos makes promises but does nothing to follow through. STAY FAR AWAY! THEY WOULD GET NO STARS FROM ME, BUT THE SYSTEM DOES NOT ALLOW.

Tip for consumers:
Do not purchase from them unless you live in Madrid and can physically return it yourself.

Tras recibir un reloj precioso de una marca que tiene relojes de caucho (también mascarillas y foulares) muy originales y con un estilo "graffiti". Éste tenía la imprimación 'animal print' en mal estado y el color se habia borrado como de un desgaste nada lógico con el poco tiempo de uso (2 meses máximo y no usándolo continuamente)
Al avisarles, ell@s han contactado co la marca y en menos de 48h tenía uno nuevo en casa. Todo un acierto, gracias.

Beautiful container, well packed.
Thanks very much!

They will give you the run around and never ship your item (like in my case) or ship a broken or completely different thing. Stay far away.
Update: Tictacarea claims this is a fake review. But the site has confirmed my order. Otherwise, this would be removed once Tictacarea tried to lie and flag the review. Instead of trying to lie to potential customers, own your faults and mistakes and change for the better..

Tip for consumers:
If you value your money then shop elsewhere.

I bought a Casio Edifice EQB 1000 from TicTacArea with free shipping. Shipping did not take too long to Canada (8 days) and there was no additional charge. The watch is brand new with tags and original box. Thank you!

I ordered a watch from tictacarea, but the watch did not match the description of the product in their website. When I requested to return the product I was told that I received the watch I ordered but the description was incorrect. I guess I should have known that the watch was not going to match the description on the website. The 2 pictures I am adding will show the original description of the watch and the new one that the company added after my request to return the watch. Not a reputable company. Compare the features in both descriptions.

Bought a Fossil necklace which lasted exactly a week. So I got in touch with them asking for a solution and got one reply asking for photos, which i did sent immediately... and then nothing, even after several reminders from my side.
This is poor (or better no) customer service at all. This company only seems to be interested in the quick buck.

every thing is fun and games until you want to claim a warranty.....

Been waiting since I placed my order in October 2020, one parcel sent never arrived in Canada despite claims that it had, second replacement shipment never got further than a label having been made. I have sent close to a dozen emails trying to get something done with TicTacArea and they have been completely uncooperative. It is now nearing the end of April and all of my requests for a full refund have been ignored completely. Avoid these scammers unless you want to be without your money and have nothing to show for it.

Tip for consumers:
Avoid the hell out of TicTacArea. Complete scammers, there’s a reason they don’t accept PayPal!

UPDATE: The support was able to resolve the issue and everything seems to be fine now. There was a technical issue with the bank transfer.
-------
I ordered a watch payed for it then it cancelled the order automatically. According to customer service i should try again / transaction will be automatically reversed. Tried again with another bank account, same issue. Money is gone.

I ordered in this store for the first time. I was a little worried, since it was not known how the delivery to Ukraine would go. But everything went great. Convenient service, the ability to track the order and goods in transit. The package arrived in 25 days, without any problems. I ordered a Seiko watch. The quality of the goods and packaging is impeccable. I was especially pleased with the gift wrapping

I give zero. I ordered watches Christmas gift for my little kid on Nov 2020. I didn't get it yet and they do not responding to my emails. They provide me tracking number which shows only label created they even didn't ship my items. I will call my credit company to get refund due to not responding. I really had worst experience whit them.
I wrote several emails I tired no responded. I really disappointed.

My story starts like this: i bought a watch from them 1 and half month ago. I said first time is a problem with shipping during the covid situation, and i try contact them for some more details but nothing happens. No answers at emails, no answers on the phones, nothing. I have much better experience with private sellers from another sites like Ebay, AliExpress etc.If you look at site description you will say is a very good place to buy but at the end is just a scam. Please stay away for your safety
