After reading these comments, particularly about the one who looked their 3 business locations, I would not shop here. It sounds like they are fencing off stolen goods, considering one of their locations has 1 employee.

You cannot order anything from this site. Every time I go to order something it says 'fatal failure' and 'your current IP address is wrong.'
They are just trying to get you to buy their "competitors' items at the bottom plus they never answer their phones or email.

I'll have to admit I was scammed by this site just like everyone else. That fatal failure message is ridiculous. It's true they don't get back to you. So after trying to reach them for almost a month I had contacted paypal and they credited my account back again. It's real $#*!ty when people screw you over, over a small amount of money. People are such scumbags.

I read all the reviews i could, no one said it is even a good website to bother looking at, i went ahead and tried to order a 32 gb 4th generation ipod touch, and it went to a screen saying fatal failure? What is that, and having your lines busy whenever i call. Bull. Don't trust zwee.com.

I to fell victim of the low price scam they advertise on their site for the iPod touch.

Stay away from this site and if it looks too good to be true it is! Myself I don't see how these kinds of sites can get away with this and not be investigated.

I tried to order on line and also got the fatal lying error because of your IP and location we can't ship to you. I also called their number several times and got a recording we are too busy with a high volume of calls and can't take your call at this time, another one of their propaganda.

Do yourself a favor and don't waste your time visiting this scam site.

I have tried to order a product through zwee.com for two weeks now. All I get on the order page is the famous "fatal failure".
I emailed them, no response. It appears that this site just routes u to ebay to seel their junk, not a real ordering website.
Don't bother even looking at stuff here, u will not be able to order it. I think that they think that people will want the item bad enough that they will go ahead and get the junk on ebay! Stay Away!

I think that anyone that is posting rave or even slightly positive reviews about this site, is a scam themselves. I have attempted over the past six months to purchase something, and I get the 'fatal failure' error message when I attempt to finalize the purchase. I have sent them emails and I have left voice messages... nada...

So if you say you have gotten something from them... I find that highly suspect.

I've been trying to order 2 of the IPod touch they are advertising for sale for 98. Of course when I try to pay I get an error that my IP address is not accepted as they don't deliver internationally. To Missouri? Go figure. If they are in FL, TX & CA but think that MO is international, I probably don't want what they're selling anyway... Definitely BOGUS

Zwee is a piece of CRAP! I tried too order the ipod touch 4g 32gb there for 97 dollars and every time i tried too send the order it said that my ip wasn't correct? So what i think they are doing is getting your email and selling it so NEVER use that website. Or else you will be wasting your time

I found zwee.com only about two months ago and during this short period I have become their regular customer. They have the lowest prices for almost every product anywhere. First time I have purchased a Garmin GPS system from them, it arrived in a bit more than a week. My second purchase was a Nikon digital camera and it arrived well within two weeks. Next time I bought a mobile phone and it arrived in four days. So shipping times may vary, but everything works and the shipping is free so no complaints here.

The only thing I would like to see on the site is more detailed product specifications, but overall I am very happy and will continue to do business with them.

Website itself is ok, but it portrays itself as a retailer with great prices on electronics. Although when you attempt to make a purchase, you get the 'Fatal failure' message. It seems there are many people who have stated the same error message through out the past year. So I don't think it's a new glitch. I've emailed the company and I'm awaiting a response.

Fatal failure
December 21, 2010

Fatal failure.
Apparently, no one can buy from them, so they can't be charged with fraud, just time wasting!

It occurred to me that perhaps, when you try to buy, perhaps some worm or virus could be introduced to our computers. I'm going to do an immediate virus check.

The website is terrible--due to the no shipping information part--the only thing they say is dated March and April--and the fact that they want your card number BEFORE they give a total. I don't trust this type if business.

The company does not make a good impression because they don't take phone calls and they don't answer email--questions about shipping.

Sometimes a good price is overtaken by outrageous shipping charges

Hey all
November 30, 2010

Hey all. Zwee is NOT a real business... at least not the way you think they are. I considered buying a PS3 from them for Christmas this year but the price seemed too good to be true. Besides finding an abundant number of terrible reviews online, I checked their location address. If you insert Zwee's address into Google maps and look at it via street view... "Zwee" is actually someone's home in Florida. This is most likely a person who has made a business out of accepting shoppers' money and then shopping for them online through sites like Ebay and other online companies. Just be aware that this is what you're actually getting if you shop with them, a hired online shopper- not a direct transaction with an online store.

My mother has been trying for a couple days now emailing, trying to check out and calling this website to order the Unlocked Apple 3G iPhone. No response yet. And fatal failure each time we checkout... We have the correct amount in her back, and it is saying it is being held. Were assuming it might be trying to process our order. HOPEFULLY. This better not be a scam. Because this is pathetic... All that money was my allowance. Better get a response... I am sick of waiting. I just want my freaking Iphone already!

Without question the "Fatal Failure" joke is just that. No returned emails, No returned phonecalls. I'm glad I didn't get through and am moving on. Bye Crooks!

Just like many others, I too was interested in the iPhone 3gs they had advertised for $200 dollars. According to the Better Business Bureau this company has three locations, Florida, Texas, and California. The one in Florida got a score of an F, the one in Texas an A+, and the one in California has no score. Also, the Texas location shows that is has only one employee. Obviously, something sneaky is going on with this website whatever it is that they are doing, an my best advise is for everyone to stay away from this website. Oh and btw, to reinforce everything I have just mentioned, Upon visiting the site McAfee notified me that a script had been blocked. That script apparently was a Trojan. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR, DONT BUY FROM HERE.

I was just wondering if anyone knows how to shop at zwee.com
Whenever I click the 'Make Purchase' button, it gets redirected to paypal.com in the URL, but on the page it says, 'Fatal Failure'. Has anyone encountered this problem before? Am I doing something wrong?

I've been trying to place an order with Zwee for several days. When I click the purchase button, I get the treaded "fatal failure" message. I've tried clearing the cache and changing ever other configuration I could think of. I've applied every recommendation offered by PayPal tech support and the suggestions I could find on the internet. I have called Zwee several times and have only been able to leave messages. Nobody has called me back. I have also sent them several emails using both their web site email page and sending an email to *******@zwee.com. All have gone unanswered. Can anybody help? Is there something I'm missing? Feel free to contact me at *******@aol.com. These people have a number if items that I would love to purchase... if only I could!
