I managed to click through and buy but I didn’t notice must add another free gift , I also didn’t see the option in the rush. But I purchase it at $299.
Now I don’t know will get the 1 for 1 or not. Trying to talk to seller but they open at 9am. If not happening then will try to cancel. Hopefully won’t be from happiness to sadness. Lol

I got home from work around 11+ showered and then waited. So managed to get at 12. But now can’t confirm as it seems I need to add free gift, I checked with poco customer service if I will get it but they said cannot confirm and ask me to check in 3-4 days. Don’t know if I should cancel now and buy it at $249 instead. Or just wait and see when it arrives as 1 or 2 set. If 1 set I should be able to return via Shopee as change of mind? Anyone return before?

this 1 is actually shopee 1 for 1 event.......
but by right the seller will indicate under their variation to avoid packer pack wrong.

Yup I thought I was the only one having this issue. Didn't see any add on deal that appeared in cart at midnight, but I just checkout and proceed with the purchase. Checked with seller - gave same reply to wait 3 to 4days.

I'll just wait for the package then and hope for the best.

To those that managed to score the Buy 1 Get 1, I'm looking to buy 1 set. If anyone wants to sell please PM me to discuss. Thanks 🙏.

u just see the box size and weight..... if too light, just reject the parcel.

1 phone is roughly 200g, 2 phones 400g.

I too managed to grab 1+1 promo but then realise same stunt like before with Poco X3 with the cooler fan as freebie whereby the requirement to select the add on option.

Sent a query to CS, only to tell me firmly that order with no add on option means no 1+1.

Needless to say, Order cancelled.

Oh so confirm won't have? Coz the CS tells me can only check 3 days later. Then I should get ready to return I guess

I literally asked twice & was assured on this
No add on = no free gifts

That's bad cause it was priced at 598 for 1 + 1. Which is double the price. If they don't drop the price to 299, then who would want to price it at double the price for 1 set and then you pick add-on to get the 2nd set. This type of practice should be investigated.

Gimmick. Surprise Poco official website does this type of Gimmick... It's cheating. Think the law is not on their side. I think I've read before long time ago, that sellers cannot sell above the list price.

So they are actually selling 1 set above their own set price if they are selling at 598. Even if the buyer click the add-on, it's not promotion "BUY ONE GET ONE FREE" as claimed. It's buying 2 at 598

Probably the last thing anyone expect is return request kena rejected as description clearly shows buy 1 free 1

Then ended up paying $299 for a single set

For this I rather not risk judging on my past experience
