The Good, The Dabs, and The Ugly

Dabs.ie just lost a sale. I wanted to buy this, but the process of actually purchasing the thing drove me almost batty, so i stopped. Sucks to be you Dabs.

Three things they did wrong:

  • They made me create an account just to buy something. No, no, no, no, no...

  • They made me create an account just to buy something, even though they offer the option to purchase via PayPal. No, no, no, no, no...

  • They would only let me deliver to the billing address of the credit card used for purchase - this is for "security reasons" and is "in my interest". Really? Gee, thanks...


Epic fail Dabs. I wanted to give you my money, but you made the process so frustrating that I would rather go and trawl the Web looking for alternative sellers. That's a special talent, good on ya.

If anyone from Dabs actually ends up reading this (Hello!) I suggest having a read of this.
