    Anyone that’s on Facebook do you get the sponsored ads for wish pop up on your timeline.

    Has anyone ever bought anything from it?

    And the female models are outrageously fit.

    Yeah wish is decent for certain things I suppose.

    Bought loads from there, or the missus has and she never has any bother with them tbh

    Most of the stuff on fb ads is really perverted.

    Reminds me of my youth looking at the underwear section of the Kay’s catalogue.

    There's a sister Co called geek (I think it's geek) she gets all my caps and small gadets from there, cheap as **** but adds up in shipping cos they charge shipping per order

    So like a bag of 1000 caps is 1.00 + 4quid shipping so its a bit sneaky

    I actually mentioned about the site the other day on our board. Been seeing it everywhere of late and even top stars like Neymar have been promoting it via ads.

    Went on the site and I swear it's a counterfeit lover's dream! Stone Island jumpers for £20, Balmain hoodies for £15, Nike trainers going for less than a tenner <laugh>.

    Been thinking of buying something and giving it to my cousin, the lad's a proper fashion junkie and I wanna see if he can spot if it's a fake. If he can't, I could pull in some serious favours if he thinks I'm getting him £100s worth of gear :emoticon-0103-cool:

    Thought he was a hippy surfer? He probably knows even less than I do about fashion!

    He is but he loves his fake clobber.

    He's the Cornish hippy version of Tel.

    I took a chance on a cheap fishing reel from there once. Turned out to be a quality bit of kit that I would have had to pay at least treble for over here. Took a feckin' long time to arrive though.

    There's a similar one, JOOM, where everything is postage free.

    I thought Piskie would be a nonleather wearing hippy type - tofu sandals and vegan clothes

    @PISKIE to confirm

    Using the same browser or search engine will do it too. The amount of 'hacking' that goes on is scary. Data is now worth more than gold.

    Watch 'The Great Hack' on Netflix for more info.

    In the meantime, enjoy being a pervert <cheers>

    If you're on fb then they obviously know you're a ****.
