Review for phone bought for eGlobal
The phone itself is good, but when I check the IMEI, it shows that this is not a new phone. It has been used for 2 months before I got it. And in the box, there's only a phone, charger and an earphone, no batteries and dock. Bad service

Check 'in stock' and shipping charges with them before buying!
Shipping was super fast but their website can be misleading. Free shipping does not apply if you live outside a major city. The shipping amount is not shown in the shopping cart and is taken out of your account without notice! Also items listing as 'in stock' often are not. It has happened to me more than once shopping with them. Check stock availability before you purchase and save yourself the hassle... or shop with sellers whose ethos website is less deceptive.

Do not buy from this website!!!
I bought a Sony Xperia Z3 Compact from eGlobal a year ago. The delivery was fast and I saved approx. $150 compared to buying the phone in Australia. I got about 3 months of use out of it before it started to just turn itself off randomly. I used the RMA system and organised to send the phone back. Unfortunately I didn’t realise how expensive this would be. Australia Post wouldn’t touch it because of the battery and I had to use a courier which cost $100. I had the phone looked at by an authorised Sony repairer prior to sending it to see if it would be cheaper to fix here. They said the motherboard was faulty and it would cost more than the phone was worth to fix. For this reason I sent it back to eGlobal and let them know what was wrong. Weeks go by with emails and it becomes clear they don’t understand English very well as you go in circles trying to explain something and then you get a response that doesn’t even make sense. Eventually they tell me it was the battery and not the motherboard and send it back to me.
It worked so I didn’t question it further. I got another 3 months out of it before the EXACT same fault happened again. I told them and they didn’t care at all or admit at all that they didn’t adequately fix the problem. Of course they are happy for you to send it back because they don’t have to pay the huge postage. After sending it back a second time and again going in circles with their terrible English they tell me it is working fine and there is no problem at all with the phone. I wasn’t going to pay them any more money for return postage considering the phone is a piece of junk and will probably break down again so I ended up abandoning it and now I’ve spent about the same amount I would have if I bought the phone in Australia except I have no phone to show for it. So in summary:
1.They sell ‘grey imports’ which are an inferior product and hence why they are not covered by an Australia warranty. 2.It will cost you a fortune and a lot of time to send an item back to Hong Kong if something goes wrong. 3.You will get terrible service by the repair team. They will not adequately fix your product, just enough to be able to send it back to you. They will keep doing this until your 12 month warranty runs out and they no longer have to do anything. 4.Despite saving hundreds to start with you will potentially lose all this and more.
Just spend the extra couple of hundred dollars and buy authentic Australian stock with an Australian warranty.
At the very least there are many online companies that sell grey imports for similar prices but they have Australian based repair centres. Use these websites if you need to go cheap. Whatever you do avoid eGlobal like the plague, they are just not worth it.

Good price and service but slow shipping
Good price and service but slow shipping. the shipment took more than 2 weeks though it states much shorter time on the website. You need to work on you shipping time.

Fast shipping claims were false, but the phone was a legitimate xiaomi redmi note 2 and not a fake. So yeah, acceptable eshop and stuff, apparently cameras are legit too idk I don't need cameras I aint rich.

Canon EOS 60D Camera and IS Lens
I purchased the 3.0 inch Wide LCD Screen Protector (product code: CSCPGEN00009) and the Canon EOS 60D Kit with EF-S 18-135mm IS Lens (product code: CKITCAN00023).
Although I did not realise my products where coming from Hong Kong, they came within the promised time span of 10 business days. I am very happy with the camera- it works well and how I believe it should, it even came with the Canon 60D strap (which was not advertised on the site) The lens, however, is different from others I have seen in stores. The zoom and focus functions work fine, but neither is very tight and are easy to wind open when hanging around my neck. My camera battery charger came with an adapter, as the original plug was for Asia (Hong Kong). I would have liked to have been notified of this before my purchase. The eGlobal site has an online 'instant' service that claims to answer any questions you may wish to ask. I found that this service was lacking quite considerably. It was handy to have someone answer my questions, but the service is definitely not instant. Some questions took operators up to 20min to answer, without any indication of wait time. I shopped with eGlobal for the price. I am satisfied with my product (the camera namely), but would choose to shop elsewhere if provided with better service and price.
