I made 3 separate orders Weds night. 3 main items that I wanted plus some filler Nescafe refill packs and Coffeemate as I was trying to get each order close to RM333 in order to get the max RM100 discount of the YES30 code. Anyway one of the items shipped Thurs afternoon. I got an email with the Poslaju tracking code and it seems valid. All Nestle items are currently showing as Verified and the others as Processing.

Update: Just realised that I can't find the courier tracking code on their website. It is, however, in the email that I received.
Update2: Received an email this morning (Fri) at 9:40am for another item which shipped. This one via GDEX. I was gonna check the tracking number but before I could that the item has already arrived at 11:30am. This is a piece of furniture from merchant Panmex.
The first item now showing as "Out for delivery" (Poslaju)
Update3: First item just arrived via Poslaju at 12pm. This is a DLink product. It shows as merchant DLink on Gemfive's website. Actual merchant is Aone Plus.

Some updates for this morning.

Received an email at 9:40am for another item which shipped. This one via GDEX. I was gonna check the tracking number but before I could do so, the item has already arrived at 11:30am. This is a piece of furniture from merchant Panmex.

The first item now showing as "Delivery Process" (Poslaju). Since this is Poslaju, I fully expect to find a note sneaked into my mailbox sometime today that states that I was not at home. :-)

OK, so maybe Poslaju isn't all that bad. The first item just arrived via Poslaju at 12pm. This is a DLink product. It shows as merchant DLink on Gemfive's website. Actual merchant is Aone Plus.

jacky91 How did your order go? Did you get it already? If you don't mind me asking, which merchant you had problems with?

As for me, apart from 1 more item, the rest of the stuff arrived today. The last holdout is some software. Up to now, Day 5 (counting only work days), still no news, status is still "Processing". This item is stated as 4-8 days delivery.

btw, got some freebies too. I bought some stuff from Nestle in 3 separate orders (total 6 items) and they came in 3 separate Poslaju packages. In each package was a free 5-stick pack of Nescafe Caramel Latte 3-1. So if buying Nestle products, order them all separately (after taking into account the postage, of course). :-)

Coincidentally that's the same merchant I bought from. AOnePlus right?

For the 2 items I bought, one's a router which was delivered very fast on Day 2 and software which just came this morning, Day 6.

I count the day I ordered as Day 0 which was last Weds night.

I also sent an email inquiry to Gemfive on Tues, Day 4. They replied today saying it was already shipped. By then the item already arrived.

Perhaps because they got stock smile.gif so everything went smoothly.

Mine was out of stock and GEMFIVE totally got no information on the item's status.

A1+'s fault was they did not update GEMFIVE promptly and left me hanging there for 8 days.

GEMFIVE's fault was that they keep giving me the same excuse saying that they couldn't contact the merchant, where I was able to contact the merchant for few times.

Will consider few more times before buying from them again.

I guess I was just fortunate. Communication is always a problem. Hope you have better luck next time.

I asked a similar question on Gemfive's FB.

BTW, what's the difference between status "Verified" and "Processing"?
GEMFIVE Malaysia: verified means order passed payment. processing means merchant is preparing order.

Next status after that should be Shipped then Delivered if all went well.

When Shipped, you should receive an email with the courier tracking number. The tracking number is only in the email. You can't, or at least I couldn't find it, on their website. Weird.

Refunds tend to take a while. Much easier to give your money then get it back. :-) The only time when I had to ask for a refund was with TGV. Earlier this year, I asked for a refund on Jul 24 and finally got the money back on Aug 11. Just a bit over 2 weeks.

What is the reason?

I was buying a few tickets but the website was so slow that the process hang halfway, no tickets were issued but I was charged. I was using Paypal. Then I immediately made another booking via the iPhone app which went thru fine.

Straight away emailed TGV saying that I wanted a refund for the 1st transaction. Went to see the movie with the tickets from the 2nd transaction. The next day they wrote back saying my booking was successful and the tickets were already used. Hai. Had to write back to ask them to properly read my first email again which had details of both transaction and stated quite clearly that I wanted a refund for the 1st transaction which failed.

I see a lot of bad feedback but it's been ok for me so far. I've first ordered from Gemfive back in Dec 2015. I posted about them here. 4 orders in that month from various merchants. The ones I remember are TeeSang (Nestle stuff) and AonePlus (PC stuff).

Last Sat ordered some Milo from Nestle (Rurutiki), it shipped 14th from Johor and arrived today, 15th. Courier was TaQBin.

My 1st experience with Gemfive.

Its already a bad experience.

Bought something that shown "in stock" in Gemfive app.
I found merchant contact the next day & message them roughly how long will the shipping take.

Guess what, merchant said "no stock", i was so dissapointed & asked why didnt they update as no stock so i could buy from someone or someplace else.

Merchant said, Gemfive system was hard to handle as Gemfive are the ones did not update their app & system...not the merchant themselves.

After checking for any cancellation options, i saw no buttons for cancellation except u have to email them.
And also in the cancellation T & C, u can read they will charge u rm10 or 2% of ur deals for cancellation process....ohhhh my ass...

End up i told merchant i will wait for restock & email gemfive customer service on gemfive lousy system.

I doubt they will get into it anyway.
