They advertised a carton damaged refrigerator online. After I made my purchase they contacted me to inform me it had a lot of damage, which they then sent photos. When viewing the photos I noticed it was not even the correct model which they advertised. I have been now chasing them for a refund and I'm still trying to get a refund. Today I will be lodging a complaint with Fair Trading.
Stay away. They are running a scam. They sent me a faulty vacuum followed by another faulty vacuum. Once I returned the second one they stopped responding to my messages and haven’t refunded my money.
Very Bad Experience – Do Not. I repeat do not buy anything from this company. I bought a LG TV online and after I paid. I was informed that the TV was not available. I was then informed that they could provide me with an updated Model. I said yes. I was then informed that I had to pay an extra $175 Freight over and above the freight cost I was charged online. When the… Read more
TV eventually arrived, The box had a difference model number to the TV Inside. The box was damaged and the foam inside had a lot of damage as well and parts were missing. When I unboxed the TV I found the the screen was Cracked and would not even turn on. The TV was sent Back to P&S Electronics. I asked for a refund of my money. I chased them for 2 weeks, I sent them lots of emails asking where is my refund and got no reply. I eventually got through on a phone call and was told the request for refund would be sent to accounts. The request was supposedly sent 2 weeks earlier. By this time I had had enough. I said that if the refund was not in my bank account in 2 days that I would refer them to NSW Fair Trading and initiate Legal action against them. Low and behold a refund was in my bank account next day less $170 of what I paid. I dont know why the full amount was not paid but I am to tired to chase it up with them and go through the draining process again. I have never dealt with such unprofessionalism in dealing with a business. Please give them a wide berth.

I will never buy anything from them again – I will never buy anything from them again. I paid $3800 for a TV meant to only have carton damage and it had a dead pixel on it. The thing was a demo. They claimed it had warranty on it when I purchased it, but now refused to honour it. She offered me $150 and when I refused it as I said I wanted it fixed or exchanged she got all rude and refused… Read more
the warranty.
I should have read reviews before hand.
I will be taking further action.
I will not deal with them. I wish I was warned.
Edit - They have sent me a threatening message saying they will sue me for defamation if I dont delete this negative review. I will not remove this because this is what actually happened and its the truth.
To add more to it, they accidentally sent me an extra tv. Out of good will, I returned it to them. The delivery man came and took one of the 2 TVs delivered to me. He must of took the wrong one.
They claim in the message sent to me, 'One or a few dead pixels from laptops to tvs are acceptable in the electronics industry standard'. This is inonsistent with Australian Consumer Law. Under NSW Fair Trading, I have the right to the goods to be repaired, replace or refunded. I am yet to be offered any of these.
Futher action will be taken on my behalf to get what I am entitled to.
I will not be bullied by any one to delete my comment as this is the truth.
I will attach the message they sent to me.
This is based on my experience.
I will update this review once this issue is resolved.
An update - I have put a complaint forward to NSW Fair Trading and they have contacted them. Today… Read more

Best customer service ever – Went to the store in Castletown Townsville for an issue with the audio on my phone. Received the best customer service ever and the issue was completely resolved. Thank you! Show details
Excellent service! – Ordered online at a great price. Was a bit nervous if we had made the right choice but the person at the Rockdale shop where we collected the TV has so attentive and genuinely wanted us to be satisfied we had got exactly what we ordered. The TV is great. Show details
Good service and product – I found that stores in PR and I was kinda curious about it. I came to the shop in Rockdale and had a talk with these salesman there last week. I realized that a lot of people came to the shop without any questions or research about 2nd factory product before buying stuffs in here. I met Daniel and Leo there and they guided me a lot about the 2nd… Read more
factory products and their services. Before I came home, I grabbed a OLED 65" TV there with a visible scratch when I turn it off. Not a bad deal.
Tips for buyer: Lets have a chat and discuss with salesman before buying, do some research about 2nd factory products. Cheers and all the best.
Negative reviews
Worst company I’ve ever purchased from – Would give them no stars if I could. Please don’t buy anything from this company. It’s been an absolute nightmare dealing with them. Their customer service is probably the worst I’ve ever encountered. They will very rarely answer their phones. If by chance you’re fortunate to get through, after following all the prompts it gets diverted to a… Read more
voicemail and they never ever call you back. The same goes with emailing them. I purchased an oven from their online store which was supposedly brand new but in a damaged carton which they were supposed to repack. Well, they sure did repack it, into half a refrigerator box with no padding whatsoever to protect it. No fragile stickers on the box. It was even packed upside down. Surprise surprise it arrived with the glass door of the oven completely shattered. Trying to return it also was horrendous as they probably use the cheapest freight company in Australia. They took over a week from the scheduled date to collect it. When I enquired about the non collection they told me it had already been picked up. But that’s another story for another review. Fortunately I paid through PayPal and was able to get my money back.
Buyer beware – Purchased a wine fridge on their online store. Checkout was fine said will deliver to my home address far North Coast NSW. PayPal sent me a receipt immediately. P&S electronics nothing this was on the 23rd November 2023. I contacted the Rochdale store on the 27th November 2023. I was given another number to call no answer then after many calls… Read more
someone answered who said they will pass the information on and I will receive a response before close of business that day. Nothing, contacted them again this time we have your order you are out of the Sydney delivery area (checkout stated $70 Sydney metro NSW flat fee $78,90) they cancelled my order. Upon my experience false advertisement. Good luck if you live outside what they say is their delivery area. Completely wasted my time. Did get my refund.
Avoid this business – Sold product online and cancelled the ordered (due to no stock). Offered alternative product at higher cost, which was accepted. Then increased the quote saying it was a mistake. Why list items, take the money, then go through all this trouble. There was no attempt to resolve issues. Complete time wasters. Ordered multiple items from appliancesonline.com.au instead. No issues and great service.

Will Never Shop Here Again!! – I bought a "carton damaged" fridge online and after two weeks had passed and I'd heard nothing, I contacted them and was told they didn't have it in stock and they have ordered one in for me, I waited another week still no communication so I called again and was told it would be delivered Saturday. I got a call on Saturday and that it now wasn't… Read more
coming - it wasn't on the truck. Instead I was sent images of a different fridge with damage to the front as an option. After three weeks and no fridge I told them to cancel the order and refund my money, 6 days later I received my refund, again I had to call them to chase it up - A month gone stuffing around with them. I ordered one from The Good Guys I had it the next day.
Poor Show – Buyer Beware - Terrible service, 5 days to clear my PayPal payment that came straight out of my bank. None of this information on their website. I need a fridge now not next week. Rang them and got no service now it takes 5 days to get my money back. POOR SHOW

Very bad sales man – If you like to make your day worse visit there... otherwise stay 100 metre away from them, had a very bad experience, with me i don't have issue with the product i buy but the sales man was very rude, i never go to that rockdale store again... Show details
buyer BEWARE!!! – I drove 2 hours to pick up dishwasher which they didnt have at factory. Sold me another one which was cheaper but didnt tell me that. Absolute scammers stay away Show details
Scammers don’t go near them – Bought a tv and was told it was carton damage, when delivered found it was repaired and had been used with scratches. Demanded my money back within 24hours and they wouldn’t pay scammers should be shut down Show details
Hopeless – I purchased two PVR's from them. They never arrived. I checked on the website and it says that my order is on hold. I contact them and they say that I cancelled the order. I didn't. The product I purchased was never available and they just forgot to give me back my >$325.
Sold second hand soundbar as new – I just paid 1000 dollars cash for a "new" soundbar after seeing it on Gumtree. It retails for 1500 so it sounded like a good deal. I am an AV engineer for a living. The box was damaged and had been taped back up as it was previously opened. Every single speaker, of which there are 4 including the soundbar, has scratches from obvious use. The metal… Read more
grill on the soundbar was dinged and even had white paint on it. I had a missing cable, second hand scratched up remote, just awful shonky second hand being sold as new. This is obviously against the law and from other reviews, they seem to be getting away with it. Well, I am taking it back tomorrow for a cash refund. If I have any issues I will be immediately going to the authorities. This is fraudulent and actually a criminal offence. Let's hope it doesn't come to that, but if it does I'll pm all you guys who had the same problem. Let's get them shut down.
So the 3 days passed, no refund was given, was told they would get back to me shortly about it and… Read more
Perfect!!! Excellent service and satisfied – Really happy with the service. Excellent dealing when you buy more items. I got really detailed information about the items . And was happy with the delivery service.
Terrible Service and products – I purchased a brand new fridge, a TV and a washing machine 15 months ago. All of them are giving us trouble. Fridge suddenly stopped working today and washing machine does not work properly. Don't buy anything from P and S. They are crap
Refurbished not new items!!!! – Omg dont touch them!!!!! Paid $2300 for a NEW fridge As advertised and freight to my state. I needed that particular size fridge. I paid to have it freighted to my state. It arrived mouldy, food debris, broken, dents, blamed everyone else but, the courier had ongoing photos to prove that's how it was received from them and without a doubt… Read more
secondhand!
Would not assist me in any form.
They were belligerent, rude, aggressive, and disgusting to deal with!
I took them to court, (VCAT) and won!
It cost me money and time but it was worth it! Even their solictor was abusive along with the belligerent [name removed] after the hearing and order.
Abusive texts and calls, I blocked them.
They sent an email to me by mistake abusing someone for not cleaning the fridge out properly. The guy that picked the fridge said all their goods are refurbished and they sell as new items when they are not!!!!
He also stated a lot of foreigners were doing this making a lot of money quick.
ACCC law should deregister their business!
Returning customer – I have always received great service from these guys. Purchased a couple of tvs for my business. Since then have purchased a deep freezer and a gas oven for my new job. I've always been greeted and treated like a loyal customer and have found the prices to be better than the bigger outlets.

Was asked to leave the store - Rude and Aggressive!! – P & S Electronics Auburn Dont go in and ask them if they would have items in stock something they have them on their website 'available' but not displayed, you will be asked to leave. Worst customer service, very rude, not only was he loud and rude but the spectators had to hold the owner of the shop back, was about to attack, very very very aggressive!! Need to be trained about customer service.
Sold as new delivered factory seconds – Attended the kogarah store enquiring about a 75 inch tv. My exact words to the sales person, "Is this tv brand new in the box unopened" sales person replied, Yes its brand new. Purchased the tv which arrived a couple of days later with no strapping on the box. Once opened the legs were scratched, with no supporting strips on the tv screen.… Read more
Returned the tv sales person stated "Oh there must have been some confusion this is factory seconds". He stated he will not issue a full refund as the tv was shipped stating "My shipping guy will loose out". Had an argument and was informed i will be issued a refund in 3 business days. I questioned as to why I would not be credited on the credit card stating, "This machine does not allow it". Three days later no refund attended store sales person attempted to sell the same tv 5% cheaper. Was informed I will be issued a refund in another three days. Had to print documentation from ACCC informing the sales person I was to be issued a full refund including feight. A total of 7 business days I was issued a full refund. Do not deal with this business unless you want factory damaged goods.
Excellent! – I bought a samsung TV from the store and the customer handling was great from peter who works over the store. Great! Having such ideas when you are in delema on what to buy. Keep it up
Perfect and flawless product – Gentle in the counter from P and S electronics Rockdale was very helpful. Helped us to choose a TV which is great.
Very nice service and offer by piter P&S rockdale – peter thanks for your awesome service and offers for the washing machine thanks mate P&s rockdale is best for the money value and recommend every one to visit for the purchase
Heed the review warnings. Wishing I did. Keep way – ALL goods are seconds. Asked if washing machine was new or second and response was new. After we paid for it the machine was pulled of display position exposing multitude of dents and scratches. All other 8kg washers were the same so we upgraded to a 9kg which was wrapped. Thinking finally I got a new machine we took it home. I SHOULD have… Read more
unwrapped it in store. Upon unwrapping at home we found that the polystyrene had covered a huge dent and scratches. Since this section was up against wall and wouldn't be seen I just decided it wasn't worth the trouble. First use of washing machine and it flooded my laundry and kitchen through a faulty outlet and hose. I rang ahead and advised of fault and that I would be coming in for refund. Wouldn't give me a refund because he insinuated that I had made dent and scratches. He focused soley on that stopping short of calling me a liar but all language used pointed to this. He paid no attention to the damaged outlet causing leak. I even had video to show the water pouring out. Eventually I became so emotionally distraught as it wasn't becoming resolved and he was doubting everything I said that I accepted the original 8kg with damage and hopefully machine won't leak. Personally I suggest going to another store but if you do go, unwrap and take photos of everything before leaving the store and get signed agreement from store. I am so upset by [name removed] questioning my integrity I can't emphasise enough my regret for stepping into the store and not heeding review warning.
Horrible Service – I will keep the trend of the reviews. Just lost $450 and 10 hours of my life from this store. Bought a vacuum from Rockdale. Had issues with it. Had to take it to Landvale. The problem wasnt present when I left it with them so they refuse to dissect the problem or look into it. Called twice ahead of time to confirm hours and was lied to on both… Read more
ocassions Tried going to pick the vacuum up twice and the store was closed both times after being told that they were open. Needless to say I live a 3 hour round trip away from this store and have to rent a car as I do not own one. Have a newborn baby at home that I had to take time from. End result was I still dont have the vacuum just ended up telling them to keep the thing and bought one from JB HiFi as I spent more on car rentals than I did on the initial vacuum and still dont even have it. They refused to refund me or deliver to me or even own up to lying to me and instead just tried to turn the blame on me. Terrible customer service and could not care less about their customers or products in general.
Never shop here – Never buy anything from P and S electronices PTY LTD Bought a washing machine from Rockdale store had trouble from day one saleman [name removed] is a liar saying machine is one of the best on the market can't get a refund, bad place to shop. Never go never any of the stores should have gone to one of the big retailers never again.
