Ratings and reviews

Exhausting to navigate and constantly logs you out - which is annoying but would be less worse if at least the sign-in-process would work decently... Have to be honest and say that I personally prefer tutti in every way. Edit: Had to mark it down even more. They blocked my account, want me to go unpack the new & still packaged products and document and take pictures, additionally with my personal data, and want me to give them that in order to unblock my account. Guess don't take my money, bye.

Quite a dysfunctional and clunky app. The new login process seems bizarre also, keeps asking to confirm the account login on a device I am not logged-in to. For the fees they charge you would think the app would offer a much smoother user experience ... burn money on your AI features if you like, but get the basic user experience smooth. Very expensive fees for a local/Swiss marketplace ... there are other channels that seem considerably less expensive.

I've been a member for 10 years. Everything is getting worse... The commissions are absurd. it's higher than any other platform I know. It is pure monopoly. The money protect thing is a scam, at least the way it is implemented. Now the app... it is getting worse. Search function is broken - example search "aqua terra" and it will return every Omega for sale! Very useful! And the scrolling is horrible - it updates mid scroll and shifts your position in the page.
