“Product shipped with label attached directly to the box of the product I ordered. As the box was a unique part of the product the, it was completely ruined as it had to be displayed/resold with the shipping label on it or a giant rip in the design.”

“Terrible service. In more than one month, I've emailed them three times, I've left messages on their Facebook and I've also DM'd them there, and no response still. They keep adding preorders of D&D that they can't fulfill and now refusing to give refunds. Absolutely do not recommend.”

“WARNING NOT PREORDER AND PAY FOR ITEMS FROM THIS RETAILER I have experienced a TOTAL LACK OF COMMUNICATION AND CUSTOMER SERVICE when trying to clarify if and when my order will arrive. My order was placed and paid for in good faith 3 months ago. I accepted that there might be around 2 months wait for the game I have ordered but Zatu customer services have subsequently not responded to my queries about it. I have checked Zatu reviews and realise that other customers have experienced similar/worse treatment from them and in some cases have waited years for preordered goods, without explanation or reimbursement. I wish I had checked the reviews before placing my order and would definitely have avoided using Zatu if I had.”

“I'd avoid after my recent experience. I paid for a game 3months ago and still not dispatched. They then increased the price and threatened to cancel it if I didnt pay up. When I pointed out they cannot change the price after I have paid for it they altered their T&Cs the same day to cover themselves. Shady practices”

“From other reviews, seems like it’s fine for purchases from within Britain, but I don’t recommend it for international purchases. The shipping cost at checkout was pricey but doable… I figured it was worth it to buy from someone other than Amazon for a change. But when the package eventually came, I was told I had to pay an additional $10, because at shipping time they chose to pass the cost on to the receiver rather than paying it. At an additional $10 shipping, I wouldn’t have ordered from them at all (it feels petty but at this point I’ve paid twice the price of the game for shipping)… and it came a month later than the initial estimate. Overall a pretty frustrating experience.”

“Comes with masses of non-recyclable expanded polystyrene packaging even though none of the contents were breakable. My child doesn’t seem hugely interested in the games Sleeping Queens and Quirkle.”

“Appalling! Avoid! I ordered and paid for a game. Zatu say they have sent it to Royal Mail. Roal Mail claim they have not received it and it hasn't arrived. Instead I have had two requests to review my "purchase" I have contacted Zatu twice who promise action and do nothing. So here is my review: choose another supplier!”

“Didn't receive the package. Royal mail sent it pretty quickly and it arrived to Croatia but when are domestic Postal Service became involved this is where the problems started to arise. First I received an SMS that package is going to be delivered last Friday and after the package didn't came, I tried to call the driver but couldn't get an answer. Didn't receive note so I called the postal office and they said it was "preppared" and is going to be delivered day after. Package was not delivered. 3 days later I called again, they said package was misplaced and is gonna be delivered today but wasn't. No note nor response from the postal office.”

“Very poor dispatch time transparency which misleads customers. If you need it delivered quickly, I would advise ordering elsewhere. While Zatu may say items are dispatched in 48 hours, this is not the case for me. I ordered slay the spire the board game and it took more than a week to be dispatched which was very dissappointing and frustrating given it was stated to be IN STOCK (and was at all times shown as IN STOCK from when I ordered to when it was delivered to me). I would have ordered elsewhere if I had needed to wait this long. It is unacceptable to mislead customers on stock availability and dispatch times. When I noted this to customer support, no goodwill was provided, financial or otherwise, for this deception. All that was noted was a shifting of blame that it is at another warehouse so it isn't with them to dispatch yet?! Zatu is responsible for the sale and stocking of items, if it isn't in stock, then don't lie and truthfully indicate it's not in stock. You can play semantics, and say that "oh it's in stock but in one of our remote warehouses", but to the customer in stock means you have it and you can dispatch it per your 48 hour promise. Price also not competitive vs buying this other shops, except they'll DELIVER (not dispatch) in 48 hours (or less). Overall a dissappointing order experience, order elsewhere if you need something dispatched on time.”
