"I was going back and forth on whether I should get a new grey market Canon 6D or take my chances on a used one since I plan on also purchasing an "L" lens. Through Greentoe I was able to get a new USA body for the price of a grey market! Registered with Canon and already put in my pre-claim for my rebate"
"I was skeptical and therefore performed some research on the company. The research yielded positive information, so I completed my purchase…and waited. Within two days they found a seller and within a week or so my TV arrived. Wow man, I’ll definitely search their site before making big purchases. Oh, and their price was more than $100 less than every other site. I checked a lot of sites and they all had the item “on sale.”"
"first time shopper. just ordered a dresser. fingers crossed "
"Unbeatable prices and my order was fulfilled quickly and shipped right away. Could not have had a better experience!"
"I was pretty hesitant about ordering through this site, but my sauna arrived within about a week and half and works perfectly! Highly recommend. "
"Yes this was worth the savings "
"Greentoe saved me over $1000 over 3 purchases. They are legit and a great service. Before I decided to write this, I read some reviews and that review about asking to confirm some information was asked of me too. I was able to email with their support team and the reason is there is fraud at a new level in the electronics world and their partners are weary of fraud. So, if someone is not shady, they should be ok with 1 extra step. Greentoe has been around for 10 years. I bought from them in 2015 for the first time and they have always been great to me!"
"I was so happy when I received an email with a retailers match for the futon I wanted. The price was literally unbeatable and it shipped faster than what I anticipated. "
"Beware giving them your data. They will send you an email stating that they need your work email to verify who you are. This is a copy of the email that they send and have been using since at least 2019.
"The retail partner that accepted your offer sent us an alert. They are having trouble clearing your order through their order verification department. Unfortunately we don't know the steps involved here or the reasons they are having trouble. Many times the issue is a similar name creating a verification challenge. We have seen people try to spoof the identity of others.
Can you please provide us with some additional information about yourself that they can use to verify the order? Usually a work email address tends to clear this up very quickly. We have sent them things like this in the past and that has helped get people through the process very quickly.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience. Fraud is a big problem in our industry and retailers aren't willing to take chances with expensive items like this. I hope you understand. We will keep all information confidential and it is only used for anti-fraud verification purposes."
Breaking it down, the end retailer does not charge your credit card. Greentoe does. The retailer is given a PO# on behalf of yourself by Greentoe so why would the retailer have any issues verifying anything? They don't and it is Greentoe that has the issue as they even state in their FAQ that they do not give the retailer you credit card info. A company that wants to tie your regular email address to your work email address and sends an email saying "it isn't us, it is the retailer" when it is not, should raise a lot of red flags. This is a blatant data grab for when they do sell your information.
When you point out all the flaws in what they were trying to do, they will send you links saying everyone does it because of fraud. Yet, if you look at the links, they are for shipping to an address other than the verified credit card address or a recently changed address. I will point out again, Greentoe is the one that charges your credit card and can verify the credit card information.
For some people, they may not care about giving away their data. If you are at all concerned about that, then stay away from Greentoe."

"Purchased an epic JBL 9.1 True Wireless sound bar for about $200 less than the best online price so my husband and I very pleased with our Discount Bandit experience!
