Before you believe a bad review about us

We would like to respond openly to every negative review about us. Many are posted anonymously, so we cannot reach those customers directly. This open letter is our reply, and we would be grateful if you took a moment to read it.

But here is what a one-star review will never tell you:

  • We import from 70+ official distributors. That is why you pay far less than local retail — and why delivery takes longer. We publish the date before you pay, never after.
  • You can pay only when your goods land in Johannesburg. Pay on Arrival, no full payment up front. Ask yourself what scammer offers that.
  • Nobody has ever lost money with us. You get the product, or you get a refund. There is no third option, and there never has been.
  • We are part of the ITwork group — ten years trading in Europe, nine stores, thousands of positive reviews.
  • Johannesburg and Cape Town stores open this year — real shelves, real stock, walk in and buy the same day.

We are not satisfied with our review scores, and we are not going to fix them by hiding anything. We are fixing them by being faster, clearer and easier to reach than any reason to complain.

Read the full letter — photos and video of real shipments, and a straight answer to every accusation.

Problem with an order right now? Write to [email protected], [email protected] or [email protected] — answered the same business day. The letter also lists our group and store owners' contacts.

The Brother QL-800 is a direct thermal label printer designed for busy offices that need fast, reliable label production. It supports Brother DK rolls, including black/red DK-2251 and economy paper labels, and prints high-resolution text and graphics up to 300 x 600 dpi. With a maximum print width of around 60.96 mm and high-speed printing (up to 148 mm/sec, approximately 93 standard address labels per minute at 300 dpi), it is suitable for address labels, file folders, postage, name badges and packaging labels. The unit uses drop-in DK supplies and requires no ink or toner; an integrated auto cutter enables single or multiple label printing and banner output up to about 3 ft.

Advantages

The Brother QL-800 combines high-resolution direct thermal printing with fast throughput and convenient drop-in DK rolls, eliminating the need for ink or toner. It supports special black/red DK-2251 tape for two-colour labels and economical paper rolls for common mailing and identification tasks. The auto cutter reduces waste by cutting exactly the number of labels needed, and the printer integrates with Windows and Mac via P-touch Editor plus a "Plug & Label" mode for simple printing without installing software.

Key specifications

How to use

Install a Brother DK roll by opening the printer cover and dropping in the roll until it seats; no ink or toner installation is required. For basic printing on a Windows PC, use the "Plug & Label" feature to print common labels without installing software. For full design control, install P-touch Editor on Windows or Mac, or print directly from Microsoft Word, Excel or Outlook with the provided drivers. Select the DK tape type and desired label size in software, send the print job, and the printer will cut labels automatically when finished.

Recommendations

Use genuine Brother DK supplies for best results and to ensure correct label sizing and peel performance. For two-colour labels, use DK-2251 black/red tape; for cost-effective mail and packaging labels, choose the appropriate paper DK roll. Place the printer on a stable surface, avoid direct sunlight on labels before printing, and keep the print head free of adhesive buildup by following the manufacturer’s cleaning instructions.
Key Highlights
  • Choose from pre-sized labels or Brother’s continuous roll option which allows you to print labels to the size you need up to 1 metre in length
  • Each roll is supplied on a spool that simply slots into the correct position in the printer every time, eliminating text alignment and paper jamming issues.
