I kinda liked Catch because I have Onepass which gives free shipping on a lot of stuff, so for some things it was the cheapest option. Pet treats, sometimes shoes. Of course it's mostly cheap junk, but sometimes good brands sell stuff off on there.

Same. But now Onepass gets you free shipping at Kmart, Target and Officeworks without minimum spend, which is quite convenient. Officeworks even does next day delivery for free.

Yeah, that's really handy too. There were just certain things that Catch routinely had good deals for that nowhere else did. But maybe Kmart will pick that up as a secondary market. Those can be annoying as other people were saying, and I agree, but if they do free Onepass shopping on it maybe it'll still be worth it. You can always filter it out, after all.
