ORDERPLUS INTERNATIONAL LIMITED is a bait and switch company. I do not believe that they are a retail business at all. They set up a dummy website with a product that they do NOT carry (like a phone case for underwater use). They have you order the product at a great price. They then send you product that is worth less than $5 and pay only a couple of dollars in china freight. They know that you didn't get what you want. Half of the buyers give up then (They keep $35- $7 = $28 profit). The second half of the ripped off buyers place a dispute with Paypal. The seller offers a refund of $21 and half accept (They keep $35 -$7 -$21 = $7 profit. The second half or 1/4 will reject the settlement and Paypal will ask the buyer to rebox the merchandise, address the package for return, ship it and record the tracking number for approximately $25. Most will give up and not send back the item because of the high shipping cost. A few will go down the road and pay the $25 shipping and send it back. After 30 days, the seller will inform Paypal that the return was never received. The tracking number will not prove it was received and the buyer/shipper will now have to apply for an insurance claim and Paypal will close the case as successfully resolve. The bait and switch seller will now keep the $28 profit for their fraud. Enough complaints and they will start over and call themselves a new name and set up a new Paypal sellers account with a new product.

So am I to understand PayPal knows this is the game of these scam thugs and continues to allow them on the platform to scam customers?

Hey, so I fell for this and lost my money to these thugs. It was my fault for trusting the integrity of PayPay and the merchants on the platform, but never again. I will check them out going forward provided I couldn't find the item with a company I trust. I will also use a credit card and if this crap happens again I know the card company will do a reverse of payment.

Perhaps but not much they can do about it. PayPal can close the accounts, but they'll come right back and open a new account, new site. All you can do is be vigilant. Hate to say it but PayPal still gets their cut no matter the outcome of transactions. On the other hand, there are users who get away with avoiding PayPal fees by using friends and family for goods and services transactions so...it evens out in the end. People scam each other in general. We do not live in a perfect world.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

Yep, it seems that I've been stung the same. I paid out $14USD for the return of the item only because of the sense of satisfaction of the seller getting 0$. Now 2 weeks after confirmed delivery by the courier and PayPal has asked for the shipment number again, obviously because this scumbag seller is denying receipt. I should've realised that PayPal would take the easiest and cheapest option to "resolve" it.
Even FaceBook have relented and removed advertising for Orderplus, but I guess they're not out of pocket because of it.
A big "**bleep** YOU!" 🖕 to PayPal for continuing to support and be complicit in your customers being defrauded.
