They are running a scam on FB, promising a random box of electronics, etc for a relatively low price. Several people in the comments section commented that they had done this with other businesses and it was kind of fun. I felt like I could spare 35.00 at the time and decided to chance it. 

When  I didn't get any shipping information on the day they were supposed to send it out, I came here. The response to my complaint was pretty clearly pre-fab and written by someone who speaks very little English. (Said they'd send me the tracking information after delivery...).  

The company claimed to ship from the US.  

Since then, they've removed all the comments (including the complaints by the people who never got anything). The email address here is not the one listed on the site (or on the FB page).  

As you can see--the complaints are piling up.

Another of these???


Chinese Web Sites or on Social Media ads easy to spot (once you know the below signs) so buyer beware.

1. No return address on the returns policy. The site will look as if its in your country (where they despatch goods from) but they will ask for returns to go back to China (returns depot) at a shipping cost often more than the item is worth.
2. No contact telephone number. if you click on contact the most you will get is webmail or an email address.
3. Rarely company address information.
4. Great pictures of items at bargain prices that turn out to be tat.
5. Fake reviews.
6. Google and you can often see previous company names as they change them once enough claims roll in and Paypal stop them using their services and start over.
7. Send fake tracking numbers to win item non receipt of item claims.
