Do not order anything from Pet supplies online . It seems Pay Pal does not have a problem doing business with criminals. I ordered flea and tick collars from an appearant US based company only to find out I can't reach them and they took my money. They are from China posing as a US company and Pay Pal won't help me, way to go Pay Pal.

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

1. No return address on the returns policy............thats because 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 nearly always 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. No company address information.
4. Great looking items at bargain prices that turn out to be tat.


HOWEVER you may still have the option to do a charge back if you funded your paypal payment via a credit card.
