I agree that DHgate is about 90% scammers. But on the other hand, i have to say ive been using dhgate for one item for about a year, its an item that i sell on craighslist with good results. its not a branded item, but is better quailty than alot of the same items i see in local malls.
Sending large sums of money overseas is just plain foolish, just as is ordering large quanties of an item youve never seen!
If you are going to deal with DHgate, always order one peice first, just as a sample. if the seller will not sell you one peice, runnnnnnnnnnn.
