Has anyone heard anything about a company called TCITCI based in China. I have recently received an email from them. They look quite cheap.

Hi Richard,

Delete the email you received, they will bring you nothing but bad news.

Why do I say this?

For one, they are a Chinese supplier offering branded electronic products - one of the top things you should always remember when shopping online is that branded products and Chinese suppliers never go together. 9 out of 10 times these suppliers are indeed selling fakes/copies/replicas/imitations.

Second, false advertising. When you visit their site you'll find the PayPal logo along with three international credit card logos (on the right lower panel), giving you a false sense of safety but when you make a test purchase, you see that PayPal/credit cards are not an acceptable form of payment. They only accept Western Union and Bank Transfers - two BIG no-nos.

I think these should be enough to convince you to look elsewhere.

By the way, what products are you interested in? We'd be glad to help you search for more suitable suppliers.

Cheers!

P.S. Do add your photo to your profile, we need more friendly faces on the forum :)

Thanks for your quick response. Not sure what products yet. was thinking of blu ray and dvds in all honesty but need to think of another as your site keeps saying hard to find with little mark up.

Your welcome, Richard!

Yes most electronic products are pretty hard to make a profit on because the market for these products is highly competitive.

I recalled this thread on the forum about selling DVD players and I think you may want to have a read, if you haven't already:
