Hi Hamza,

They have the PayPal logo on their site and based on the reply you got from them they do not accept payments made through PayPal - this is clearly an example of false advertisement which in fact is a BAD sign. I would suggest you stay away from this one.

Other reasons why you should stay away from this supplier are:

* They are based in China, so the likelihood of their products being fakes is quite high. No matter how reasonable their price may seem.

* Their site was created just last March of this year so making them just a few months old. It's more ideal if you deal with sites that have been online for at least 2 years.

* They are currently using free web based email accounts for their contact email rather than the more professional domain based email addresses.

Hope this helps.

Damn, I just spent 5 minutes writing all that and you beat me to it Richelle :(

All of those points that Richelle highlighted are rolled gold reasons NOT to deal with this site. The one that got me straight off the bat was seeing the PayPal accepted sign at the bottom of the page.

After reading what they said to you in regards to not accepting PayPal, I would suspect this site to be an outright scam site. I strongly doubt you would even get fakes for your money, they would just take it and run!
