Hi Rashed,


Link hidden: Login to view has been created just recently, June of this year 2010. They prefer Western Union for payment. We only accept sites that have been online for more than 2 years, as we feel new sites pose too greater risk to our members. We also feel the Western Union payment method doesn't give any protection at all to consumers. At this point I cannot declare this store as a scam, but I do not recommend dealing with them.

Link hidden: Login to view is a member supplier of our SaleHoo directory. It has been on business since July, 2003. They accept secure methods of payment such as credit cards and PayPal. Let me know if you need help getting in touch with them.

All the best! :)

Hi Rashed,

I would just like to add - www.xmhongrui.com is a Chinese company selling brand name electronics. One of the many unwritten rules for online selling/buying is that you can never buy any brand name products from China and expect them to be authentic.

I checked the site there is way for you to contact them except through their feedback form - no email address or phone number. All you have is a physical address which I could not find on Google Earth. Ideally a company should provide you all three - a domain based email address, phone number and a valid physical address.

Hope this helps :)

Hi Irene

Thanks for the quick response, I tried to contact Plemix by downloading their application form but it wouldn't download any chance that you'll help me contacting them?

Thanks

Rashed

You're welcome Rashed :)

In case Irene, misses this one - I'll be glad to help you reach plemix.com

I have already sent them an email and an online chat request. I'll try calling them too. Is there anything in particular you would like to ask them? Let me know your concerns so I can ask them for you.

Hi Rashed,

I haven't heard from them so far. I did call them but nobody answered - so I left a message and hopefully they'll get back to me soon!

I'll give it another try later... talk to you soon!
