    Looking at this site i would be really tempted to buy off it. What do you guys think does it look secure from a payment point ? and would be interested in the quality?

    Why would anyone bother buying such rubbish. Maybe in 1982 when Ireland was backward and any logo was seen as amazing but these days duds like these can be spotted at 50 paces.

    We send package out as a gift.Normally,you need not to pay the tax. = Triads/Organised Crime/Mafia etc.

    Sure, it's cheap, but its almost certainly guaranteed to be fake; illegal; generally crappy quality and most likely produced by child/slave labour.

    Im not a bleeding heart ( honestly! ) but the promotion of this crap needs to be stamped out.

    Chinese site selling designer goods, no physical address given, contact email is a throwaway (shop2003@hotmail.com)... I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole.

    Anybody ever use this site?
    Have used it for a few things in the past and was very happy with the products.

    If you used it previously, why are you asking what it is like!!! Not linked to the website by any chance????

    I didnt ask what it was like, i asked if anyone had ever used it before. Take off that detective hat :rolleyes:

    Ive used it in the past, my ex has aswell. We both received our goods and they were of good quality, yes they were fake but certainly better than anything ive seen in bricks and mortar stores around here.

    Sure does... It's a Chinese website. Redirects to www.wholesale-area2.com.

    Whois info for wholesale-area2.
    Whois info for wholesale-area.

    Very poor rep on WOT also.

    In fact, it looks like the redirect site was to get rid of their bad ratings.
