    Thanks

    Don't go near it. There's no phone number or address, and the email address isn't even under the same name as the site, no social media presence linked to the site, no reference to the Nike trademark. Not to mention the domain name is ridiculous, it's aimed at Irish customers but they were unable to attain a .ie domain? If they don't have that, then it's likely they don't have any presence in Ireland at all. Most likely it's counterfeits coming from China.

    Too many packages in their warehouse so orders shipped after 7th of Feb?
    Its because of the Chinese New Year delays.

    Any url having IE or ireland in it is more than likely gonna be a chinese site.

    +1, when queries like this come up 90% of the time I can tell its almost certain to be fake from the site name alone.

    And the other 10% you can verify from registration location and the site layout/information.

    I reckon you are a scamster, but will not delete it for now -just to show people the tactics some of these companies might use.

    I might make a sticky thread about how to spot bogus sites. A good idea is to check the contact email, in this case
    customerservice@safeonlinesales.com

    I see this email is not just related to selling fake goods, but also banking scams

    http://www.complaintsboard.com/complaints/blackfriday5ubeatsbydrecom-fraudulent-fake-company-c693189.html
    There's an email address " customerservice@safeonlinesales.com" but above the email address was a thank you for shopping with us in French. Why would an American company thank their customers in French?!
    I later found out from both of my banks that there were some fraudulent attempts to my cards. One of them got through and I had to go to the bank to dispute the charges. Thankfully, I caught it the day of transaction. The bank was very quick to fix the fraudulent transaction.
    This is just a warning to you guys out there who are trying to find great deals for the holidays. Be careful, and check with your credit card company to see if the company is legit or you can see if they have contact information and if it's verifiable.

    Nike make very few of their shoes in China now. So I seriously doubt they are real. Most Nike's are made in Vietnam and I can't remember the last Chinese made nikes I have seen.

    A real pair of Nike's should last for years. If you want a third pair I can't imagine they are lasting to long for you. Op there is the risk of Irish customs seizing them

    No i am not part of some fake nike site scam..The nikes i bought were not for me but a family member..i have had fakes seized by customs when using other sites but as i said ive received 2 pairs of authentic nikes from nikeiegears.com & correction they are made & sent from vietnam.
    Thats all i have to say coz it's the truth & you can make of it what you want.
    Just trying 2 clear up some misled preconceptions you guys appear to have.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,386 ✭✭✭✭rubadub


    sent from vietnam.
    That would be odd, seeing as the site is registered in China
    http://whois.net/whois/nikeiegears.com


    From another forum, I only checked a few and all were using the same contact email address
    Chinese scam websites
    I'm going to help you to discover more scam websites that belogns to the same scammer.

    www.asicsauskayano.com - asics scam website
    www.couponsenjoy.com - disccount scam website
    www.shoemyway.us
    www.jerseysusausa.com - NFL jerseys scam website
    www.woolsnowbootsmall.com
    www.shoesnewnew.com

    If you search this websites in whois.net you will discover that the user that register this websites is similar.

    I'm sure what I say because I fell into the trap a few weeks ago.

    If you insist on buying goods from China, stick with the bigger sites like Gearbest, Aliexpress, DHgate etc. Everything you could possibly want it on those sites.

    If you can't find any info on the site via google and have to resort to asking on this forum, that's not a good sign.
