I would just like to add my $.02 to this thread(s)....first, when you see ANY website offering $2000 Gucci handbags for only $100.00 or iPods for only $35.00, that should tell you right there that it's a scam. THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL THE DISCOUNT IS THAT HEAVY!!! Second, the reason DHGate doesn't shut down the "scammers and thiefs" is simply because they are making a rediculous amount of money with them. For every 1 or 2 out of 10 people who actually go all the way with the arguing and disputing with DHGate and really do get a refund, there's still the other 8 or 9 out of 10 who DO NOT get a refund....do the math....it's simple. Plus, DHGate is "protected" from any real prosecution simply because they can claim they had no idea that one of their "suppliers" was selling counterfeit merchandise....they're "insulated" from all the bullshit because they simply have to claim they didn't know fake items were being sold and can say that they "no longer do business" with that particular website, and I'm pretty sure in their "fine print" somewhere it says they are not responsible for the actual merchandise and that they are "simply a go-between" or some kind of lie like that.....my point is this-if it sounds too good to be true then guess what....IT IS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!!! Use common sense and research the company(s) thoroughly before spending ANY money on anything....I'm just glad I had the opportunity to research these drop-shippers before spending any money. USE YOUR HEAD PEOPLE.
