Default Tradetange scam?

Hi there,

I did purchase an item from Tradetang as it seemed to good to miss, however I wish that I had missed on it.

I didn't find the service easy to use, and also the item that I purchased never worked.

It is all mainly copied electronics etc, although is sometimes listed as the real item.

I would be very dubious of dealing with them again lets put it that way.

Regards

Raiserbackp

Default I bought from them too

Same for me,

I also did purchase an item from Tradetang which seems to put in cotnact direct electronic factory from China to us with a control service.

Service is not easy to use because in severals steps anc could be especially time consuming in case of reclamamtion as for me. The item has been shipped and received very quickly, but jsut to find out that what was shown as an original is just a cheap copy in fact (looks 98% alike, but has onky 35% of the function). As always, how come a 450$ product is sold there for 110$ including shipping? the answer : a copy!! Most of the products sellers indicate that they sell a copy (you can ask them, they will reply) but no mine. At least my dual chip phone works.

I am still waiting to resolve the conflict. Keep you posted.

Regards

Raiserbackp

Default Still in problem

My item is a bad copy, tradetang ask me to return the item with a tracking number (but more then 50$ when I bought the item 113$). Tradetang communication are summarized by:
sorry for your inconvenience, please return the item with a tracking number. They do not answer any question you ask. They just reply like a robot.

this site is only good if you are looking for a cheap copy of something... at your own peril because if in trouble, you will deal with a chinese robot somewhere in the world.

Exclamation At your own peril...nobody will support you!!

Tradetang just communicate with you to tell you what to do (to ship back the item at your own cost with a tracking number, which cost between 75 and 125$!!!)..they never answer any of your question....they provide a return adress without a postal code!!!..and the shipping adress is different from the one where the item has been shipped from!!!

Paypal doest not take any liability in this..they say they only cover for difference in description items bought with ebay..for the rest no!!! and ask me to refer to my credit card company to ask to be reimboursed (but guess what..the credit card tells me that I have to deal with paypall since they took the money from the credit card....)..

I got screwed....do you really want to be the next one?

Thumbs down Tradetang.com scam

I got scamed too. I ordered a Gibson L-5 Guitar for $397.00 as shown on the sellers pic.
I contacted the seller who responded quickly before the purchase and gave me a serial number. The seller is Guitar888. I have recently check out the site and have now found seller Sunyanli888 has the same pic. Seller xigang also has the same pic. The seller no longer responds nor does custer service "[email protected] does not work. Phone number 86-10-85863798 does not work also. I am not sure where to return the item
the address is not clear. I have 5 days to return and no communication from Tradetang or seller.
