Hi Friends
Sharing my experience-Buying from China on line
I would like to share with you my experiences, I have bought some merchandise from this China website: wholesale-dress.net, they have plenty of beautiful statement in their web including the return and exchange policy.
To my surprise, I received more than 20% defective items in my order, when I email them, they replied and ask me to clean and repair my merchandise myself and refuse to accept responsibility, and keep on emphasize on the cost of return.
They also failed to check the availability of stocks and ask me to make full payment instead, so I end up paying more and have unnecessary credit balance with them. All this are to their advantage.
The trouble is that some of the items are beyond repair; they did not check their merchandise before delivery and simply ship out defective items.
I was told by my friends that most of the on line purchase do have similar problem, so beware!!.
Please share my experience with your friends so they don't have to be caught in my position.
Good day!
Steven

@Geminis S.

Glad to share my bad experience, so that this kind of website don't get away by cheating people, please help to pass the words around.

Note: My total purchase from them is around US500 plus, 20% defective goods will be US100..and they said they will compensate US2-3 dollars for my next purchase, mad right?

log on to taobao.com, it's Mandarin version, register as a member, there after you can browse through and select your item, payment can be done using credit card ot paypal.

There are also agents's English website that helps you to buy from taobao, but they charge for a service fees.
