i want to share my experience in Ebay 2 days ago.i was browsing around in ebay and i saw this tile:
APPLE IPOD TOUCH£ £40 IPHONE BLACKBERRY £80
i always don't believe this kind of thing, because how come this is so cheap?
but the interesting thing is many people are bidding this item. (i try to provide the link but this seller is not selling this item anymore.)
The seller describe the item like this:
AMAZING OFFER NOT TO MISSED !
If you are looking for very cheap electrical and other products the come no further
This auction is for a website which sells all Ipods,ipod touch, Blackberries, Mobile Phones (unlocked),LCD TVs and many more goods including clothing and car parts that are all added hourly
Recent Prices Include
Apple Ipod Touch £40
Iphone £80
Blackberry Storm £130

Great save to be had, no referrals or signing up fee, once auction won and payments recieved you will then receive an e-mail to the website where you have the freedom to buy as much as you like, its very simple and a truly increadible buy.
this is just an auction for a website, the starting price is 0.99p. i try to check the feedback of the seller and what surprise me is all of the feedbacks are POSITIVE! and some winner actually use 140 pounds to bid this website, the others are like 39 pounds, 15 pounds etc....
just can't believe it and this really make me feel very curious! i found the seller list a lot of this website for auction and they actually have a buy it now price which is 2.99 pounds. so i decide to buy it and the seller response me very quickly to send me the link of the website.
dhgate.com is a China wholesale website serving global buyers. Also a leader in B2B online trading and PayPal's largest client in the Asia-Pacific region! their buyers are from the US, Europe, Australia and Asia–totalling to over 230 countries worldwide.
actually they sell a lot of things like mobile. painting, clothes, make-up, jewelry, cameras, games etc..... the interesting point for me is their protect buyer policy, because sometimes when you buy things online and your item haven't arrive or the seller refuse to give you the refund for the problem item. what they do is the buyer pay seller ONLY when they are satisfied with the item. this picture show how it works.
i quite like this idea and i think this will give much more confidence for the buyer which is very important in online selling market.
but the thing which most surprise is not the website, is the product they sell !!!
you can see they look soooo real with the box ! and the "16gb" is "written" on the back of the phone.
this one is more professional as a "high quality" copy iphone it actually operate in Apple OS X system which means it works like a real apple iphone. it has everything same as the real one but only no wifi.
but who can tell this is a fake iphone? just can't believe it! lol

Having done some successful transactions online, I feel that it is rather convenient to surf for and purchase goods in this way and there should be a secured service provided that the payment system is intact. Also, I do agree most of the wholesale websites have clear indications and icons to guide customers on the way through to last step of payment. However, I found it surprising that some sellers provide fake products which have now makes me to be aware of seller’s integrity. As you may see and compare the price of the same item from various online websites there can be a range of prices. So, customers should be alert and look carefully at the conditions. Also, the down side of online shopping is that there is no 100% guarantee in the whole process in terms of the quality and delivery of the product. Shoppers just need to be careful and should ask for a refund by all means.
ReplyDeleteThat is an interesting story. I am also surprised that sellers online are allowed to promote fake products with the real brand name. Is that not illegal? Providing people people with brand descriptions and fake products is certainly nothing that I would rate with a positive feedback on ebay... As the previous comment says, such stories make us aware to stay cautious when buying online.
ReplyDeletei also think this is illegal and feel surprise that people still giving the positive feedback after they realize the products are fake!
ReplyDeletebeside the product, I'm more interesting in the way the website work the transaction between buyer, seller and the website itself. that is a good way to prevent buyer or seller for any cheating but also the website itself need to be very trustworthy.
