What do you think about the aobomart website? - Shanae - 04-17-2014 11:16 PM
Has anyone ever ordered from aobomart? Mainly bridesmaid and flowergirl dresses? Tell me about your experience with them. Should I buy from them? Tell me if the tailoring service is accurate when and if it is done.

That Chinese site is approaching 3 years old, so it may not be the worst fly-by-night operation, still it may be a typical knock-off site showing pictures stolen from the designer's web site but delivering something inferior.
A comparison shopping trick that may expose the originator of a design, use Google image search by example to find the same image on other sites, I right clicked the upper let brownish dress to copy image location, then clicked the tiny camera icon in Google Image tab to find more instances. That identical picture is on more than 15 other sites you can check out.
It has a 68% automated trust rating here:
