One reviewer said it best, "Everything is ok until you have a problem". Read the 86 reviews from customers on resellerratings. com ( free to visit - they rate online businesses). Many people were happy with their order. Others did not get the $5 discount they were promised if they spent more than $25. Others found zero help if they had a dispute with a seller. The site allows sellers to lie. One seller sells above average "replica" shoes. Another seller (showing the same photo of paranormal foams) is selling junk.

Some credit card companies are not anxious to help you if you are not happy with your purchase from a CHinese site.

Sometimes you take a chance; sometimes you don't. Only you can decide.

Any brand names offered there are almost certainly Chinese counterfeits. If that's OK with you, it still might not be OK with customs, one of the added risks in buying from China.
