Sorry but this will be a very long complaint.
I have found this site on Google after searching many pages I was so excited at the thought that I could get my partner the camera gear that he wanted for so much less than what we could by it here in Australia or on Ebay. So when he chose what he wanted I ordered it for him that being listed in US $ until checkout
1 of. Sigma 24-70mm F2.8 IF EX DG HSM for Nikon US$ 511.99 + Shipping
1 of. Nikon AF DX Fisheye-NIKKOR 10.5mm f/2.8G ED US$ 330.99 + Shipping
1 of. Nikon AF Zoom-NIKKOR 80-200mm f/2.8D ED US$ 581.99 + Shipping
1 of. Nikon D800 36.3 MP CMOS FX-Format Digital SLR Camera US$ 1,623.99
EMS Rates (Shipping to AU (1 x 1.50g) at US$ 33.00
my order was in Australian Dollars as I used the companies converter chart.So I checked out my online order cart thinking I would pay via Pal Pal and couldn't as I was only given 3 options of payment Western Union, Money Wire and one other that sounded way to hard.I mailed the online help desk and asked why I couldn't pay via Pay Pal and was promptly sent this link from a Linda Lin at [email protected] that this would explain more http://www.buyonsalecheap.com/faqs_all.html.
Then after finding out pay pal isn't for 1st time buyers I signed up to Western Union online only to try pay again.
I went back into the checkout cart and said I would pay via Western Union and was told check my email for confirmation and to confirm delivery address.This was the email response

Frustrated muchly I went into the Post Office with the cash to pay. Filled out the form and took it to the counter putting in my mobile phone number as it said for being a registered customer.Ii filled in the form with the details from this email again from Linda Lin

But the post office lady noticed I didn't have a street address on the the form and said it was needed as the conditions with Western Union had changed recently and I needed one or she couldn't proceed/ She also asked me if I was sure it wasn't a scam SO SO wished I had believed her but due to the quick responses to all my communications I believed it was the real deal. So I again emailed Linda Lin with the below email
2012/4/16 d*********@********.com <dd*********@********.com>
I am so sorry I need a more informative address for Western Union.

So with that I went back to the post office to pay the account. As I said above I registered with Western Union earlier that day BUT when the Post Office lady put in my phone number she said there was no membership coming up for that number so I am only now starting to wonder if Western Union are just as dodgy as www.buyonsalecheap.com but she said I could pay and a gold card would be issued after by mail so I did that paying in total including money transfer frees of $25.92 and the cost of goods being $2665 a total of $2690.92 then I as was told by the Post Office lady email Linda again with these details
2012/4/16 d*********@********.com <d*********@********.com>

Hello, how are you?
within 1 week.
Thank you.

I was informed by my partners mum after she tried looking up the same site via Google that this was a scam site. After feeling utterly sick to my stomach spending my partners full holiday payout figure from his x work of 7 years .I did my own investigating and found your site. I would like to give these people the benefit of the doubt but I have spent way more than many of the other reports on your site.I fear I have not only lost all my partners money but will not get our goods either. Please help us all.
Danielle.










Update: 05/15/2012

Just to add insult to the fact they ripped me off today in the mail I got a small tablet and an identical small tablet box that was completely empty . Supposedly jadkets and sports shoes written like that on the EMS docket charged at 164.00.

  • I hate to say this but those people in china are all nothing but liars, any website that has brand name electronics for sale has to have a business certificate before they can sell products from those companies, since they didn't take paypal I wouldn't have bought anything from the liars

  • That's a great loss pal,i lost usd.805.58 through the same scammer on 25/05/2012. sent cash by western union to mr.XIAJIOE XHU.never received my order up to date.They sent a worthless second hand toy tablet for kids through china post. I was nearly getting conned for second time by another scammer [email protected] (lianmary).Luckily i had mispelt the first name when filling western union forms.BOGIN instead of Boqin lin. i managed to stop the payment and got back my money less commission. i googled the email address and realized that its another scam.
