DHGate Scam? They are simply an online marketplace of buyers and sellers similar to ebay. They are not scammers because--
1) They have an affiliate program with Commission Junction which gives them a lot of credibility. Atleast it's not a phishing site or 12 days old fake domain.
2) If you search them in Google, they appear as an authority site which means even more credibility.
3) They also appear in a few reasonably credible wholesale websites with good ratings.
4) They accept Paypal and don't ask for bank transfer like other dodgy sites.
5) Their customer service number in China works and they are traceable.
This means that DHGate is not just a website that sells items where you can buy them direct from the company. Instead you are purchasing items from individual sellers using DHGate.com. It's a very similiar model to eBay where you want to make sure you check the feedback of the seller before making a purchase to ensure they are reputable. If a seller does not have feedback at all, do NOT buy from them as there is no creditability they are selling genuine products. One thing that you may be cautious of is that there are literally hundreds if not thousands of sellers that use DHGate and there are good sellers and bad ones. It's based on a feedback system so you only want to buy from the sellers that have a lot of feedback and have actually sold legitimate goods. You can find name brand products that are sold throughout the site but some are simply fake and others are replicas. There are some actual name brands that are sold, however you must check the feedback of the seller to make sure in the past they have sold authentic products.
Another thing to note about DHGate is their payment processing. Make sure you only use a payment system that you are protected by. Many of the sellers will only accept western union or wire payments which you definitely want to avoid. The problem with this payment option is that you do not have any security if the goods never show up. Always make sure you use a credit card or even paypal that will protect you against seller fraud.
