Hi there, I'm trying to purchase Native watercraft kayaks and Hobie Kayks from alibaba and have seen suppliers from Netherlands India and USA the only company to get back to me is the USA company Popo trading however for an English speaking country the email correspondence suggests they aren't from an English speaking background. I've tried looking into the company tried calling but the number doesn't work the details are: ph 1 484 9430349 and address is 1 peel street Phoenix Arizona USA zip code 85012. The other thing is they only allow PayPal if you buy more than 10 kayaks otherwise it's a bank transfer. I've asked for more details about the company and am waiting for a reply. Has anyone heard of these guys? How can I check their credentials? Is this a scam? Kind regards Daniel

I was ripped off. Spent $4 k on covers for our document for sale. The sample was fine but the product was shit. Run don't walk from Alibaba

I once took a punt and bought an outboard engine worth $3700. Paid upfront and waited. The tracking number failed each time I tried to track the consignment. Asked the seller about it and he said öh dont worry about that. We made that up to fulfill our requirements to Aliexpress. The item is actually being shipped and will be there in two months. I opened a dispute making the seller very angry. Good think I got my money back. But if the seller has unverifiable credentials walk straight past. Not worth the hassle and stress and your own business could suffer where you will not be able to deliver items that you sincerely think will end up coming to you.

Hi Daniel... there is a saying..."if it looks like s**t, smells like s**t, it probably is... if you cannot satisfy basic seller checks, such as phone number, don't go into it. Sorry I can't be more positive, but so many people lose money on various portals by not following the basics, and not trusting gut instinct... you know it stinks, don't you?
