Website was registered in 2004 and I could not find any complaints . The only thing I noticed was no contact address or phone number . The only customer points of contact are email , messenger and the website . Not a very good way to do business in my opinion .

It wasn't registered in 2004, it was registered a week ago!

With no physical contact details, it will be breaking EU rules.

It is clearly a Chinese website, so at best you will get a fake product and at worst nothing at all.

This sums it up

Payment Options

In our wholesale stores, we offer three methods for paying:Western Union or Bank Transfer T/T and MoneyGram

The only payment methods they offer are unreversible - you send the money and have no way of getting it back.

100% a scam.

is it safe or is it a scam?

[AlanJones]

I think I have already answered that - it is 100% a scam. There is no way to buy brand new brand name electronics at well below retail prices. Anyone offering them is a scammer and will not supply what you order.

[TerranceBoyce]

Buying from a Chinese website from a company you know nothing about, who you have no recourse if they don't send you any goods, is an open invitation for you to get scammed.

They'd be fools not to scam you because you wouldn't be able to do anything about it if they did and I'm afraid that most Chinese websites written for the Western market, in English, are purely designed to take your money and send you nothing.

If you're lucky you may be sent cheap defective replicas. China is the world home of replica goods in which case, even if they sent you anything, Customs may seize it.

Why would a Chinese site be written in English with a Chinese domain name ? Presumably no one in China would touch them with a bargepole and the chances of Apple allowing their goods to be sold at knock down prices from China doesn't happen.
