1st mistake I made was following an ad on FaceBook. 2nd was I didn't save a copy of the ad.Since it was linked to PayPal I felt it had to be legitimate. Plus the PayPal purchase protection.
After waiting a long time for the delivery I get something that doesn't even come close to the ad. The description was 2 speed electric (battery powered) wood planner. The price was not crazy either (aka to good to be true).
Not what came. What I got was a hand held bird planer. Saw it on another site for $8.00.
I contacted the email given and now await a response. I think I have to stop ordering from China. Not the first I have done so and regretted it.
Ordered 2 speed model 735 power plane after watching video ad on line.
Price very low, but video and feedback and returns info very impressive. Item displayed looked exactly the same as Dewalt model 735 2 speed planer (nimus logo).
Tracking info shown after payment. Tracked item arrived was a few hundred grams vs 23kg as originally anticipated. Item inside was a 9" spoke shave, although marking on package was 'electric wood planer'.
Subsequent searches on line shows the same address involved in other scams.
Purchased using Paypal, so hopefully this will be reversed eventually.
I see someone else has fallen foul of Shenzhen Gusong InfoTech Ltd.
Yes, I also followed a Facebook ad. Silly me! The ad offered a 3/8 drive battery ratchet for around $32US, delivered. Payment via PayPal seemed safe. Item described as a "ELECTRIC WRENCH 3/8" CORDLESS RATCHET" with full tracking and shipping insurance. After several weeks, I received a 4" adjustable spanner/wrench (a "shifter" as they are called in Australia) and one that could be purchased for $2 at the local bargain shop.
After placing the order, I felt a little suspicious so I emailed the seller asking that they confirm I was receiving a battery ratchet. They responded with the old "many happy customers, etc" so I replied to that email asking that they confirm what I was receiving or cancel the order. I've never heard from them again. I have opened a PayPal dispute.
This is the second time I have been ripped off in as many weeks via Facebook ads. At least the other one is communicating with me and I may get a refund. Bottom line: if it looks too good to be true, even with PayPal payment, forget it!
