Is 9starbag.com a scam?
I came upon this website at random and found something I would love to purchase. I would just like to know if this website truly does sell these products and that they won't scam me? I know the quality of their products are not authentic, but do they send the purchased product to their customers? Or are they a complete scam? Any help would be awesome!
Update:Buffy & Jack
A HUGE thank you to both! I guess I shouldn't be all that surprised but thought I would double check. Clearly I need to work on my researching skills, because if it were just up to me I probably would have just bought the items. Thanks again you guys!!

100% scam.
That is a fake website pretending to sell cheap merchandise.
Any site that advertises merchandise cheaper than the official manufacture's website is a fake site shipping gosh awful crappy knock-offs or simply collecting cash and not even bothering to ship fakes.
The pictures on the site look like the real merchandise because those pictures ARE of the official merchandise. Those pictures were stolen from the official manufacture's website. If you receive anything at all, which is doubtful, it will not resemble those pretty pictures at all.
The payment options say it all, Western Union and paypal. The credit card icons are just there for show, that site does not accept credit cards, only anonymous cash payments.
Western Union and moneygram do not verify anything on the form the sender fills out, not the name, not the street address, not the country, not even the gender of the receiver, it all means absolutely nothing. The clerk will not bother to check ID and will simply hand off your cash to whomever walks in the door with the MTCN# and question/answer. Neither company will tell the sender who picked up the cash, at what store location or even in what country your money walked out the door. Neither company has any kind of refund policy, money sent is money gone forever.
Paypal can only get your money back if there is money left in the scammer's paypal linked bank account. Scammers know this and will withdraw your money immediately, no money in the account means no possibility of refund for you.
In all seriousness, when something goes wrong, what will you do? Send an email that is ignored and blocked? Send chat requests until you are ip banned? Call internationally and speak fluent Chinese?
The UPS, TNT and DHL icons are there only to take up space, that site only ships with EMS, the Chinese post office, good luck getting the "tracking number" they give you to work on the EMS website. You will need even more luck trying to contact EMS when your tracking stops and your "package" is lost somewhere.
You could then be really lucky, your "package" is discovered, seized by "customs" and all you need to do is pay even more money via Western Union or moneygram to the "custom's official" who uses a free email address just like that site has a free email address as its contact information.
Free email addresses are easy to open and close completely anonymously.
Hey. I know I'm super late answering this, but I have something to say. First of all, the folks who gave u negative responses have obviously never placed any orders with nine star. I have bought several pieces from 9starbags and they are very true to their claims. All my replica louis Vuitton bags/accessories have always been 100% real leather and absolutely beautiful! I have purchased many authentic LV items over the years and directly from the LV stores inside malls, mostly from Honolulu and Las Vegas, and I seriously cannot discern any differences between my real ones and my fake ones from 9star. I highly recommend this vendor and am about to buy another bag from them right now, as a matter of fact! The only thing I can say that sucks about ordering from oversees, is u may have to as long as a month to get ur stuff. But, u will be sooooo happy and excited and very pleased, that it makes it all worth the wait! I truly hope u will see my answer. Happy shopping!!
