    Have you ever used Tradekey?

    I want to know if anyone has ever ordered from any of the companies on Tradekey. I have received many offers, and there are some I like and I don't know which ones to trust and which ones to not trust. Is there any way to find out if a company is legit or not.

    Do you trust using Money gram? All the company's have told me Money Gram and Western Union. Do you have to pay extra to western union to transfer money through them? Also, some of the companies said they allow paypal but said i would have to add extra because of some fees they have to pay for paypal. Some told me its 20% extra, 15% extra, 10% extra or 5% extra. i get different amounts from all companies

    Trade key is only a B2B web for sellers to meet buyers, I do not think that they will talke the responsiblity to guarantee all suppliers are legit. Best way to check out a supplier is visiting them, talk to them face to face

    Fyi

    Agree with flagexport, tradekey is only a platform and you need to vertify the vendor by yourself-I had bad experience on tradekey, some verdors are really bad-this do not mean tradekey is bad.

    Some companies prefer pay by paypal, and in China, paypal do not charge to personal account. And for company account, the charge is no more than 4%.

    If you are looking for some Electronic items from China then there are 99% chances that you'll get something useless. I would advice you to Google the company name with different keyword combinations like scam, fraud & cheat before coming to any decision Or you can discuss some vendor here as well.

    Tradekey just is a Platform to introduce factories to foreing buyer. if you want get more info from factory,you sould call them first and talk to them face to face. or you can ask them some pictures of licence showroom workshop and so on. but that would be some trick. or you can find a Chinese to inspect this factory and take some pictures for you first.
    my client in North Ireland also ask me to do so

    the rule is: make a reasearch of your prospective supplier!
    Personally I prefer to deal with european b2b platform. I use momoway business searcher,
    for me is more transparent, but still always make double, tripple check of my prospective supplier,
    this is my recipe for avoiding scams
