How it is possible? These guitars retail in the country of manufacture,for over $ 2500 !I could not find the exact model,however this one is a similar model:

I can assure you that no would sell a genuine Les Paul,for less than $ 2700 .Infact,the $ 400 ones are fakes:

Eh, that one listed in dhgate is an 'eGuitar' les paul guitar which is made in an OEM factory in China. It just refers to the shape or style and in no way pretends to be otherwise.

The link you have posted is a 'Gibson' Les Paul which of course is the collaboration of Gibson and the Jazz artist Les Paul in 1950 making in my opinion the best looking guitar there is.

I personally have a Les Paul styled guitar but made by another company. So obviously they will be price differences as one is the original and the other is imitation.

DHgate are not all scammers. There are many legitimate traders on their. Had you read the description properly you would find they never claim to be those makes, Just made in the style of them. Not meaning to sound condesending but you shouldn't start discrediting a company until you know the full story.

Have to agree with beneddie i have found some good suppliers their, course there will be bad as well
Just to go off topic here a bit beneddie the link in your posts just takes you to ebay saying no such id just wondered am i being thick and missing something here just curious

There is not a single thing on that website that isn't fake.

If you want to get in trouble for copyright infringement, DHGate is the place to go.

I have heard that they have new appraisers working to protect North Face, and I guess it could be true because they only have about 40 items for North Face. Whereas, they have upwards of 10,000 for almost any other designer brand

Sorry but that statement just isn't true, like all of these types of sites there are the problem sellers and particularly in the clothing market you will face issues. Again however if you are looking at the designer clothing market then wholesalers (for designers) just isn't going to happen (unless they buy end of run/closeout stock).

DHGate has, and still is, providing me with some good suppliers.

Is there such thing as a fake console like that - would i be running much risk buying this line of product from dhgate you think?

What price are you looking at? I can supply them for around £300 from HK.

I agree 100%. If you go on any off these B2B sites looking for electronics such as consoles and mobile phones then unfortunately there will be scammers.
However, go look on Alibaba or co. for something like textiles or cardboard boxes and you would find nothing but legitimate suppliers.

They posted this somewhere else a couple of days ago
We recently put Nike, LV,The North Face into our remove list, which means the items with these keywords will be removed automatically in a scheduled period.
More and more action will be taken for brand protection._________________
