The Wholesale Forums

Hi, my name is Justin, and I have been viewing posts here for about a week. I got an email from this website, www.brand-warehouse.com. They call themselves Beijing Global Trading Co., Ltd. They accept Western Union or T/T Wire Transfer. I am looking for Lacoste Shirts, and they have them for $12 each delivered MOQ 25. The person who contacted me is named Sherry, her email is lacoste_sherry@163.com.

I also got another email from a person named Carl. He does not have a website, but calls himself Beijing Top Brand Fashion, Inc. He has Lacoste Shirts at: 25 shirts: USD$10.20(GBP5.95) per shirt including all the shipping fees. He also accepts Western Union and Bank Transfer. He said he would also dropship for $0.50 more. Carl's email is lacostefans@gmail.com.

Both use EMS, DHL, UPS, Fedex and TNT to ship, and the first company gave me previous tracking numbers for USPS. Here is the list of tracking numbers, I'm not sure if these prove anything or not:
EA710944471CN USA
EA710946044CN USA
EA710947257CN USA
EA710947169CN USA
EA710948875CN USA
EA710947209CN USA
EA710947138CN USA
EA710947186CN USA
EA710947172CN USA
EA710948853CN USA
EA710944644CN USA

As you can tell, I am very skeptic of these two businesses. Is there anyway for me to have my payment insured or delivery guaranteed using Western Union or the Bank Transfer? Has anyone worked with either of these people before, or any company or person like either of the two? Has anyone found Lacoste Polos at this price anywhere else?

Also, what is the normal protocol to make and complete an order through one of these companies? Should I make sure I talk to them over the phone before I go through with it? The second person offered me the option of buying 5 as a sample order, should I do that? Any help would be greatly appreciated! I will be checking this very often, so if you need more info just ask.

Thanks a lot,
Justin C

This sounds too fishy for me. T/T and WU are signs of scams. Not all that familiar with fashion products, but those prices sound too low.

My advice would be to steer clear.

I'm not sure if the Lacoste are fake. I just bought a batch of Lacoste at $17 each, and they are authentic or atleast so close that we could not tell the difference between the $17 shirt and the ones at Macys and department stores.

Any other input?

That's funny, I got an email from a guy named Carl (Carloong@163.com).
He never claim to be selling clothes though. Coincidence? I think not.

I got another email from a new site. It is niceclothings.com. Anyone heard of this site? Can anyone give me any advice on whether I should try or not?

Look at the prices. There is no way the stuff is authentic. I can´t believe there are still people out there who fall for that. If it is too good to be true, its likely to be fake.

Authentic goods come at a price. Brand new denim styles for $25-35? No way! I have customers asking me every day why i am so much more expensive than all these foreign wholesalers selling the lasted stuff for a couple of dollars. If you want authentic goods, be prepared to pay the price.
