Electronics Place Inc - SCAM!

Please don't purchase any electronic items online at Electronics Place Inc, Sales Manager name is Powell Tucker! Evidently, they took 10,000QR from me and asking for additional 1500$ for Qatar Quarantine payments. Called QPOST, without any tracking number as Powell does not want to give and learned no parcel arrived for me.

Lesson Learned indeed for me. Felt stupid for believing for getting an item less cheaper than buying in Qatar.

Thanks to QPOST guys for checking and very speed action from their side.

Shopping online and dealing online transaction with someone you don't know is extremely risky.

BUT there's only one Website i used to shop online and its already tested because i tried many times, "Its called eBay"

So far so good, the last item I order with eBay is the 3D projector and I got the item in 7days time.

I have really a good experience with eBay.

If it's too good to be true...it's too good to be legal!!!

Always deal with "in country" located sellers. Overseas sellers would pobably take the money and you will end up getting nothing.

Regards!!
