Yes and no. Depends on how you look at it. It's cheap stuff for a cheap price for the most part. You could go to the dollar store and have it right then, verses waiting weeks for something to come over by boat.
If it is coming from China good luck. They never update their tracking site. I have 4 items I am still waiting for. I order them mid November. They were supposed to have been delivered over a week ago. I contacted support and that was a joke. They say they can help it if the seller does not update tracking and I am basically 'SOL'. Aldi don't buy any gold jewelry from China, it washes right off. You only get 3 refunds where they refund the shipping as well even if it is defective. Most things will cost more to ship back so it is not worth it. Stuck with a few things that way. US dealers seem to be ok.
Vendors from China are notorious for lying about their products. The pictures are stollen from other sites and passed off as their merchandise. I have received "sterling silver", according to them, that was cheap plating and wore off within weeks. I can only assume the stones are also fakes. I don't think you should ever buy anything from that site that is plated, even if the seller is honest about it being plated, your pretty piece will loose it's plating like you loose your summer tan. Why these people are allowed to continue selling this crap (those that lie about the product), is reprehensible. One last shady fact, if you look at reviews on Tophatter, I challenge you to find 1 negative comment I couldn't, and I've written some. If you've nothing to hide you post both good and bad reviews, let the customer decide. That's what honest websites do. No website has 100% positive reviews if their honest.
