I purchased a number of items in late December/Early January. Some of the jewelry is nice costume jewelry. One ring looks really cheap and I'll never wear it, but the cost of shipping it back to China is prohibitive.
Electronic and tech gadgets that I bought are not branded, the instructions are in blurry 4 point font and completely useless. Today I spent $13 to return a $36 smart watch that I was unable to do anything with because I couldn't figure out the make/model. It cost $4 to ship to me. Just not worth the bother.
3 items I ordered and paid for in late December have never arrived. I requested refunds and was told they had to ship them again. I don't want them shipped again, I want my money back. It is cost prohibitive to return ship to China. I've requested refunds several times and yesterday I filed claims with Paypal requesting refunds, since Tophatter is giving me the runaround.
At first the site was kind of fun. But not anymore. I hope to get my refunds for the 3 items that I never received, the one item I sent back to China and the item I paid $90 for that can be purchased elsewhere for $40. That one was returned to California. Just be aware of the possible pitfalls when dealing with Tophatter.
