Linkchina.com Review: Status Quo, Products, Users Complaints, Scam & More
Linkchina.com was one of the early founded china wholesale marketplace. In its early stage, linkchina.com almost cloned every single details of DHgate.com, including categories, function, user profiles. Using follow strategies did not made linkchina.com follow the success of dhgate.com. Let`s check what was the story in linkchina.com 1 The relationship between linkchina.com and dhgate.comLinkchina.com and dhgate.com were operated by different companies, however, there was a scandal between these two wholesale marketplaces. A dhgate.com staff, which had the access to the clients’ data, joined linkchina.com and used the stolen data to promote linkchina.com. It might be the reasion why linkchina.com copied everything from DHgate.com, even the seller names. They might plan to give an illusion that they were associated with DHgate. 2 Linkchina.com scam? Unsecure escrow services and user complaintsI believed it was unenviable for a small wholesale marketplace to stop scam, especially when it was small. Escrow heavily depended on the payment system. Not like the west internet company, most of the china wholesale marketplaces do not put buyers’ benefits in the first priority. So, even you complaint to them, they will not kill the sellers but telling you communicate with seller to solve it first. If you file complaint on PayPal, they even will ignore your voices for their policy was not cover not-as-description transaction. That was why we found some post saying linkchina.com was a totally a fraud in the PayPal community. Another awful key fact was the company staff may open stores, or the company put some stores there. It would jeopardize the buyer protection for so many other benefits were involved. Even if they could recruit sellers, they would stand on the seller site in order to preventing the sellers losing. Our research showed that linkchina.com did not have much active sellers and they did not have much aggressive seller recruiting campaigns.

Global-Wholesale.com Review: a website powered by DHgate.com-Exclusive
Recently a website called Global-Wholesale.com attracted my eyes. When I searched China wholesale in Google, I found Global-Wholesale.com listed on top of the search enquiry result page. I was quite annoying that it was quite hard to get contact info in this website for I always got the location info at the beginning of my each review, so to speak, where the hell of the website was from. Then I found a familiar name pop up, and I cann`t help myself to pitch the superising truth.
1 Global-Wholesale.com were powered by DHgate.com The above conclusion was based on the following key facts: a) Global-wholesale.com shared the same payee info with DhgateThe under payment info was listed in bother Global-Wholesale.com and DHgate.com for Western Union
" First Name: FANG
Last Name: JIANG
Country: China
Address: No.72 Su Zhou Street, Haidian District, Beijing, China"
When you pay with Paypal, you would found Global-Wholesale.com share the same Paypal account with DHgate. b) External Linking in Global-wholesale.com: Back to DHgate.com?Global-Wholesale.com shared the same model of DHgate.com so they were 100% competitors. However, we found Global-wholesale.com link back to DHgate.com at its footer (just see the illustration below). Was it possible that competitors build such kind of partnership? Absolutely No! Hmm… So 
c) The same IconWhat was more, when I visited Global-wholesale.com, I found the have the Icon of DHgate.com, which should be the mistake of those distrait developers. You could not find it in home page for it was too obvious. It only appeared in help pages. (Icon is a small file hosted on the sever)

TradeMIC Scam: Website powered by big Scammer- Exclusive Review TradeMIC claimed to be one of the leading wholesale marketplaces, However, we just found you might have very high risk when you doing business with their buyers. Just check our exclusive about TradeMIC. 1 TradeMIC Seller: Many fake profile It was quite interesting, when you open one or two categories, you will find that most of the listing items were from one or two sellers. What was more; most of them are gold seller, power sellers. It was very suspectable The other detail which I am rather sceptical about is the “Credit Score”. Two weeks ago, when I clicked the “Credit Score”, I can see similar feedback ranking exactly like Dhgate.com. However, most of the feedback seemed to be the same and machine generated.
It was gone when I check it again. So I just come to my solution, all those thing was fake and convinces you feel like” I am making business with lots of seller, I can compared and bargain” 2 Scam! Scam!! Scam!!!When I made further research by typing its Phone No. into the Google Search Bar, I just found result from lots of scam reporting sites. 3 Who the hell is TradeMIC I just used my relationship with other wholesaler suppliers in China to gain more info. One of the power seller said that TradeMIC`s owner was the one who named “ Xiaolai” in Dhgate. When you search DHGATE Xiaolai, you will find lots of info related with this ever Dhgate Power seller.

AliExpress Review: Alibaba Wholesale Escrow Trust Worth Or Not?
1 Ali Express Briefing
It was a wholesale platform like DHgate, almost the same: You and seller make a deal on the platform, you pay to AliExpress, Seller ships the good to you, you confirm then seller get the money.
This model was named Escrow.
2 Ali Express Suppliers
One of my friends, AKA my secret suppliers, told me that if AliExpress had a 20000 RBM (about 2900 USD) charge to become a verified supplier, what was more, AliExpress had a limitation for its first round recruitment.
It sounded that AliExpress had the highest standard for its suppliers, however, we found that some power seller in DHgate also stepped in this new wholesale market. As disclosed in the Power Seller Secrets Exclusive, we believed that some of the power seller did make direct money via all kinds of tricks. Thus, it came to my mind that how Ali Express control its suppliers and what are the differences, let`s check next section
3 Escrow and Payment Protection.
AliExpress`s Escrow was called AliPay, which was the bellwether in China Online Payment Field. (It defeats PayPal in 2003 when its affiliated C2C website, Taobao.com, took Ebay.cn down).Are there any differences between Alipay and other platforms? No! Except payment.Other platforms used PayPal as the payment gateway.( Please see Update 1 for more info) When you use PayPal, you may issue a dispute, claim or Charge Back when you experienced a scam.

Alibaba wholesale marketplace will be launched in Aug. 2009. I just make some research on line and found a little hints for this big news. In a website, a blog site, claimed itself as the unofficial blog for Beltal user, just release a competitor review. After geting the approval from Gorden, the site administrator, Review FBI now post this info here:" Recently we got confirmed information about Alibaba`s wholesale website. Alibaba is the leading b2b company. They recently launched two new services in the manager stage : wholesale services and Alipay. We think that alibaba will soon launch a Beltal similar platform, such as other wholesale marketplace, dhgate ,tradetang. The advantage for alibaba is they have payment settlement tool : alipay. According to its official financial report, the Paypal similar thing handle 90 Billion RMB transaction in 2008,1/3 of the ebay GMV!However, we think it will alibaba more time to become the bellwether for right now the china wholesale market is becoming mixed up by the fake products. We will continue report the update to let all Beltaler the latest news about the Wholesale" After research and confirmation, we found some post by a buyer in Alibaba`s community talking about the same thing. It is believed that their mini site is under developing.
