I recall last year that I was in the market for a coffee machine. At the time I was looking at Saeco and Gaggia brands.. and there were plenty in China. Cheap and obviously cons. However, non of the sellers took paypal - and it was western union or bank transfer.

I could see that these were cons.. but other UK bidders could not.

The point is that China is not the place to be buying any goods from, unless its small value and you can afford the loss of your £200-£1000 plus. Its a false economy to think your going to get a bargain, and if you want to avoid being in the position of regretting it - and thinking that you'd rather have put that money you lost to a new item, or one from a UK seller - then don't do it. 

So while it looks a bargain - it isnt . It's a con.
Read this guide. Take a deep breath. Pause. Have a coffee. Do all those, but just don't be fooled into thinking that you will get a bargain. You won't.

If paypal is not an option - then you will be parted with your money and you will not get your item.
