It is bloated with poor quality no name products but it's fine if you stick with known brands. Reviews do suck tho. Fake reviews have made the rating system is useless.

I received counterfeit of real brands on there....

I guess I've been lucky but I also try to buy from the official brand seller.

That's the thing, it was mostly the officials!

Yeah, got some fake Wiimotes a few years back. Have to wonder how much other stuff was fake that I just didn't notice.
