Canvas Prints from China eBay ?3201

COLLECTOR DarthLego private msg quote post Address this user
Has anyone here bought a canvas print from a low feedback eBay seller located in China? I want to know if these are legit sellers or scammers who frequently create new accounts, hence the low feedback?

These are art thieves that swipe artwork from the web and plaster it on anything they can. None of the $$ goes to the artists.
They have to change names cause they get hit with copyright infringement reports. If you like the work the artists do, do not support these kinds of sellers.

That is what I figured. But my question is do they actually deliver the product?

Most of my experience buying from overseas, especially China, has been bad. I've been burned so many times that if they have low or no feedback I just move on. Usually eBay will refund your purchase but it takes several weeks and it's just not worth the headache to me. Also agree with what Thorne said about supporting the artist and not what is most likely a thief. In the end it's your money and you may do with it whatever you like but that is my 2 cents.

I have bought things from eBay sellers that originate in China
Don't bother trying to send anything back it never gets back to them.

I prefer aliexpress over eBay when ordering from China, dhgate is also pretty good. They have gaurenteed refund if items aren't received within at most 60 days (sellers can set the number of days lower but I think 60 is the max) and they use an escrow type system so you don't pay the seller, you pay the money to aliexpress and only when you confirm item received and satisfied will the sellers be paid.

@shrewbeer I'm pretty sure you can find those prints from reputable US dealers.

Not in the least. I use it all the time for things from charging cables to socks to vaporizers. Never had any problems that weren't resolved quickly, even had items arrive after the gaurenteed date and still received a refund.

Aliexpress is like the eBay of alibaba. Alibaba is more for wholesaling and sourcing quantities of items, aliexpress is like the Chinese version of eBay reselling.

My girlfriend was selling paintings online. She said that china sellers were copying her work and selling them cheaper. She'd ship flat so as to not damage the painting. She said the China sellers would roll theirs up and people were receiving them damaged. I have no first hand knowledge. I'm just relaying what she said to me as a rant.
