IOffer is a sellers web site, like eBay stores. IOffer is extremely seller friendly, offering little in the way of buyer protection or a reliable feedback system. Items for sale are mostly fakes and replicas, some of which are deceptivly represented as originals. Also, pirate media sold on iOffer.

Some may be looking for knockoffs and pirate media, and may find iOffer is a good place to find sellers. Although the registration process is buggy and some find they cannot even register as a user, thus are unable to make purchases. Sellers are mostly located in China.

Finally, never buy unless you can pay by Paypal via Credit Card. Maybe Credit Card direct is ok, but never -- ever -- pay by debit card, checking debit, western union, or money order. You will want to have buyer protection from Paypal or your credit card, namely best with Visa, if you decide to take a risk and use iOffer.

Ok, most everything on ioffer.com is counterfeit, but if that is not a problem then you will find all types of nice fakes. Now, most of these sellers are from China, so I would be careful. Do not use sellers that have little to no feedback and just opened an account. Find sellers that have hundreds and even thousands of feedback (read the feedback to see if it is current). Know what quality of fake that you want. The A++ quality will cost more, but they have good prices, do deals on multiples, and lets you make an offer. I have found some gorgeous items on ioffer, but just be careful when dealing with international. I suggest using sellers that take Paypal, those sellers are doing good business, they know that we in the United States like secure transactions. Some sellers only take Western Union or bank transfers.. you have no backup with that, use your credit card through paypal so that with any problems you can always do a chargeback. Also, make sure to get tracking information from the seller, they use EMS for shipping and it takes 5-8 days.

Is ioffer a legit website?

IOffer is much like eBay. That means it is legit, but there are a ton of scam artists on there. So just do some research of who you're buying from, just as you would on eBay.

Is iOffer legitimate?

The iOffer site itself is very legitimate. It's an open platform for buyers and sellers to make transactions with each other. I've been using it for almost a year now and it's been good so far.

There are a lot of sellers overseas, and like any other online marketplaces, there are authentic and replica items for sale. so depending on what you're looking for, just be careful when you're buying.

Read the entire descriptions, look into the sellers, and make sure you know what you're getting. ask questions and read past transactions and feedback.

But to just answer your question, yes iOffer is legitimate. Hope this helps!

iOffer is a scammers paradise

1) iOoffer allows sellers to import feedback, but they can select the feedback they import. They can import the positive feed back from eBay with out importing any of the negatives and start out with a 1,000 feedback rating at 100% satisfaction before selling a single item on iOffer, even though they neglected to import the 100 negative feed back ratings they got on eBay. 2) eBay banned the worst 1% of sellers recently and are looking at banning more sellers that fall below the minimum requirements for customer satisfaction. 3) When you make a negative feedback to a seller for not sending an item you paid for, iOffer buries your feedback and the comment in the back of the list, so buyers do not sees feedback that points out sellers who do not deliver. 4) iOffer refuses to have a Buyers club category. iOffer Clubs are like discussion Boards on eBay.

I started a club on iOffer for buyers who have been cheated by sellers. Even though my Club was the newest club it was still pushed to the back of the "newest clubs listing" and fell to the last page (behind 177 older clubs) My listing as the newest of the new should have been placed on the first page. In order to access all of the newest clubs, you must manually manipulate the URL. If you click to be taken to the last page or 3rd page or what ever of the "newest club" listings, you will be redirected to the most popular clubs. iOffer actively are redirecting members from joining clubs that might be critical of their operations or wish to discuss the cheaters. The most popular clubs are run by sellers who left eBay and are now selling on iOffer. Of course it is impossible to guess how many of these are sellers who were recently banned from selling on eBay, but it doesn't take a diploma to figure out it is quite a few, especially since the most popular topic at these clubs is critical of the new DSR ratings on eBay which are used to oust these sellers.

ioffer.com - feedback please

Had a look around this site and there seems to be way more scams going on than there is on Ebay.. Example: People selling pirated Windows 7 DVDs with another CD with the Windows 7 Loader which makes the OS seem legit and are making a fortune out it at AU$7.90 or $20 for Win7 & Office 2007 posted .. Buyer comments on these pages where they ask if these are legit the seller always seems to ignore that question and answers others.. But seems to get good feedbacks ? Other people are selling brand new external drives loaded with 350+ movies, some drives are 1TB or 2TB, also others selling these loaded with games

I dont want to link these pages i found as to me it constitutes as being warez.. How do these people get away with this sort of thing is beyond me. I have seen plenty stuff that seems legit but i think i would feel safer using Ebay
