EMS shipping? Scam possibility?

The problem isn't with EMS it's the person whom sold you the item(s). I've used EMS a few times and have been very happy with the service. EMS is no different than the US Post Office and their tracking seems to be on par with the US Postal service and arguably better. In order to insure that you're not burned in the future, I suggest making payments via PayPal and I actually like using DH Gate for goods from China since they keep it in escrow til you confirm receipt of the item. This is better thhan eBay.

Good Luck

This post is hilarious. To think EMS is a scam is just silly. It is the chinese postal service.
I haven't had problems, but it does take time for the tracking number to show up and there seems to be a delay in the information. Canada post does this too. It sends you email updates, but sometimes it sends it after it was delivered saying "delivered". Obviously if you got it you don't need the email to tell you it was delivered.

I also bought a iphone from china and they used EMS shipping and tracking. I was sent a tracking number but item could not be tracked. Now I was informed that the seller has deleted the tracking number from the website. I am awaiting a new number hopefully by today but I feel like I've been scammed for sure!

I have ordered from China.

Due to tracking:

Hi, i'm so glad i found you guys. I am on the brink of buying goods through alibaba.com and wholesale-outlets.com from Chinese Manufacturers named Evergreen Leather Goods, and Honesbusiness. They tell me i can pay through western union, bank transfer, credit card. Using ems as the shipper. Does anyone know of /done business with these companies, are they legitimate? I'm trying to source fashion handbags, so anyone who knows a legitimate supplier, whether in China or the States. Help me please.

Is there a site that we can go to to find out if china website company is legit?

I ordered a pair of boots off of www.uggboots-shoes.com does anyone know about this site and if the people are scammers or not. I have a tracking number and it shows me when it was dropped off to a sorting center but it never left china. Is there anything i can do?

this is there info:
Seller's Name: Zhang Zhong yongSeller's Email: aiouluois766@tom.com

and this is the order status in a language i can't understand:
Order Status: 已发货

How did you go? My similar story of tracking number that wouldn't track & no delivery as yet. Scammed?
