    The site design is terrible, they list an MSN address as a contact option - I've no idea for sure but I wouldn't be putting my credit card details in that site!

    The site was registered to a "Wu Gang" in Shanghai, China in August last year. The registrant also appears to own 491 other domains.

    Pretty much all the things advertised on ubingle are "brand name" products that are faked in huge quantities in China.

    If you buy anything and it actually gets shipped to you, don't expect it to be the genuine article, and don't expect to get any response from the email and MSN "Contact Us" points if you want your money back.

    They agree to the stock being all fake, however are they legit?

    The fact that the owner has registered hundreds of other domain names, and that ubingle.com appears in the following scammers list suggests not:

    In fact the size of that list alone would suggest that if you have any sense, you will avoid buying from ~any~ Chinese-based website unless you know for a fact that they are genuine (i.e. you have direct evidence of them actually delivering goods of an adequate quality).

    Not quite - it's illegal to import counterfeit goods and they could be seized by customs.
