Address is a residence in california

Might be someone who opened a fresh business out of his house, not necessarily a scam

And he has 10 Avlb?!

 What turned me off, is his home page of his insulated bags, and when trying to search or see what he's selling nothing turns up.

ETA: their About Us is copy/pasted from other sites. Grammar mistakes and formatting inconsistencies abound, and customer service is a gmail address. I say it's definitely a scam.

That what it seems. A sibling was lured into buying something, shows the seller info as Zhikai Trading Co. Ltd.

 When googling that information it shows he's from China and...
 It's kind of hard to know if it's legit meaning they'll actually ship the items and it's just a knock off or?

Ya I saw that name too when I googled the phone number listed on this website.

No idea. Hopefully he can dispute the charge in any case. Maybe he should cancel his card now pre-emptively in case they want to charge more..

Good thing he went through PayPal.

 That's the only thing that makes me think it's semi legit.

In a way.. how else should a Chinese seller try to sell his products? By imitating another site and hoping people would buy from him and ship out the items.

Scam? The 3rd-party seller does have 93% overall positive but actual reviews on the seller page seem to be more negative...

Is this a scam? Selling a troy ounce of silver for $9, when value is way higher.
