Has anyone ever bought anything from these guys? I just stumbled on their site and they are really cheap. Just goes to show that ive been getting ripped of with UK prices for too long. Anyway I just wanted to get your feedback. Ie: are they a scammers site ect.....

Thanks

I'm pretty sure they are safe. One of their representatives post here from time to time with new images of phones and there is always no nasty comments or hard feelings between members and the plemix guy. Also I quite often see other members, especially US members suggesting to buy from them.

I believe you can normally tell a scammer from the website and the plemix site is a good site, not cheap and crappy and scammerish.

Hi Bav

I think he is either a business partner or cousin of X137 and seems to be used a lot by US buyers he has lot's of good things said about him over @Howard Forums and even has listings there.

Hey guys, I'm just going to bump this thread because I am planning to buy a new phone soon, and Plemix.com is my main option at the moment.

I know I previously stated in this thread that they are trustworthy, but that has been called into question a bit with the discovery of this website:

http://www.plemixsucks.com/sucks/

I know that website might be talking about those one in a million cases, but I'd just like to hear a bit more about Plemix before I go trusting them.

Firstly, can people confirm that their phones are brand new, unopened, and still with the factory screen protecting film on the phone?

And secondly, has anybody here had any bad experience with them?

Thanks in advance!

as i stated earlier, i got a w890 from them.

was perfect service, good communications, fast shipping, item was brand new. note wholesalers do test handsets to ensure they turn on before they send out. screen protectors are in place like you would expect from a new phone

Cool thanks man. I guess I'm just a bit skeptical of buying over the internet after so many horror stories recently.
