    It is probably based in China.

    Depending where you are , you might encounter import taxes and "government handling charges"

    For people living in the UK, lower value purchases ( from what I have read, that means < £135 ) do not attract import tax, but they do attract vat - therefore unless it is charged by the site there could be problems and "government charges" at the point of entry.

    I have seen many people in the UK complaining about it online.

    Previously in the UK it was less than £15 no vat and less than £135 no import tax. Small value items used to be no issue.

    Apparently, now uk customs add vat (20%), which isn't a problem, but they also charge £12 for doing so.

    Therefore the £2 item that was purchased ends up not at £2.40 , but at £14.40

    At least one person was complaining it is a catastrophe for his small pc building/ refurbishing business, which depends on being able to purchase very low value items from China.


    I have heard that some of the big Chinese sites ( e.g. Ali Express) do now charge vat for UK purchases, which they then remit to the UK government. That would avoid problems at the point of entry and "government charges".

    But the smaller sites such as the one you linked may not be able to collect the UK govt taxes for them. Those smaller sites are often a lot cheaper than e.g. Ali Express.

    If you are not in the UK, your situation will be different. Check and see if your country allows importing low value items free of tax.

    Buy something for a few cents and find out. How else?

    The OP is apparently in Canada so all the comments about the UK are irrelevant.

    And I agree with AddRAM that the question cannot be answered in any case.

    thesiteRank - tarquirope.com basic web seo stats information

    The domain has been in existence for 47 days (?!?)

    Just out of curiosity, I visited the site. Its response was extremely slow. The site also contains no information I could find as to where they are located. They claim to ship most orders within 10-15 business days.

    I'd at least wait a bit (like a year) before doing business with them.

    Both of those sites have the same contact email and do not have an office address listed. So I wouldn't trust them.

    Check out the contact email address given by vising the sites listed here:

    Sites with an email address SUUY2020@MSN.COM scam or letig? | Scam Info

    Same contact email address for multiple sites.

    Edit: Copy and paste the listed websites addresses into your address bar then click the "Contact" button or equivalent for each site and check the email address given.

    There are no contact details so there is no way I would use this web site

    I found nothing suggestive of China on the website there.
