Has anyone ever shopped on this website. I just wanted to make sure it wasnt a scam.

How do you know if a website is legit?

Hmm. Not sure.

There doesn't seem to be any reviews of that store. That's not necessarily bad, but it's not good either. Personally, I'd probably pass on it, and look for a retailer that has a reputation online.

But, if you do decide to make a purchase from them and it's a good experience, be sure to post a review on a site like Reseller Ratings. It will help future customers.

Well I dont even see a place where you can write a review. I know when I shop on backdrop outlet.com there is a place to write a review on each product.

I just dont kow. I have only shopped very few online stores. I guess I can find somethign cheap and go from there. I mean it's probably no worse than ebay which I have shopped alot there.

Thanks.

I meant write a review of the store, not the product. If you look at the Reseller Ratings website, you'll see that the reviews there are about the stores themselves and the experiences people have had with the stores. That's what I was referring to.

I havent seen many backdrop stores that have reviews of them. I have ordered from several smaller companies and ended up getting low quality product pretty much every time, I've never tried that company before though. I would stick with the bigger companies B and H, Aura Backdrops, Denny.

Here is a really good deal I found-
Advanced Photography Backdrops Pack - $449.00
