How safe is it to buy PDAs from China? Can the quality of the PDA be as good as those purchased in the US or Europe?

If your going to buy a name brand product of PDA, you will save no money buying it in China.  If you buy from the national distributor in the U.S. you will save money.  If your buying an unbranded PDA.  I suggest you order samples, check their product warranty and have someone check that there are no bugs in the software it runs.  If you don't do this your investment may go down the tubes in product returns.

Replying to [Rentar]:Well in this case i think with inspection you can ask or buy for samples of the chinese PDA and have it check then you can tell wich is the best.

Replying to [Rentar]:You can answer that question for yourself. Do you have any proof at all that what you are buying from china is legit? Do you have more trust in buying the same product from a us store? There are different reasons why it is cheaper to buy from china, do you think quality is a factor?

I personally only buy from american distributors

Replying to [Ranger]:Hi

Replying to [Ranger]: So, basically, one is safer getting branded PDAs from the US inspite of the higher costs there!

What other options are available for getting cheaper good quality PDAs?

Replying to [Rentar]:6 months ago i bought a PDA from HP i have thought that is a big company and if i pay more about product all will be OK. After first week i had a problems. I went to service and their have started the problems i'm so dissatisfied from their service. I have to pay and they repair but afterthat evry month i had met with their support that was the worst expirience in my life. So if you want to buy PDA from China maybe is good reason. I have bought my from authorized representative for BUlgaria but i am not pleased from them

Even if they were a bit less expensive you will save thousands in headaches importing from China and risking financial losses or imprisonment.

Yep its far cheaper dealing with a distributor of the brand name in the U.S.  But then if your buying small quanities from resellers your profit margin get cut in half.  The thing is to know a true distributor from a reseller.  Besides the fact there is no risk factor involved.
