Is Shopkastking a scam?

[Jake51823]

Hey all, so I was looking at what I thought was kast kings site. There’s kastking.com and then shopkastking.com. I ordered something off of shopkastking.com and realized it wasn’t their direct site. What is this site? Is it even legit? I didn’t even receive an email after I put in an order.

Anyone know?

Major red flags pop up for me after only 30 seconds on the site.

 

 1: nowhere on the site is the Kastking logo, just the word Kastking.

 

2: If you go to the “about us” section it says it’s a supplier of cellphone parts and accessories 

 

The reviews online also suggests you might be out your money. Just order your Kastking stuff from Amazon or Kastking.com

Yeah that’s fine. I used my credit card not my bank card thankfully. It hasn’t charged my card yet and no email but i don’t even care if they take the money it was only 50 bucks. Just don’t want them to take my card info ya know

Bummer.  I would think it's a scam site.  

 

And what's odd and sort of funny, people use to think (and this has changed) that Kastking in general was a scam company but yet they have taken their place among other reel companies.   

 

I would, in the future, look to legit sites for equipment or if it sounds too good to be true, ask the guys here.  We can, generally, point people in the right direction before buying.
