I ordered Nike sport shoes from sportsshoes-brand.com. The site sent me to realpay.com to set up the payment. I thought it was similar to paypal. I made the payment using my credit card. I received a message from my bank showing that a transaction was done on my credit card with the total of CNY 562. I was surprised that the real price was $ 87.97 not CNY! Nothing on the sportsshoes-brand site indicates it is in China, faq shows transactions are sent by gov. Mailing system and should take 7-10 days. Realpay sent me an email showing transaction, money was more than originally quoted. They explained that was because of currency rates. Also was not provided any kind of tracking # just an order number that isn't recognized by the gov. Mailig system. Started looking into realpay, saw that they are everywhere with sales of athletic and high end merchandise from websites originating in China. Hopefully it is not too late to try and dispute the charges.
