Is it safe to buy from this website and does PayPal offer any kind of buyer protection here?

I am looking to make a purchase from https://nz.drones-xpress.com/ using my paypal account.  I am asking here because it has been a while since I have bought anything overseas that requires shipping and shipping has been quite bad here lately.  Especially in buying anything from China and I am not sure exactly where there this company is based.  I am located in New Zealand.  From memory I think PayPal used to offer six month buyer protection.  Does anyone know if this has changed.  I am more concerned about non shipping more than anything as I have suffered from a pandemic of non shipping and the last one I even payed by PayPal.  What should I do to avoid making any mistakes this time?

Buyer protection still applicable on goods and services payments/PayPal Checkout.

 

What should I do if I have a problem with my PayPal purchase?

 

I’m not seeing any scam report results popping up about the site after a web search…other than high risk for spam. If the prices are too good to be true (so do a search on the average retail price on the specific item), it’s best to keep it moving.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

Ok, thanks.  Is there a way to protect myself from fake shipping tracking numbers as I hear some people lose out on buyer protection because of that.
