I am not related to banggood, but i have bought about 30 items or more from bang good (which arrived) and about 10-15 are on the way. It usually takes about 3 to 5 weeks to arrive to Turkey.
I used to use DX a lot but once they got big they kind of bumped up the prices. I also use firefox on the mac and it has not complained to me so far.
I have the same problem as you btw, that is why i post these links to the cheapo chinese sites because i pay 2.5 usd for 10 of the connectors instead of 2.5 usd for USA citizens plus 40 usd extra shipping for us non USA citizens.

Re: BangGood.com for JST connectors?
It's good to hear your experience with banggood. I also got a good and serious impression from their well organized webshop, but when you get a warning like that from Firefox you have to find out what's going on. It is possible that there is a false warning because of errors or because of false rumors by competitors like DX or because of criminal activity anywhere on the net interfering with the commerce for theft from clients or attempts of extorsion of BG or of their banker. Even profit from dropping share values is a thought.
As for now I have no way of placing my order there until I resolve this. I will attempt to use IE to see if I can get passed this point or I could try it from a Linux machine which is usually a lot safer.
Yes if I were a US businessman looking for opportunity I would start a mediating web service to help local web shops to get high turnover abroad by getting collective deals with transportation and storage to get more attention from foreign companies. It helps if local economy sucks to have a good running business with clientele abroad.
No matter how big the US of A is, there is always a larger potential market abroad. Luckily the 3D printing community is pretty international and even the name Rostock is originally from somewhere close to the Polisch border in Germany. I believe they had a first ever convention there about this three vertical axis concept.
We used to be that 80% of our radio and TV news programs were about the international affairs, but not in USA because commercial interest demanded that for advertising the locals would be more willing to listen local news items and advertising on local news shows was always generating more income. So our public radio and TV facilities were for a large portion turned into commercial enterprises and 10 year frequency concessions were auctioned to the highest bidders. My favorite news programs are no longer supported by enough transmitters that I can tune into then while outside riding on my bicycle or while letting out the dog or sporting. I can get only one commercial news station doing 90% local and business news. I am intelligent enough to understand I need to compensate for that loss but most people just accept that they are bothered with exaggerated scarey news of local crime and problems with foreigners and of course cyber crime pornography on the net. The rest of the day they are kept brain dead we are becoming like what most of us conciser Americans that have little interest for non local subjects . This poor attitude blocked out Turkey from joining the EU. After the total shock of having Rumania and Bulgaria joining EU while most of the public was sleeping and brain dead they were played out against Turkish membership by real nasty politicians, which would not have been possible in the 60's and 70's as almost all people were much better informed. I would have been all for it but of course with enough time to make small steps to see how the process would be going. But even within the union the selfishness basis of the EU is causing fugitive problems in Italy and Spain and we are not cooperating to solve the problem only to shove it into another member's backyard. I am convinced the pure attention only for local news and items in the media is the main problem. BBC still has their non commercial attitude and they make real good news programs but all else is forcing us to focus locally.
I've been on internet since 86 at least ( email and banking with telnet all through modems and telephone lines and occasionally roaming BBS's ) and the trend was even noticeable when in '95 commerce took over although there is a hard reality that people communicate from all over the world an so they do notice each other. Commerce didn't succeed in destroying that! It would have been easier for you when Turkish Greek/Bulgarian borders would be have been totally opened for trade and traffic.
But you did your ordering there with very nice results and I need to find out what went wrong in my case and why. It is almost as if the DX site is completely based on the same products and maybe even the same database and search engine only a different name logo. like DX reinvented them selves with an other name and a reduced price list.
I'll have to try some more later today.

Re: BangGood.com for JST connectors?
Best i do not express any views with current govt.
But i do agree that with stuff mnf in china it is best to get it directly from china. Intermediaries double the price every time.
I also fail to grasp how shipping from one side of the world can be almost free and shipping from the other side of the world can be more than an arm a leg and your first born.

Re: BangGood.com for JST connectors?
Hi Teoman,
I can guess this about banggood:
It is all in the organization of the logistics and the size of the business. A Chinese company like banggood has many container's full of stuff going to US and Europe zone that they can send multiples of 20' containers that they process them selves in china and in the destination zone. Then they have local parcel services competing with each other and they also try very hard to get each order split up in small enough items so they fit in envelopes and can be sent by post and delivered through normal mailboxes or door slots without the postman having to wait for the recipient to open the door or deliver at a neighbor's. Everything looks cheap and has no source printed so practically nothing is ever stolen. By selling everything and anything except maybe fresh or frozen foods for the lowest prices ever they get very large volume, giving them a good bargaining condition with the producers, the shipping and the local delivery firms. If they can think of a way to do things cheaper then firms that they require services from then they change the system even if they have to do it them selves. I think they also test simultaneously multiple strategies and finally turn to the cheapest one.
For us it is not only the price that counts but usually hard to get items are real easy to come by now, but I feel bad about the very poorly payed labor even for Chinese standards that these firms are forcing on the workforce. Much like Wallmart leaves only devastated communities and a majority of their employees need government food stamps to survive. This is mostly within the US of A so it is very visible to people there but if price is the only argument for buying something then that's what happens. It is the main reason for a counter movement in America "buy American" so manufacturers are forced to show that their product is made in America.... Using nationalism as a sales argument. Most stuff like that is only last stage assembled in the US but it feels good. Toyota had to make an end assembly line in America to allow the made in America label. SeeMeCNC has a proudly made in America? printed on the box somewhere. The whole idea of a Rostock open source model is international cooperation, but many Americans would not buy it if it were not US made.... I love some of the ideas from the American DIY market like the melamine boards that many parts are made of and the availability of these materials in many hardware stores and online helps people to try out ideas. The pioneer history is why many materials are widely available, everybody had to repair their own stuff since the beginning of time... Post order ( Sears ) has been around since forever. Only because of the made in America idea these shops still survive.
