Dear Terence, 

Depends on what you define as "legit". Overlimitz (a.k.a in other
venues as "Over Limits" or "Overlimits") sells what is supposed to be
designer goods. Nowhere on the site, at leats nowhere that I could see
as a client, do they mention, that the goods are not designer goods,
but "replicas", which is a nice euphemism for counterfeit items: when
you claim that something is Prada (and charge a Prada price for it),
and it is not made by Prada, it is a counterfeit item. In some
countries, misleading customers like that would be considered fraud.

"Hi-quality replica branded bags we deal.Pls if you are interested in
or you work on this kind of business , pls get details by email."

"Sports shoes

coach hangbags etc.I would like you to contact me by mail or msn as :

However, it should be mentioned that I haven't found any complaints on
the firm from their clients, accusing them of being a scam.

I hope this answers your question. Please contact me if you need any
clarification on this answer before you rate it. My search terms:
overlimitz (with terms such as scam, counterfeit, fake).

Dear Terence, 

Please note the following: 
- As I've already said, I've found no complaints online about this
firm. However, this could be because those who buy, and know that they
are involved in a dodgy activity as it is (buying counterfeit items),
would not report.
- It is also possible, that there are no complaints, because the firm
is located in China - no BBB or other, similar mechanisms.

In addition, the site registration information
(http://www.samspade.org/t/whois?a=+http%3A%2F%2Fwww.overlimitz.com&server=magic)
rebveals not only that the site has been registered for relatively
short period, but also that there is no full contact information
there; and that the emails provided, are ones provided by a Chinese
provider (similar to Yahoo! or Hotmail addresses), not exactly reeks
of professionalism.

Given that they only registered their domain for 1 year (see
http://tinyurl.com/8vr7k), I don't believe that you would receive your
products.
