Is this website legit for selling Dayan cubes?

I've bought from this website once and got a decent Dayan Zhanchi. But, since it was my 1st Dayan Zhanchi, I am scared that I was given a counterfeit.

It is pretty good because it turns very fast but I'm a very inexperienced Rubik's cube user so I am unable to comment on it in great detail.

The website is: dayancube.com

Does Dayan cubes have an official website? I can't order from Amazon since Amazon rejected my CC.
Anyone know legit websites?

The reason why I am afraid is because, I turn the top layer (U) 45 degrees clockwise, then try to turn (R), but it wouldn't let me. Maybe because I'm inexperienced? When I try to, it's almost as if my cube is going to explode.
Or is it not supposed to?

Other than that, the cube turns very fast but I dislike the noise. :(

Well, one thing you can do is take apart the cube and see if it matches up with one from a youtube review.
 
Yes, I believe that the website in question is the official Dayan Cubes website. Your cube probably just needs some adjustment. Take a look at this video by cyoubx that shows you how to tension your Dayan cubes to corner cut at least 45 degrees. Some legit websites are FastTech and Lightake. To the best of my knowledge, these are cheap chinese websites that get all of their products straight from the chinese factories right next to them, which is how they get super cheap prices (especially FastTech). However, sometimes I get really weird stuff going on with their products (I got a 50 mm Zhanchi and the core was completely defective; the screw would come out completely after about 5 turns or so. I got it replaced by another 50 mm from FastTech that they sent to me for free, and the exact same thing happened.), and plus, the shipping takes forever since it's from China, so if you're in the US, some good speedcube shops are SpeedCubeShop run by Cameron Brown (camcuber), thecubicle.us run by Phil Yu (asmallkitten or a small kitten) and James Chang (a cool guy). I personally use the cubicle, since it's run in New York, and NY is closer to Illinois than California is. There are also some other good speedcube shops that I'm just not mentioning here that I'm sure others will post.
 
The website dayancubes.com should be legit, because this website is the official Dayan cube website, but if you do not believe me, then take apart your cube and match it with something else, I do not think that your cube can turn they way you did, but it will work with about 40 degrees. The reason I know this is because I have a stickerless Dayan cube.

I hope that helped!

PS if you still do not trust the website after all these replies, check out thecubicle.us, they have good cubes and the website is legit, and look around the forum, you should find some positive things about the website, because it is trusted by many cubers.
