Ok so I just phoned the Cape Town number.. 021 813 9396

 

A Nigerian answered. I asked if they had a Scalpel 2 in stock, he said yes but I must email hom for a quotation. I reminded him that the price on the web us R32 100 so why email for a quote? He then said if it is on the web then it is on the floor.. I asked where in Cape Town are they based, and he said they are in George. I said great, where in George, and he said 101 Hibernia Street. I said I'll come around and ended it there.

 

Clearly a scam.

 

My suggestion is that lots of us keep irritating the life out of him on this number I phoned: 021 813 9396

I gave them a call now

I said I want the Trek Madone for R12 000, he said yes its the right price

He asked repeatedly for my e-mail address, but I just said they dont need it, I just want the bike and I will pay cash.

 

They dont do COD orders, if I want to see the bike I will have to come to the shop in George.

After explaining to him that I am in JHB he said they will deliver within 24 hours, but they need the full amount paid

 

I refused and said I will pay cash when I have seen the bike and its 100%

We wont on and on like this for a couple of minutes

 

He asked me to please dont phone him again, they dont want my kind of business!
