GLuvsMtb Posted April 6, 2014 Share They admitted to selling a fake to another customer. Devi phoned him and asked him whether he knew it was fake (in front of them). Answer: NOby now they would have attempted to destroy all previous sales records to try and prevent SAPS from scrutinizing every high end bike sale done in the last 24 months.

GoLefty!! Posted April 6, 2014 Share Saw dumb & dumber on telly earlier. Hoping that ASG/Pinarello will take action and shut them down. This is not limited to bicycles, friend bought a "grey" motorbike and had endless hassles. Same for motor spares, quote on original and supply pirate. Doesn't really solve anything as the real problem is the continuous supply of the "fake" frames and components. Pinarello can nail the shop for brand copyright infringement, put them out of business but there's probably 10 more shops out there doing the same thing. Making an example of one is a deterrent but the problem real problem lies with the endless supply of people who will knowingly buy a fake because its a cheap way to look a certain part.

BigDL Posted April 6, 2014 Share What a *** place to find yourself in. I bet these boys never started their business intending to rip people off. Probably sitting wondering how they started on the slippery slope from cutting a few corners to completely losing their integrity and cashing in on the trust that was placed in them. ewep 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
