[dcal]

I came across this website 'Alibaba'

 

go to this link and see what I'm talking about:http:

Is it safe to buy a bike this way?

[Thermophage]

fook me! Maybe we should buy 10 and make a tidy profit

[Zaskar09]

I'm considering it. . .

[dcal]

R7000 for a complete bike.

WOW!

[Thermophage]

I just sent off an email to get a final price on a Specialized Enduro...just to test the water.

Looked up the site ... http://www.alexa.com...s;1/alibaba.com

Seems legit for the most part...Suppose you just gotta watch the supplier...

So my theory is...even if you get NAILED with import duties you still save a bucketload

 

But...could be a bit of a gamble

[Zaskar09]

just check if their verified members. I know my brother-in-law imported a lot of those cheap quads from alibaba.com

[Thermophage]

Jeez...$4000 NEGOTIABLE for this!

But you have to buy a minimum of ten, and thats probably without shipping and customs. . . but still.

[Thermophage]

Meh...looked over the "minimum of 10" part

So, we just need another 9 ppl

And we get them to ship the bikes in pieces as "BIKE PARTS"...supposedly there is minimal customs duties on parts

[Zaskar09]

You do realise thats 4000 Japan Yen right? Thats like R400? I just saw it now when I looked at it again.

[Zaskar09]

If thats true I'll buy all ten of them!!!!!

[Thermophage]

lol...thats exactly what i wanted to say

[Zaskar09]

I sent the guy an email, but it has to be a mistake

[Zaskar09]

I'm also looking at a XT groupset for R2900, and the guy already replied. . .

Lets see how this goes.

[Thermophage]

if it is real i'd happily go halvies with u

[Zaskar09]

With the groupset or the cannondales?
