Was just checking around before I ordered a focus jarifa offroad and found this place. Has anyone used this seller before?

£700 cheaper for the bike I want:

Electric Bikes : Buy Cheap Electric Bikes|Electric Bicycles from China Bicycles manufacturer

I thought these bikes were made in germany, why are they selling them cheaper from china?

My mistake, its a bulk supplier. Need to delete this thread sorry, can't find the delete option in the edit post.

Yep you just put your second post as I was about to put, look at the very bottom, they sell other things too, which could take some explaining if they got your order wrong.!!!

Between wholesale fancy dress & Cheap bicycles, er, no thank you, I'm past that now.

Something's wrong. Most of those bikes are made in the EU. I can't see how a Chinese seller could sell them from China at those prices.

Be careful....not suggesting these are scams but there is a scam from China which applies to many products....the advertiser advertises super products at very cheap prices....you do the deal,give your credit card,payment is taken,then the advertiser sends a heap of junk that is bike shaped,the rubbish is received by you,but under the credit card rules you have to return the rubbish to China to execute your chargeback,this is not economic to do,so you lose the money.
If it is so cheap it is often a scam.
Be careful!!!

I would agree with Martin. It is so easy for anybody to set up a website nowadays and make fake ones using anybody's name to register. Might be a legit site that givesyou a bike of sorts but.... (At best) but could well be a complete scam. NMany professional looking websites are regsitered daily / weekly around Christmas time especially for products such as Abercrombie and Fitch etc. Vwry convincing. I usually check whois.com to fimd out a bit more, especially if registered in unexpected countries. Even found a site of sorts somebody had used my niece's details somehow to register a scam with.. Not good and her studying law at the time!

Sme chappy just used a basic webdesign site (godaddy) to make the website??? Another clue is in payment area whether it says httpS <note the S> .. if not then deffo do not use.

Also that address gives some warning signs...room 302,Unit 2,Building 3.....is probably an accomodation address,maybe one guy and girl in cheap rented offices in some vast office building....on my China visits I see such buildings everywhere,with hundreds of small companies listed in the reception....obviously not all are scams but an ebike builder usually has a factory type address like ....3rd Avenue,Economic Development zone,Zhuhai.
