MikeCottTrials Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 that site looks a tad dodgy. I'm not saying its a scam site but it just doesn't look all there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoobert Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 Hey , I bought a load of stuff off of this shop .I bought my ZOO LYNX frame , forks, BB , brake booster ,cranks ,bashplate and sprockets .The guy that runs the shop is a really genuine, nice guy .In my experience the communication throughout was excellent. Due to the exchange rate at the time my LYNX frame worked out at around £70 brand new Obviously since the shop is in Canada it only makes sence to buy a decent amount of parts due to the minimum postage fee for shipping to the UK . So it wouldn't be much use if you just wanted a headset for example.Delivery wize the frame and parts were well packaged so made the journey from Canada safe and sound Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TROYston Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 Too cheap to be true?Echo urban forks for 15 quid? I think it might be a scam, any links apart from product links do not work or have no more information.More than likely a scam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigAl Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 May have to replace my 05 pitbull with a new one.Anyone else bought anything off this site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoobert Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 I payed using paypal, to order you've got to put the parts you want in a list in an email and the guy will tell you what total and postage will be , the only reason I bought stuff from Canada (I was slightly skeptical) was because of the crazy low prices , but to benefit from the lower prices you need to buy a deesent amount for example .08 ZHI riserbar, I was going to buy them but there is a minimum shipping cost of around 35 CAD so on a set of bars that are only 12 CAD it wasn't really realistic for me to buy them . But as far as buying bulk goes , I got the stuff for my ZOO LYNX build at a fraction of the price (even with postage) of buying stuff from the UK, So if you're only needing small parts it might be smart to buy stuff with your mates so that there's a big enough order to justify the minimum postage cost.The postage for my frame, forks and everything I mentioned in my first message was about £70 but since I ordered alot and the prices were a fraction of the price over here, even with £70 postage I still saved a load on my build Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Endohopper Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 This site offers the legendary Echo Pure 2004 ! VERY tempting . As to the suspiciously low prices - maybe sheer geographical proximity of Canada to China ( manufacturer ) ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
