I think it is funny how it has a shopping cart.

It's like " hmm..I think I'll buy one Mladin Replica, a ZX-10R, and a pair of Ducatis, thanks"

 First off there are no contact phone numbers

You pay by "Bank Transfer"  :cookoo:

no real bike pics...

fake buyers with "feedback"  :icon_mrgreen: Hehe.. this aint eBay

Also it looks like the site they have for shipping is a fake Co. as well (no contact)
Prolly registered to the same person (too lazy to look)

ITS A SCAM !! NO DOUBT

It also says (takes upto 4-10 days or so for transfer to clear) HAHAH!


The shipping calc is a sweet touch though  :thumb: Pretty good deal on shipping to Afghanistan  :2guns:
