Default Chinese websites offereing Yamaha atvs

Just wondering if anyone has had any experience buying off chinese websites offering Yamaha atv's such as this one http://www.eceoo.com/products/?Yamaha-ATV-s701_p1.html

Any experience would be appreciated as they are cheaper than here in australia

Well, I just went through the process of ordering 100 Raptor 350's. Pretty sure someone in China is wetting their pants thinking how they're gonna get 150k soon.

Forms of payment are Western Union or Bank of China.

Like Jaybee said, this is a scam. Look at all the other stuff they carry. Stay away as far as you can.

By the way, my apologies to:

if 100 Raptors show up at your door.

At the very least you could buy something small off of there site for like 20 bucks to see if they would actually send you it...

20 bucks? Small?

You must still be single. To us married guys, that's a weeks allowance.

You buy something for $20 and they'll take your CC number and buy themselves a new car.
