Too good to be true (scam)?

[pep]

Came across this link -A&B Motorcycle (http://e-motorcycleshop.com/atv.htm) Prices seem too good to be true - anybody in the Chicago area that can verify/validate shop?

wow, them are really good prices,,, if they arent true it could be called as false advertisement... but the could be before setup fees and tax and title.

I would say that is a scam to get you in their shop. I gaurentee you'l end up spending over 5800

those prices are after they have been wrecked:blah: :devil:

[pep]

They indicate that the following set -up, licensing, fees, etc are INCLUDED in the price...

Retail Price:
The retail prices include all on-the-road charges. These charges include manufacturer's delivery, pre-delivery inspection, number plate, 12 months road fund license, first registration fee and fuel.



The Warranty:

On-Road Motorcycles and scooters:
A 2-year unlimited mileage warranty, excluding commercial use.

You know how the saying goes:
If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Sounds as if it applies here, but who knows? I would check them out thoroughly. (Doing it over the Internet, even here, may not be your best bet of doing that however) Try to get a number. That is one hell of a deal.

I cannot see how they can sell them that low. At that price with those "extras" it seems they are walking right on that line that divides profit from loss.

Definitely check it out.

i think its deffinetly a scam

seems like a scam.....but you never know...


Over the weekend there was a glitch with a site to get plane tickets....Over 1000 ppl got round trip tickets for $1.98 yes one dollar and 98 cents! I think it was to pretty much anywhere. And yes they are being honored....and that would seem to good to be true, but it was infact true lol

One guy got 10 round trip tickets from the east coast to alaska, for like 50 bucks. lol. That really sucks for the airline.

[250xridamatt]

Man, this place is like 20 minutes from my brothers college, may have to pay a visit and check this place out.... I'll just need to read all the stupid fine print they have on their website.

it must not come with a frame or engine or maybe you put it together and everything comes in a box. that would be fun

[dirtriderex]

maybe they are stolen?lol

[250xridamatt]

I sent them an email, with a couple good questions in it. I'll let you guys know what i find out. It says they are factory direct, so my guess is that you buy it right in the crate. Thats my best guess. I can see how that would take the price down a ton, but i still dont see how they sell them this cheap, unless they move like 100 units a day or something.

Yes it is a SCAM. It dont take long to figure it out either. Didnt anyone read any of this.

Special Note:
WE DO NOT ACCEPT PHONE OR FAX ORDERS. PLEASE PLACE ALL YOUR ORDERS ONLINE. Thank you!

Hours are 8-5 Sunday.

Also Honda or Yamaha dont show them as a dealer either. They have a business profile on Anywho.com though, so they are pretty slick.

Also in their FAQ's, money order/cashiers checks is all they except for payment. Maybe it's because if they accepted credit cards they would have to be verified as a business and you could dispute your charges to your card if they ripped you off. I call B.S. on this company.
