    Hey,

    Dunno if this has been covered before but i was googling a Trek madone 6.9 pro,2009 edition in the team astana colours(love it) and was led to a number of sites that just have listings of a number of bikes for incredibly cheap prices.

    They appear on sites like adverts.ie and all of those and look like this http://www.bulawayo24.com/index-id-classified-catId-sports-catSub-Cycling-itemId-951.html and seem to be linked into companies like www.raymobileltd.9hz.com. and www.danpedmarkets.co.cc . The price quoted for the madone was $1500 including delivery which sounds way too good to be true!

    Id never entertain an offer so good without suspiscion but im blinded by getting the dream bike for a fraction of the price!

    Has anyone ever bought from one of these or know of anyone who has??

    cheers!

    Never let your heart rule your head......

    My advice:


    Run.
    Run fast.
    In the other direction.
    Dont look back.......ever.....!

    If you are ever unsure about a website that you want to buy from google the name of the website + review
    i.e boards.ie reviews

    has always steered me in the right direction, check out ebayoyo.com for example, smashing prices for top quality brand name FAKES
