Recently I have been noticing an influx of very very cheap quads, like grizzly's for $4000 US :shock: . Wondering what was going on I emailed the people to try and find out what was going on. Basically they are all from portugal or spain, and they say the price includes shipping & handling. Now I am guessing that there is an import tax to pay, but it still just seems like a scam. One place is here: http://www.atvmotor-jets.com/

They say they are in portugal, and gave a phone number & address there. They will only take payment by wire transfer or money order, then they send me the quad via fedex freight. Im thinking...yeah right...I send you money, you dissapear. Does anyone have or know anyone that has any experience with this?

Yeah I seen the same thing on ATV trader online. I think it's a scam and would not think about trying something like that with someone who is 4000 miles around the world. If it sounds too good to be true then it probably is a scam.

Total scam. I've seen this with lots of different items. There is probably no penalty for them and if it doesn't work--so what -- they'll try again.
