Popular Post StuartL Posted August 13, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 13, 2020 @JimO: Admist the KS geo-locking scandal it may be worth posting the source and/or serial number of the S18. S18s from China (e.g. AliExpress) with a P in the serial number have become much less desireable for the moment. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimO Posted August 14, 2020 Author Share Posted August 14, 2020 StuartL, There is no P in the serial number of my S18. Are you aware that all of these machines come China? My machine did not come from AliExpress. Please do the euc world a service and post links the source of your information with more details of your concerns. It would help us all. I’m guessing you are a concerned citizen, not an actual buyer of an S18. If you are in fact a buyer, please post your intentions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here the post from the Kingsong representative: I also summarized this and pinned in the Kingsong subforum Unfortionatelly i don't know if they have similar announcement on their facebook site. I've just seen once a link/report that they have some specific warnings for some chinese online resellers/aliexpress? 5 hours ago, JimO said: I’m guessing you are a concerned citizen, not an actual buyer of an S18. There are many people by now concerned, afraid and/or upset by this. Seems used wheel sales will have potential to get "disturbed" by this, especially as this policy seems to be not widely known. 6 hours ago, JimO said: If you are in fact a buyer, please post your intentions. Unfortionately me neither, but i hope the explanation/links are helpful to understand this a bit. Sorry for disturbing your topic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuartL Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 6 hours ago, JimO said: There is no P in the serial number of my S18. Perfect. The used market for KingSong wheels has got very complicated with KingSong geolocking Chinese-market wheels used elsewhere in the world. 6 hours ago, JimO said: Are you aware that all of these machines come China? My machine did not come from AliExpress. Yes. See the other threads on this topic. Many 'global' sellers (including some on AliExpress, Banggood, Blackdealday, etc) are buying Chinese market wheels and selling them internationally at a perceived lower cost. KingSong's app is locking these wheels rendering them completely unusable. There are a significant number of potential buyers (myself included) who are considering boycotting the brand entirely but it's made the used market complex because the buyer needs to feel confident that they're not buying a wheel that KingSong will later lock.

daaavid Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Hey @JimO, where in Wisconsin are you located? I'd be interested in picking this up if you're close by Milwaukee (53202) and still have the wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimO Posted August 16, 2020 Author Share Posted August 16, 2020 In Pewaukee, about 18 miles west of Milwaukee. Have several interested, but haven’t had someone commit with a deposit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daaavid Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Oh great, that's very close. I'd be down to meet up later tonight or sometime tomorrow and purchase the wheel if that works for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daaavid Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 I can meet in Milwaukee, Pewaukee, or somewhere in the middle. My email address is david.j.c.johnson@gmail.com if you want to send the meetup specifics there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
