I bought the same one from banggood for $6, came missing one of the plastic nub, and this thing is very small, barely fit the tire of my universal T3, so when I lift the unicycle, it stucks and the stand have to be pulled out. But holding up the unicycle just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zody Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Hey guys I'm new here on the forums just wanted to make an account and say thanks for the thread. Was interested in getting a EU for personal transportation and ran across this post. All this seems way too good to be legit but what the hell, paid via PayPal and got the price on that 2 wheel EU down to $66 USD after the Wish discount so what do I have to lose. I'll let you guys know if or when it ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoe73 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I used to be tempted by this kind of thing that occasionally pops up on eBay, but these things never turn out to be ligit. Just because PayPal is insuring the transaction doesn't mean nobody is losing out. If the scam artists have figured out a way to make money on it and PayPal takes a loss, we all end up paying for it through the fees that PayPal charges. They take into account the amount they lose to fraud when they set up their pricing models. Keep in mind "if it seems too good to be true, it is" and just stay away!

An87ttype Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I ordered one of the Solowheel dual wheel for $81.65 after the extra discount. I think the scam is that they will ship it to the wrong address and it gets returned to China. You can reorder and it will miss ship again until the 90 days pass for you to make a claim to PayPal. I hope I'm wrong, but I think I may have just flushed 80 bucks. I will update my experience with this as well, but I would say don't order anything from here unless you are spending money that you are willing to loose. I will keep you posted...

Zody Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Actually... I was just about to dismiss your claim because "Why would they pay for shipping only to get it returned and lose shipping money and the refund?" but just before I did that I decided to do a bit of googling since I know nothing about Wish.com. So I did two things, first I googled the name of the seller on Wish.com for the dual wheel unicycle to see if anything pops up. And behold, "sunnygirl2k" has an Ebay store. 98% rating, with a bit of negative ratings and the entire store is all wigs and a few cheap chinese knock off accessories. Not one scooter or any electric motor items at all. In contrast, her Wish.com seller page has none of her 2000+ Ebay wig items, and only 4 items which are the scooters. So I'm like "Hmm.. a bit fishy but maybe she doesn't want to put them up on her Ebay page since they are not wigs.." Second, I thought about what you said and did a quick Wish.com search for a popular trendy item like "hoverboard". The second you type hoverboard into their search, you see a bunch of these scooters for under $100 and when you click on reviews they are all 1 star and people saying they DID ship their item but to the wrong address, and that even someone signed for it. Effectively "delivering" the item and money being sent to the seller. It seems in most cases people still got a refund, but they had to wait a long time and some did not even get their money back. It seems the other chinese sellers selling scooters at average prices $200+ have real reviews and even though orders take a while they actually do send them to the buyer. Needless to say after seeing this I noped the f out of Wish.com and cancelled my order. I am 99% sure any scooter priced at under $100 is running this scam, just by looking at their reviews. And if there are no reviews it means it's a fresh account. The scary part is, that they actually have addresses that are signing for and accepting the orders on your behalf, making it all that difficult for you to get the refund. Wish.com has a real problem in their hands and for a million-dollar startup, I am staying away like the plague. 13 hours ago, An87ttype said: I ordered one of the Solowheel dual wheel for $81.65 after the extra discount.
