dmethvin Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Looking at archive.org it seems like this site is pretty new, there is no history for it other than domain parking pages. The domain registration says it was updated March 8 this year and the admin is Patrick Khoe. It could be a legit site but with a selection that large they must be drop-shipping and not carrying any inventory. If they are really in Brisbane then @Neale Gray may know something about the business or Patrick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WakefulTraveller Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 I considered buying an IPS wheel from them, knowing full well that there was no record of anyone buying from them on these forums or on the internet for that matter. One thing that really turned me away from them is that they require payment by means of a wire transfer (or something like it) which is very risky for the customer (but less risky for the seller). Plus a lot of their content seems to be directly copied from http://www.electricunicycleonline.com/, a far more reputable site. I certainly wouldn't recommend buying from them, but there is the chance that you might actually receive a wheel of your choosing from them. There's also the chance that you won't receive anything. Or you might not get the exact thing that you wanted. Either way there's not much in the way of recourse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viti Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 www.electricunicycleonline.com is legit. I bought an IPS Zero 260 Wh in December 2015 from them. I got delivered an IPS Zero with 240 Wh only - and got a partial refund after _much discussion_ and an opening of a paypal dispute. There was an long thread about this seller on the forum. But the thread 'somehow vanished' completely! ... ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olle Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Hi, Just would like to warn others and say that this site (http://cheapunicycles.com/) indeed is a scam. A friend of mine tried to order an UC from them about a month ago. After he made the payment they stopped replying (and nothing has been delivered).
