Ukraine eBay sellers?

[ceolwulf]

A few sellers from Ukraine that consistently have high-end goods at prices ranging from good to unbelievable. Instinct is to say they're reselling fakes. Feedback is good though. Any insight?

I purchased really great Dura Ace deals a couple years back from the Ukraine. All legit in original packages. YMMV - I don't recall who I dealt with but they were responsive to my email and shipped fast.

if your referring to the person selling all the assos socks and stuff,yeah they're all knockoffs I assume,i got 4 pair of assos shoe cover for like $25 and they are not genuine but worth what I paid.won't buy anything else though.

I see a lot of NOS Campy stuff from there. Wonder how that comes about?

I bought NOS DA stuff from one seller in the Ukraine. He has a shop there and this was extra stock. Legitimate.

Just to start... have you noticed how volatile is the political situation in that country??? Always wondered if people actually buy to those guys, would suck too the colnago you bought (hypothetical example) over a russian tank in one of those web news sites pictures.

I was thinking mainly of carbon parts and also carbon frames.

The political situation is worrying yes. The rule of law is not what it should be. So people can get away with non-legitimate business easily. That at least is a possibility.

Bought an SMP Forma from a gentleman in Ukraine a few months ago. New, original box at half the MSRP. My particular experience was pleasant and hassle free.

There is also a suspicion that many bikes stolen across Europe end up in that part of the world...

One of those so called Ukraine sellers was actually in Brooklyn. Ebay, it gets cuter every day.

Must be the guy I bought from as well. Said in the US in that listing but some said in the Ukraine. I wasn't in a hurry so I just waited for the package and it came from Brooklyn.
