Hi everyone! Has anyone bought here or know this website? I've seen it on Facebook, it has some interesting items, but I don't know if it's real or just a fake.
Regards
Luis

It is not a parts website. They just scammers. As are many many pages on face book.

It's a scam. 99% of these originate from Cameroon.

 

 

Here's the page transparency information. The people who manage it are all in Cameroon. It's also changed names many times when the scam needs to change.

Good spot and I bet the people that bought puppies never got them!

If you do a google image search you’ll often find the original source of the photos. In this case it was on an auction website in Japan last year

These guys are only trying to fool some unwary person who falls into the trap. You pay, and the items will never arrive at your house.
Thanks again for your opinions.
