Skeptical !: $450 + Free ship for a Becker in Sways' Shop

Anyone look into the integrity of this deal?

Smells fishy to me… no pun intended.

“Swaylock’s Surfshop is an online marketplace where anyone can buy and sell surfcraft and surf lifestyle merchandise in a trusted enviroment

Where the hell is “oh , nw United States” ?

Seller’s location…

Howzit Pete, I would assume that nw would be Oregon or Washington state but the oh has me confused since that would mean Ohio. Aloha,Kokua

I hope it’s real! Because according to the add, they are also selling bird houses. Now there’s something I can always use more of.

Read the ad carefully. It is for a company called “Surface Surfboards” Google them its a softop board company.

I don’t think they are selling Becker boards for $450. The english grammar is a little lacking as well.

 "Surface Surfboards" 



I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH "SURFACE SURFBOARDS"! 

“Available in fiberglass or epoxy.”

I really want to see the solid epoxy, no fiberglass,  surfboard that people are talking about.

“Surf-Ace” surfboards and you’ll be ripping. Quite a ring to it.

I’d be skeptical too, general rule of thumb is if it looks too good to be true it probably is.

you may note that other then the picture it does’nt mension andy brand names only that is says they sell all sorts of boards for cheap. I would bet that they have just picked the first picture of a board thay could find.

its says to contact … I looked up www.breathru.com and it came up with an add for “naughty married girls” it didn’t say if shipping was included though.

Throw in a free bird house and I’m sold.

just noticed thay are also selling tony hawk, tony’s people have yet to comment.

It’s definitely a con.

I bought Tony Hawk last month on ebay!

I got the paperwork straight away but my Tony hasn’t actually arrived yet; must give them a call.

carehelp tried to buy my board from swaybay “i will take 5 of your items I am in the UK”. more likely Lagos.

mike- delete that ad?

Still probably a scam but “birdhouse” IS an acutal skateboard brand (Tony Hawk’s): www.birdhouseskateboards.com

Ya man i think you are right about the location. I live on the Olympic peninsula in WA state, and it looks like a “Becker” surfboard. Uh… heard of them being from around these parts but never seen one or anything.

However if you are from the area, or even if you’re not and you are not hooked on a name brand of any sort, I’d highly recommend http://www.ewaliko.com/. His boards are nice! Fun website too.

I think becker must have worked out some type of distribution. why bother purchasing a becker from them when you can but one directly off the rack for $345?

off the rack in the Becker shop for for $345? Maybe a beat shortboard for a little less. You won’t even touch a used Becker for that much.

becker was selling brand new boards for $345 for boards off the rack. there were flyers sent out. maybe you missed it. used beckers all day long for less.
