I'd already placed an order for one on Taobao.com when I heard about the $111 special.

My total cost including shipping is about $230. I think the kit was about $203

Here's the one I ordered.

It hasn't arrived yet.

I got the shipping payment made. Just waiting now.
Finished assembling the C4 this weekend so the garage has been reorganized and it's now ready for the 300cc kit project. Just waiting on the slow boat.......

It shipped! WOO HOO!
Now it's that slow boat... (chugga, chugga, chugga.....)

Yoycart has been pretty good to deal with so far. I may try them again.

I've tryied ordering, first they corrected the shipping cost (it was clear from the begining that this ítem doesn't weights 200 grams), and now I got this message:
"This one need about two month booking time, is it OK for you"
I'm about to cancel my order...

I have received this same email. I replied asking them what "booking time" means. No response so far.



Starting to smell really bad. Which is disappointing.

Yes, same question asked. Seems weird that 2LZ above has had his shipped. Perhaps they run out of stock. It's just wait and see as of now, I guess...

The shipping issue might be a function of which buying service you are using. I'm dealing with TaobaoTrends. They allow payment by credit card (no photo required) or PayPal. I chose the latter. So far the process has been flawless. My order is processed and the part ordered. Once they get the part they will contact me with the shipping info.

I've used them for many orders. Didn't see that as necessary for yoycart... wish I had thought to go with them.

Well, I asked, they cancelled my order.
So I'll wait for the refund and then try taobaotrends.

I need to get in line with this Taobaotrends thing. I have never used that service. Sounds like a winner and folks here have been using them a long time so there's a track record.

I've found their service to be excellent. After they receive all of your goods to their office, they'll unwrap and photograph everything if you wish.

Taobaotrends, yes.


Yoycart is looking pretty bad from my vantage.

Kit Arrived

I'm in shock....... Instead of the proverbial "slow boat", it must have been the Blown Pickle Fork from China.
I've never in my life received a part for a car or motorcycle that was packaged this nicely. It's like a jewelry display or something Also, each piece is individually boxed and shrink wrapped with plastic. It's almost like I don't want to disturb it. I may take my old parts, put them in it, put it on my garage shelf with a back-lighting. Sheesh...
Chonda, did yours come like this?
