Smart Deals now sells the 250 Tao Tao the word Tao means Happy In China for $1100.00 + $550.00 for shipping & the chain keeps falling off . why ?

The way the pivot is designed, in other words when no one is on the bike the chain is loose, too loose and it can come off, but when someone is putting weight the chain tightens up, the front and rear sprockets wear fast because of the cheap design. There is an automatic chain idler tensioner for this flaw, I made and mounted mine and replaced both sprockets and new chain, I hope this helps

The chain is not aligned. You need to buy a chain alignment tool. Also make sure the chain isn't too tight - should be at least an inch of play on the chain

I just got my brother to remind me of that site's name and was getting ready to send you it's name. I've gotten stuff from them before. Their merchandise is inexpensive. All it takes is patience. They ship from China.

The shipping weight refers to the box and box size that it is shipped in, not the actual weight of the item, meaning that items shipped in that box, at that box size can weigh no more than 55 lbs.I wouldn't worry about it. I have tried to find a cheaper product and outside of ordering from China this is the best deal available. I will be ordering over $100k worth this year and the only way I can get a better deal is to go straight to the manufacturer.

Probably a company in China or Taiwan. A domestic manufacturer couldn't build and sell them for such low prices. e.g. I don't know....

I think it is just a case of Logitech trying to gouge the consumer. Their manufacturing costs did not increase anywhere close to that amount. I manufacture many products in china (these are made on Doungguan) and they are just trying to make a better profit to pay for their acquisition of Lifesize communications (for which they over paid) to explain to wall street. Don't accept it. Buy a closeout receiver and a nice pair of speakers for about the same price until they realize their mistake and lower their retail prices back down to the $270 level which still gives them a good profit and a reasonable valuue for the consumer.

Notice how Amazon has eight different UPCs? No manufacturer makes 8 different boxes for the same item. My friend was in China for the Canton show last year and was quoted a knockoff for about $10. At $50, that means your fly by night ebay seller (who is no longer selling on Ebay, by the way) has it marked up 400%. I don't mind fake $500 hand bags for $50 because I'd never buy a real one in my lifetime. But whe the difference is only $30-$40, I would pay more for the real deal. If you can get two years of use out of a fake one, though, I would say you got your money's worth. Let us know...

I don't remember, but shipping was not too expensive. Net, center strap and shipping all-in was about $190.

I missed out on it on Woot, which killed me! It's funny how this seller (Shoptronics) is currently selling it so cheap ($23.97), but charging $24.97 to ship it. Granted, it's still cheaper than it is in most places, but it's hard to accept a shipping charge so high, LOL, regardless of how cheap the item really is. If they sold it for $49 with free shipping it would appear to be a great deal. Shot logic, I know, but alot of people get miffed at a ridiculous shipping charge, regardless of how it still ends up being cheaper than everywhere else.Amazon.com is selling it for $52.97 w/free shipping, so Shoptronics is still cheaper.November 2008.

Hi, Yes we can it would cost roughly $12,00 for shipping depending on where you are in Thailand to arrange payment please provide us with your email address you need to replace the "@" sign with the word at.

Well honestly, the item itself costs a little over a dollar... shipping is expensive because it's shipping from Asia. If you want to buy in bulk and maybe in exchange pay less for shipping, you should contact the seller and work out a deal personally. That's what I usually do!

Thanks for your interest, This item is sold by an independent seller on Amazon and is not available for shipping to China at this point. You can read about the seller's shipping policies here:

I believe it was made in Taiwan for an American Co that sells after market parts. After market parts are made to replace much more expensive parts made by the auto companies. I paid around 60.00 including shipping for what my local dealer was asking 450.00 for. I was happy with the quality and fit.

The price seems to fluctuate - I ordered it on 10/07/13 for $66.24 and received it a few days later. But about a day after I ordered it, it went to $129.99. Maybe just keep checking back - ? It's a very high quality item but I don't think I would buy it for $129.99.

No I purchased it through Amazon. I would have bought it for $50 if the Chinese factory is reliable since this product does not worth more than

This is a Chinese product copy with associated quality and QC. Why can Amazon itself not deal with this? Is there not a specific policy for this be Amazon? Problem is more likely the charger. Min is working fine.

I believe someone is selling them on eBay right now for about $25.Alibaba also has a number of suppliers for what they claim is the same item, however they are a wholesale link to China and mostly require a purchase of large quantities. (10 was the smallest I noticed, and one guy said he could deliver up to 90 million [90,000,000] per year.) Good luck.
