Bike shop SCAM

Pienar Bike Shop

DO NOT BUY from this place. I answered an ad for a bike at a specified price + shipping. I figured Pay Pal was the safest way to pay & they sent the money to the shop account. Then weeks later the shop sends an email that there are taxes to pay and the customer has to pay them before shipping. We're not talking about a small amount here. I say NO, I paid the advertised price, send the bike. I get no where & after 3-4 emails from them on the same issue I tell PayPal they're a scam. But the only thing PayPal says they can do is request a refund.

BTY this is not the first time I have told PayPal a compy has not delivered & was told they can only "request"

So,in the end PayPal may not be safe. And as for Pienar Bike Shop, if you buy from them you're taking a chance
