Nope, that has all the red flags of a scam website. ---

Yep that’s one of the clearest signs. Another is that it’s supposedly a Russian website but that there’s no Russian yoyos on there and simply searching for “Shoplazza + Scam” seals the deal in terms of being a scam :wink: ---

I can’t even go to that link without intentionally bypassing security settings I have setup on my network and devices. I would say that’s enough to not consider such a site but if it looks to good to be true it is. ---

I would say from a simple logical point of view, but it’s hard enough to get one of those yo-yos especially in that color way. This site says it has 11 in stock. That would be like saying you have a half a dozen levi peaks, Mint in box for $150 each… L O L O LOL! Hey… I got a bright idea…. it happens occasionally.\> Why not ask Jake what he thinks about this situation? Seems reasonable to figure that he’d be an excellent source of separating fact from fantasy when it concerns his yo-yos. ---

i saw couple of these sites a good while ago pop up when searching for some out of stock yoyos and they would give a discount, the kind that’d put you on the fence but ultimately its too good to be true. 100% scam. check trust scores and google their rep and itkk rise enough flags to confirm your suspicion. good deals can come every once in a while but from a known source and site, not an entire site of unheard of retailers. ---

I got scammed from a website looked just like that. Week after I bought the yoyo that never came they charged my credit card $3000 bucks.lol. Straight up. admittedly it was an a-rt throw, a sparrow to be exact, from some “discountshop” something or another , looked just like that website ---
