I emails them back asking where the boats are from and go this....

Dear Mr. Richardson,

The boat are imported from US. The taxes are paid including custom tax.*
The price from our website includes everything.

Thank you

Still sounds like a scam. No contact address on the website.

The site's exactly the same as all the .co.cc sites they were running. They haven't even bothered changing the web page template FFS!

Definatly a scam!!! Its exactly the same as the craft bay website that tried to scam me! Same adverts, same theme, it just has a different name. most of the boats are in america. Stay away....far away!
