This website (KWS) sounds too good to be true.
Anyone had a look and got any comments.
Sounds like all you have to do is buy thier book for $59 and you get a list of kitesurfing wholesalers where you can purchase gear ludicrusly cheap!

If you are buying kites at wholesale prices i would have though you would have to buy alot of them (economy of scale) or at least have an ongoing agreement with them to buy alot of kites.

My motto is..."if It sounds too good to be true, It is!".

Gut instincts are there for a reason.

Go on, do it!
What's the worse thing that can happen?

Btw, good luck trying to track missing $ through western union... (can you spell goneski)

Many marketing ploys try to get you to act through either fear or greed.
Guess which one these guys are using?

The Alibaba scam is exactly what it seems. Too good to be true. They do this with all sorts of expensive hobby item. You send someone half what it normally costs and get nothing in return. People dn't normally post their experience as they just feel stupid and want to forget the whole thing.

You give money and get no satisfaction...why bother..

I tell my staff(when they ask why we don't take cheques as payment) ... "better to loose the sale and keep the goods than to have a bounced cheque (no money)and lost goods too!

If i was a shop owner I'd drop any brand that was availiable direct to the public.
People will turn up at your shop expecting to demo gear only to buy it elsewhere, screw that.

Why should the shops just be a display cabinet for the wholesaler?
