Watch out for Alibaba, lots of crooks (ask me how I know). No reliable feedback like Ebay.
However that dealer is probably legit as that was going rate last time I was in ShenZhen. What they don't tell you up front is it costs about 3x more to ship than cost of engine. I found it better to just wheel and deal with middlemen like BGF, Zoom, etc.

A couple? Try only $1050, doesn't cover shipping and import fees though.
Just goes to show how much money is being made from these kits. Cheapest I've seen is BGF selling them with a buy it now of $114 with free shipping, you average $20 for shiping and you could make around $70 per kit just flipping them.

Not likely. IMO Rick Shi and the gang make a fraction of that judging by estimates I got for container charge, broker fees, etc. and don't forget cross country freight.

Yes, they're legit. Think of them as a craigslist for import/exporting wholesale items. They advertise on ABC during the show 'Shark Tank.' The prices are cheap, but you usually have to buy them in bulk.
