Does this eBay deal look legit? TopTen Headgear $40+ savings

[ASEGSEA]

Totiro-USA offers a pair of Avant-guarde headsets for $196 (July-15 15% discount code added) + $30 shipping = $226.

Not bad for head guards that will last you forever. forever/$226 = decent price in the long haul.

HOWEVER, eBay seller DrFloyd04 is selling (TopTen Olympic Head gear for $80 each. Even with that and shipping it's only $180ish.

$40 is a pretty good savings. If it's an authentic TopTen then I'm all over it. I sent an email to the doc requesting him to verify the equipment.

Anyone know anything about this guy or whether the material can't be profited from such a low price?

Well, he's a top rated seller with almost 100% feedback. If he and his items were a sham then I think it would be reflected in his rating. I hope that they're legit and you get a helluva lot of good use from them.

 

[ASEGSEA]

Yeah, some other guy bought the same headgear and gave A++++ reviews.

Still, better safe than sorry. ANd there are scammers with impeccable review ratings. Look at all those super-cheap SLR cameras.

 

[MMAMathMustDie]

True. However, his detailed ratings are likewise very high. I've got a good feeling about the seller. I mean, he posted a pic of his dog as his avatar -- he can't be more than half-bad, lol.

 

[ASEGSEA]

Haha, why is it dogs make everything better?

Bum without dog = no money given
Bum WITH dog = TONS OF MONEY given to him

I may just take the plunge. I'll email Totiro and see if they'll match the price. If not, then you'll see a review on the gear and his name soon.

well even if so its fake who needs head bands anyway just gets in your way and you dont fight with it

 

[ASEGSEA]

Headbands? I'm not jazzercising.

 

[Gonzaginator]

Never heard of fake boxing gear.

 

[ASEGSEA]

Agreed, but you never know with eBayer's.

 

[ASEGSEA]

BTW, how are you Top Ten gloves holding up? That review is one of the primary reasons I'm taking the plunge on TopTen.

I've had the 10 oz for over half a year now and i use them for sparring. They look almost brand new but i always make sure not to hit the bag or the mitts with them because those Top Tens are specifically for sparring and sparring only.
