    Re: The other DongFang

    MJH, I paid $1,100 and change for my 150cc mystery scooter. That included shipping from CA to my door in AZ.

    MJH - while we're on the subject of trade and communications. The FCC is the same agency that, years ago broke up the ATT monopoly by letting them establish the baby bells. And, it is the same agency...

    MJH - you touched on an interesting subject - "truth in advertising". The FCC regulates advertising on the Internet. Many companies are playing fast and loose with the rules. I even wrote a letter to...

    MJH - I figured as much. After Ralph Nader many years ago was speaking to anyone who would listen about the unsafe crap Detroit was pushing out the doors, a Lemon Law surfaced. In fact, I think he...

    Re: Dongfang

    MJH - Great web site re Lemon Laws. Could definitely come handy. The scooter is what is is - cheaply made at a reasonable price. However, I'm more pissed off at the distributor in CA. I don't know...

    Re: The other DongFang

    MJH - I think the electrical/fuse system is hosed up. The gas seal inside the bulbs (Chinese installed) gets a leak and the bulb turns silver/cloudy. I think I'm good to go now. Thanks.

    Re: Dongfang

    MJH - Thanks for that info. I guess I never knew they were illegal, and, if so, how were they able to do business here in the states? Jeez, it's confusing enough with those peeps over there.

    Culcune,

    Thanks for that info. I figured the attorney general's office was the place to start. I don't know how long these goof balls have been in business, but, I'm surprised they still are. They...
