If you Need a new one,,
Or
Want one to modify
So you can ride while you get ready to install it.
But you gain nothing
Replacing a stock tensioner
With a stock tensioner

I guess I should have posted my complete thought .....

Is this a good deal on a tensioner to send to Versy for modification ?

I'd talk to him and see what he says.
Sure beats pulling yours and being down while he mods it. If he's out of cores, maybe he would work a deal, fix that one up, ship it to you, and you return the old one, and he has a core.
Win win, shared costs?

If it's going to him, let him
Buy it and it ships to him.

I ordered one. It is not likely that I will need it any time soon but it will save time when I do need it. Versy can mod it for me or I can do it myself so I will have a quick replacement. An open and shut case, so to speak. Smiley

Fwiw,
I ordered one of the cam chain tensioners on May 12 and was charged for it. However, I have not received it yet , so I guess I have to chalk it up to experience :'(

I went to their web site and it shows that it was shipped?

I realize it is a long, long way to China but it could be coming by yak or maybe a camel. Smiley

Direct from China can take anywhere from a week to a month.  I've bought some small electronic gadgets from China.  One item, a smart watch, first went to a country in central Asia, went through customs there, and eventually made it to my address via USPS.  But an action camera I bought got here faster than most stuff from Amazon.

I have not received my tensioner and don't think there is much hope at this point.

They charged my credit card with some upward adjustment for "rate of exchange". Anyway, my card company gave me a refund.

I emailed the company 4 times with no reply. The web site is still there so they must still be fishing. It was a good deal but you know what they say.

I did a search of "is adotrade.top a scam" and looks like it is.
Classic case of if it looks too good to be true....

You're not alone in getting scammed. Any number of us have been as well. I sometimes copy and past the image to Google images, and if it's been lifted from some other site (which in this case, it was lifted from Amazon), I pass. Not a sure thing. But, reason to be suspicious.

DieselBob,

That image is certainly identical to Amazons' image.

Next time I will be more careful. The amount of money was so little that I fell for it. :'(
