Has anyone ever ordered equipment from Alibaba.com ?
Alibaba is a site where manufacturers sell their products and it so happens that many are selling the newest sticks!
They sell for extremely cheap but i was wondering if they are real? And if it is all just a scam?

It's one of those minimum order places from Asia..

Here's ''total one'' sticks but you need to buy atleast 100.

Everybody on that site claims to be a manufacturer for Bauer, Easton, etc. Yeah right. I've gotten quotes from "manufacturers" in the middle east that can supply Total ONE skates in any size (min. order 10 pairs) for $300-400 a pair. Wire transfers only.

You try persuading me that it's not a scam.

If your bag has wheels, you don't.

Not worth the risk at all

NHL teams could care less that you want a pair of brand new Warrior Luxe/Franchise custom thumb loop super custom digi toilet paper soft palm with double added reinforced custom Warrior logo backhand padding gloves or a 17 flex double kreps curve upside down toe hook stick from your fav player/team. -Bakes

Anyone notice that the graphite weave is not on the blanks?? Is that something that comes out after polish, I don't know. Everything adds up to not legit.
