Proceed with caution !!

 

I would love this to be legit but I couldn't find anything which gave me confidence that it was ok. 

 

Happy to be be proved wrong as I would love a Schuberth for these prices.

 

Old adage - if it sounds too good to be true it probably is.

Agreed, credit card info is passed on an unencrypted page, good sign of a dodgy site. Never pass any details on an unsecured site, erm like this one.......

Here's their twitter page: https://twitter.com/kenmayahonpo

 

Notice the link to the current URL on the left hand side - seems their polishing services have not been in demand since Feb 2017.
