Hi,

For me this is fraud, without any doubt. No adress, stolen pictures.

Regards

Markus

I (of course) assumed it, there is no address, a bit stupid price as a new and a discount ....
I wonder how to report them for fraud?

I checked their "about us" link....

"Our mission is to empower females globally to be confident in themselves and be who they want to be. We is a bold, straight talking and forward thinking fashion brand inspired by real life that aims to do exactly that. Everything we create is informed by our customer along with global influences like social media, street style, and popular culture, creating a destination that delivers and encompasses everything it means to be a girl on the go in the world today."

"We is a bold...." ok, there's a big clue about moronic low-intelligence, and registered to "John Brown", LOL, guess his cousin from hillbilly county must be John Smith.

But look at this item link....

https://www.clusterstore.top/mrklin-spur-0-e6612920-dampflok-mit-tender-marklin-p-3855.html

I mean it's still got the original sellers background - how STUPID is that?

I've emailed Lucamarkl to warn them about the scam on their good name

Unbelievable, but someone, (hopefully not on this forum) will fall for it

And that wasn't the only one with that sticker in the background.

Everything, no matter age, type, gauge, or any other variable seems to have an 'old price' of between $140 and $150. Even a mega start set that appears to be complete (i didn't click into the item to get further details).

What amazes me, the extend of this website and its all fake, suppose the untrained eye thinks, this must be ok there is so much stuff for sale it has to be for real.
I also like the facebook logo: when you click on it you suppose to get to their site but all it is its facebook, when searching the name on facebook you get another name.
the whole pages are copied from different sites of the world. like Germany and Netherlands.

Its a mega-script. I clicked on the "Next set of 5 pages" on the model railroad items, and it went to 81 pages. Much more than many serious model railroad sellers web-shops!
I think the pages are generated automatically when a visitor browses the shop. Model railroad is already a niche-product, but these guys sell anything, so imagine falling in here looking for something more mainstream...
Looks like they want to be the new Amazon.
-And yes; Very funny how all "old prices" are all around 150,-.

The contact email of the site is linked to more than 200 other sites...
Sounds like a "bunisness-model", but no the kind of model that actually SELLS products...

Additional info on the contact-email;

Smme of the listed sites opens webpages similiar to the one mentioned by the OP.

Final edit from me on this topic; Slot racing forums have similar threads about this group of websites. Its systematic scamming...
