| Unfinished decks cost more than already finished decks? Seems legit. |

| Non-bearing wheels. The blanks are probably wooden series tech decks sanded and re-lacquered haha. |

| I almost feel he's just going for the shock factor when it comes to the price. they don't look china but I could be wrong since I'd imagine the price is what it costs to ship the deck so there's not much,if at all any money to be made. |

| The shipping is £1 to UK which seems fair. They look to perfect to be true though so I call china. They probably just buy the blank decks in bulk so they can sell them for a bag of chips.

| They're actually not china. I met the owner the other day at crossed fingers. His decks aren't the best, but they are fully usable. |
