| As long as china products are in the right hands it really is okay. If they are in the hands of those who only want them to sell them to make money than it is not a good thing. But if they are being represented by a legit company that knows what they're doing, definitely not in fingerboarding for money, and strive to support the scene, this is one of the best things they can do.
They can buy these cheap decks for however much they buy them for, even buy the whole package deal, sell them to people who don't want to spend a lot and just want to feel it out with an okay setup.
Although, the beginners should later on be formally introduced to the real scene, the real deck makers, the real companies.
Because honestly, this stuff is only doing good. Us seasoned fingerboarders know the good companies to support and everyone has their time to learn the same. It's not like china products are taking all of our hard earned and deserved money, because all it is doing is bringing more fingerboarders into the scene.
When someone buys a 4cfb or whatever it may be, they practice, learn, get better, sooner or later discover the scene, grab that digital camera and make a couple videos, talk to more people, get introduced to here and then they are in our hands and it is our job to point out the good companies that support fingerboarding. |

| I'm 100% with Forgiven, there is nothing wrong with china products, they barely take away from the fingerboarding scene. They're quite obviously not as high quality as the likes from Flatface, No Comply, ect. but they get begginers on the right foot and hyped to expand and learn. |

| I ordered 2 of those completes for my son as he is only 4 years old (as i am not ready for him to have a setup over tweenty dollars yet,lol.) also 2 sets of random trucks. I only got one as a complete and one set of the random trucks that was in jan.After about a dozen emails back and fourth and me sending him a copy of my order from ebay he said he would get the trucks wheels and tape out for deck that was supposed to be complete and the other set of trucks, that was about two or three weeks ago and still I have not seen anything,but who knows maybe it will show hopefully :?: |

| Oh ya that sux man, I was gonna say if ebay you could of course open a case, but I would try to contact him and just keep trying. I understand the kid is young and got school and other things, but if you are going to run a company you got to keep customers happy and send what they order or refund them if you cant.Hopefully it will all get worked out,and made right... |
