Hi guys,

I'd like to ask from a little help and I think the canadian users will help. Or anybody else!

Well, here in Brazil theres a "ebay kinda thing" called "Mercado Livre" - "Open Market", in english. (www.mercadolivre.com.br).
The thing is that there's a guy who says he's living in Canada an he's selling an Boss Kit with a PH-3, DD-6, OD-3 and a BCB-30 case. He's asking for R$ 489,00 which means something like USD 250. Here in Brazil only a PH-3, for example, would cost at least USD 180.

Also, I should say that in this "ebay kinda thing" site from Brazil are some people that try to "fool" other people (don't know how to say it in english, sorry).

So, I'd like to know if anybody knows if is this kit real.

Thanks!

In english we say "rip people off". I can't get much from your link as I don't read spanish. Are these new pedals or used?

I couldnt find it through that site, but Im just wondering why would someone from canada post in a place thats for brazil only. I would think that he would post it on ebay instead?
I wouldnt go for it if it was the other way around

or we say "scam" in english too

You could sell those pedals for that price on craigslist out here no problem, no fees, no shipping. It doesn't really make sense.

The guy is brazilian and he's living on Canada. The pedals are new. He's tryin' to sell in Brazil so he can get some extra money. He said he has 5 kits. Well, anyway, thanks for the tips!
