Lorpot Liebherr Crane - Marked as Scam/Deleted a Week or Two Ago?

CrawlB4uBall on 28/12/2022 - 11:36

Does anyone remember the deleted deal on the lego like Liebherr crane a few fews ago? ~$89.95USD?? Link below (by no means am I encouraging people to purchase through this website, so buyer beware)

https://www.lorpot.com/products/v2-liebherr-ltm-11200-mammoe…

I was one of those "suckers" that purchased before doing any due diligence but thought I'd see what happens. If it was too good to be true, then I'd do a fraud claim via the bank.

Anyway, I received shipping details today and it seems to be real, backed up by multiple 3rd party shipping trackers.

I'll keep everyone up to date with the shipment and goods received.

    Enjoy your foreign coin momento (common scam item sent).

    Either that or it’s just a super cheap fake product replica.

    The page even says it is not Lego, so my guess you will get fake Legos that you can buy at Aliexpress and other websites.

    This is not an Original Lego Technic model but is compatible with Lego Technic Building blocks.

      Yeah I understood that prior to purchasing.

    Don't get your hopes up bro.
    I did the same thing for one of the scam sites that popped up that accepted PayPal and they sent me a pair of socks 😂 I still wear/use them! But PayPal was quick to refund me.
    So I guess you might get free socks!

      Who doesn't like a nice pair of socks though? How thoughtful of those scammers 😂

    that model exists on aliexpress but is US$400+ https://www.aliexpress.com/w/wholesale-ltm-11200.html

    maybe they will send a cheaper version? https://www.aliexpress.com/w/wholesale-mobile-crane.html

      Either the original or the cheaper yellow version would be considered a win IMO. The yellow would match my certified Lego model.

      But as others have stated above, it's very likely to be a scam but I'm reserving my disappointment until the package arrives.

    Any luck with your shipment?

    • CrawlB4uBall on 17/01/2023 - 08:13

      Still on it's way according to the tracking. Lost in the China Post/Aus Post tracking void when they change countries it seems.

      The last ping the package was sent to an international sorting facility on the 26th December.

    FYI the parcel still hasn't arrive but just cleared a sorting centre and awaiting international departure from Jinan EMS China. In transit for over 40 days already sheesshh

    Bump How are you going with this?

    I also am one of the suckers. unfortunately the tracking number(s? Its unclear as there are two that could be used) don't seem to reference anything.

    Also the Lorpot site seems to be down?

    Bugger. Thought it would of been a fun project too.

      Still waiting mate.

      I too saw 2 different tracking codes - 1 stating delivery early January but the one I'm tracking is still on the move.

      I'm not holding my breath though - a small detail that's recently been associated to my tracking is that the item is under 2kg. Not the 8kg in the initial listing.

      Yeah the website went down the end of January. I've prepopulated my transaction dispute and have it sitting in drafts, ready to send.

        I've begun the transaction dispute. Searching Lorpot just throws up red flags anyway, so just going to assume it was a scam and take it as a lesson to do my research on the companies a bit more thoroughly.

  • CrawlB4uBall on 11/02/2023 - 18:42

    fair play mate. If it's too good to be true it generally is etc….

  • CrawlB4uBall on 24/02/2023 - 15:20

    Last update - the item never arrived. Tracking shows it ended up in Hamilton South NSW. I'm in Brisbane. So obviously sending 1 tracking number to multiple people who have been duped.

    Too bad, so sad. Dispute raised.

      I hoped you would receive at least something. This is disappointing! Good luck with the dispute.

      • CrawlB4uBall on 24/02/2023 - 17:21

        I honestly wanted a scam coin people were talking about in the original post that was deleted. Bummer

    • c64 on 28/02/2023 - 18:44

      i'm surprised they didn't send you a random piece of cheap junk. clearly they didn't even want to spend money on the shipping

      • CrawlB4uBall on 01/03/2023 - 06:00

        Yeah, disappointing outcome but scammers gonna scam I suppose.
