>Hi, I am a potential online scooter buyer and I found this
>site, zingomotors.com that offers fairly cheap and new
>scooters. They seem to offer the exact same collection of scooter models (or very close, anyway) as Baron, with the same warranty, shipping prices, return policy, etc. The only difference is that their prices are $150 higher for each model.
The only quality indicator I can see for these things are the warranty policies. (Some are as little as 30 days parts only and YOU have to pay shipping for the parts). Zingo has the same deal as Baron, so there's no reason to believe they're $150 better.
I don't have a LOT of experience with Baron yet (My bike is 3 weeks old today), but they've done what they've said, and the one part I needed was shipped when they said they would, at no cost to me. So far, I'm satisified with the quality and the value.
