helmets on Ebay
 
OK, I have tried on all the different helmets and the shoei fit me the best. Now here is the next question....How many of you have purchased a helmet off of ebay? Is there a seller that someone has used and had great service.

Also, does anyone see any safety concerns with purchasing a helmet from ebay if it is new

just the normal ebay speech from me. be carefull, email the seller, and only buy from someone with lots of transactions and a high rating. i bought my jacket, boots, and gloves off ebay. all from different sellers and no problems. just make sure to contact them. and also ask if they have a return policy for damaged products in case it gets damaged in transit. good luck

I bought a helmet from a seller on Ebay, but he was recommended from a friend who already dealt with him and had good results. Be advised that the helmet I got was a Shoei X-11 which was imported from Japan, so it's not DOT approved; however, it is Snell 2000...

I can't find the seller I used any more...sorry...

I would buy all day long from Ebay. In fact, I have sold some helmets. Just ask all the questions u can think of. Know your seller, and their policies.

I bought a new VEMAR gloss black for $199.00 U.S. and it came with a Dark smoke visor.
The guy I bought it off was an excellent seller with awesome communication. I was kinda scared at first but when I got the helmet It was perfect. I followed the sizing chart and it fit just right. I think he's from Michigan.
Here's the EBay # from the guy I bought mine off of. 8036304717
His name is Brian, here's his web site also.

I bought a new Arai Quantum-2 on ebay last year. It was an easy choice, about $140 less than the cheapest local store. It was new in the box. However that seller hasn't sold anything since November 05.
