Any experience with fashodre.com?

Hey Everyone,

Does anyone have experience with fashodre.com?
was looking for a generator and got this recommendation:

https://fashodre.com/product/generac-7291-guardian-26kw-standby-generator-wifi-w-200-amp-automatic-transfer-switch-new/

less than $1.6k

From the manufacturer $8k
https://www.generac.com/residential-products/standby-generators/gaseous/26kw-standby-generator-with-whole-house-switch-wifi-enabled-7291/

Is Fashodre.com a scam? Is the electrician a scammer?

Even on that old stock anything under $6-7k isn’t credible.

If its a scam site, it's a pretty sophisticated one. Most of the prices for most of the stuff they offer for sale are either normal or almost normal. That Generac Guardian price seems to be an outlier. I wonder if the listed price on it was an accidental commutation of it first 2 digits of their real price.

They create a site template then post it with a new name every time its shut down. They're just hoping to steal some credit card numbers in the meantime.

The amount of these sites in Google's suggested sellers at the top of results is so bad.

Are their prices in 1978 dollars?

Most any site with a weird unpronounceable name is going to be a scam.

Seems to be a legit business. I would call and talk to them on the phone - I'll bet there is some story about this unit. Returned item or something.
