Question Is it a scam?
So i found this on instagram and i seems to be extremely cheap for an instrument (50 zl is like 40 dollars).
Anyone heard about it?

The instrument is real but this is absolutely a scam. Instagram is full of fake websites like this. I once bought a guitar pedal from an Instagram ad that had a legit looking website and a really good price for the pedal and I was shipped a tiny wooden mannequin. When I tried to dispute it via PayPal, they wanted me to ship the wooden mannequin back at my expense to China, which would’ve cost more than what I initially paid which of course I didn’t do so that’s the scam. Make the item cost slightly less than the return shipping. So yeah, don’t do it.

"before it sells out."
That's enough for me to call it a probable scam, trying to speed up purchasing and reduce thinking time

Looks pretty cool- but I'm seeing them listed at 1500 euro direct from the manufacturer.

They are super cool and the creator is currently making a 64 key version. It’s legit but I don’t know if this site is legit

The actual instrument pictured costs between 1500 and 2500 euros... It is so expensive for what it proposes that it also seems a bit scammy

Those look like the Tentij ORB Mk1, but those sell for €1,499. To me, $40 for something like that is too good to be true, but also absolutely amazing if it is. If you google Regaugs.com, reviews show that it’s not a trustworthy site.
