Was looking thru the local rag and well, well well, look what i found
I spy with my little eye, something beginning with C…
Copyright infringement me thinks
Am i wrong folks ???
Your eye spies are working fine… It’s a counterfeit hive.
And they are asking the same price as a far superior hoop pine flow hive:
Cheeky sods
Thats the one that has been around on aliexpress for awhile https://www.aliexpress.com/item/New-Design-Honey-flow-automatic-beehive-honey-free-flow-beehive/32687304060.html.
I like it how the Gumtree add says “The free flow hive is a new Australian hive design”.
on ebay a few months ago an Australian based bee equipment seller sold several of these hives- exactly the same- for $395 each. I have a feeling they imported some to see if they could get away with passing them off as genuine- ran into trouble- and then liquidated them at a low price.
here is one from Germany- and you only have to pay $724 dollars for postage!
You are 100% correct @Rodadon, use the “report” button to tell Gumtree is is a Copyright Infringement.
I think what that hive needs is some 91 octane and a light. Should go up quite nicely lol
Ive reported him to gumtree admin, lets see what happens
