Yong Heng Compressors 99.99 on Ebay
- Thread starter ksfastman
- Start date
That's an enticing price and I would like a compressor but Ebay shows that the seller is on vacation and to allow extra time for shipping. I'm defiantly interested to see how this works out for you. Thanks for sharing, good luck. I hope it works for you.

There was one for $59 on flea bay and few months ago and a bunch of us on GTA took the plunge. It turned out just like you would expect it was a scam but we all got our money back. Not saying that this is a scam also but who knows.

These cheap yong heng are clones. They aren't the real orginal yong heng. They do work but dont count them to last more than a month. I had one of these clones in the past and they last like a month before it wont go over 3000 psi. The real orginal yong heng should last 1-2 years. Some have said their real yong heng even lasted more than 2 years.

I have a clone and so far it's held up but I only fill my rifle with it so it never runs more than a few min. Only problem I had was the burst disk kept popping at anywhere between 2000 and 4000 psi. I finally just doubled the disks as I never fill above 3500psi and I'm watching the whole time.

I feel like it's a scam also, this one I posted the link to is actually described as a Vevor brand...the same seller also has some listed that are supposed to be Yong Heng.

I dang sure don't need another compressor, I've got a Shoebox, Mrod Extreme or whatever he calls them nowadays and an Omega Turbocharger. I was just intrigued!

Anytime you see a price that is clearly out of normal know that it is very likely a scam of some kind. Stay clear. Don't post links to these.
Saying they are on vacation is probably another way they have of keeping your money in the system longer so they can get more sales and pull the funds out so Ebay ends up eating the cost and they win. You may get your money back but it comes from somewhere else, not them.
We need to stop encouraging this.

Along with the price being way out of line with the current market pricing; look carefully at the pictures.
Only 1 image shows the Yong Heng name on the left side of the compressor.
None of the other images have the YH name on the side.
It could be a copy paste from a real Yong Heng listing.
Good thing eBay & PayPal make it easy to get resolution if you get scammed
As long as you have a week or 3 to wait for your refund
Mod edit: removed OP's link.

The offering is US only.
If i follow the link i get to the mentioned compressor but if i make a search in the subcategory with the text from the add then i do not get a hit. I'm in Denmark.
Many years ago a friend of mine imported 40ft containers of Chinese toys for x-max. From that i learned that the manufactor in China got 11% of the final sales price in Denmark.
So for a $100 toy he got @ $11, the rest is transport, WAT, customs, taxes and profit.
I do not think that a Chinese manufactor has that great a margin and can cut prises by 50% without losing (serious) money, so either a missing 1 in front of the price or a scam.
Oh and even on Yong Hengs www they show plenty of compressors without any text on the side, so no text does not equal a copy!

Check the tracking carefully and see if it is headed your way or is tracking to somewhere else, the weight is reasonable, etc.

It appears to be coming to me and the weight seems right, not light at all. The label was created shortly after I purchased it and it's already moved thru the system over there twice. I don't need it, but I'm very intrigued by the Yong Heng style compressors.

Lol 
I just pick one up if if Craigslist new in the box for a hundred. I am impressed with how it fills my guns . From 130 up to 250 bar like nothing . Only took about 45seconds. I purchased it not even checking or knowing the retail value. Glad I wasn’t off on what I paid!

These have come down in price from 500.00 to where they are now. Really impressive market forces in play. Consider that we still have the trade war/tariff Tiff going on with China.
Be sure to watch for fatigue and wear. Always treat HPA like a hand grenade. Those SCBA bottles contain similar energies.
