This Craig's list ad seems not to say good things about the Mobiky's spare parts availability, and other aspects. Anyone know why he wouldn't just fix it and use it?

I have a Mobiky folding bike in really good condition. I have an extra rear wheel hub assembly and tire. I also have brand new chain and gears. The onlyi thing missing is the gear pinion which connects the dual chain system. It was worn out and I was not able to obtain the part. This bike is great as a spare parts machine.

I THINK that guy posted that ad like a few weeks ago.
and a poster here mentioned mobiky is not shipping any parts so it's basically un-rideable.
maybe if he part it out there would be interest. I'm wondering if this is a common problem
or were they ridden hard. (I would like to buy the rear wheel but He'll probably ask too much)

Mobiky has been unresponsive to emails and calls. The US distributor is having problems with Mobiky too because they promised a 16" wheel bike, but never delivered it. I would buy that for $250 just for fun, but not for $400.
