No name carbon frame. There is no way to know its quality without looking it over in person.
If you are comfortable with a frame with no warranty that you cannot return if it is a P.O.S., give it a shot.
Don't expect it to be something wonderful, but it may be serviceable, or it may end up being a wall hanger.

Yeah, I understood that risk but I was wondering if anybody on the forums had experience with these carbon fiber ebay frames.

Thanks for your opinion Allen, appreciate it.
