I was searching for a service manual for my B7200HSDV and found kobotamanuals.com which advertised manual downloads for 29.99 US. Seemed pretty legit but after paying, I fot the receipt etc but no download link just links that take you back to the same site to "Buu Now" once you've found the manual you want. Anyone else have any experience with this site???

Thanks in advance

There was a similar thread not long ago
It looks like kubotamanual.com (no s) is back, with a higher price. I suspect Kubotamanual and kubotarepairmanual are related.

I see there's another site up now therepairmanual.com. I think it's new.

The good news is, there's a WSM for your tractor, free, at www.kubotabooks.com. This one has been mentioned on here numerous times. I'd recommend a small donation.

I would suggest you start by contacting the seller and asking them for help with your purchase. They provide a page for that exact purpose..

and therein lies why I always recommend getting a WSM from a dealer. There is no questioning whether or not the dealer is a scam, or whether or not they're gonna be there next week when you need them. Or if you even get the correct manual...as there are some differences between USA models and the rest of the world's models. That's always a fun one when I had to work on them and the owner had a WSM from Canada or England; and they couldn't figure out why their stuff wasn't working as per their manual.

I really want to click on links with mis-spelled names and give them my credit card info

New user posting to fake website? SPAM

Uh, let's think about this.

New user posting about "a FABULOUS website with WONDERFUL things just for YOU! It's great! I've tried it."

Yeah, probably a scam.


New user complaining that a website may be a scam?

That's not how advertising works.

may be worth a try. When I had my issue with them, I got no response.

OP, be prepared to involve your credit card company.
