nukenorman Posted December 8, 2016 Author Share Posted December 8, 2016 Thanks for the replies. It looks like a huge website with tons of other stuff for sale that is why I had some question on it. Accepts CCs and so many other items on it that look legit from many sellers sorta like an ebay or craigslist type of site. I defiantly wont be buying it then. Yes priced way to low suprised it is not sold already guess they are going to take as many CC numbers as they can. Mando 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macoman Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I want to share my thought about it... I have only two stores online that I trust all the time... Amazon and Ebay. I never buy anything from some other stores. In Ebay you have to make sure you buying from a reputable seller with at least 98% of positive review. On amazon, you can buy from anybody... you have the protection of amazon if the seller scammed you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a CamelCamelCamel price alert for the Fenix3 and it gets triggered every few days with a new Marketplace supplier with 10000+ items and asking you email them first. Obviously price was way low and websites are often only registered days before but it must work for them as they keep changing company name and have done it 12 times already that I know of. And try reporting to Amazon.... not easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will not buy from someone that have less than 4 stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even that can be faked, few years ago a Marketplace seller set up and sold Windows licences at above normal prices then used stolen cards to purchase and review then dropped price to 20% below everybody else and send out fakes with the same licence codes. As you say at least Amazon cover you which is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say at least Amazon cover you which is great. tbh i only ever buy items on Amazon that are fulfilled by amazon themselves or known vendors i trust (for example Scan.co.uk via amazon store) its getting too easy to miss its coming form china, it catches so many people out, not that all stuff from china is trash, but I prefer amazon direct as the fullfillers. as far as fleabay, I tend to avoid it in general, but thats just a personal preference. Ive never had an issue selling items on it, but rarely buy 2nd hand items (tech anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may take some time, but eventually it should appear. Thank you for your patience. macoman 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
