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.

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.

Be careful as there are still Marketplace scams going on. 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.

Scam can happens too in Amazon, that's why I always make sure I buy stuff from someone that have good reviews. I will not buy from someone that have less than 4 stars.

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.

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)

lol just tried to look up a part and got this message, i do appreciate a site with a sense of humour :D

 

The requested product is not yet in our database, but we have dispatched some stalwart Camels to find it. This may take some time, but eventually it should appear.

Thank you for your patience.

    • On xiaomi hyperos there's also an option to disable google assistant. I've got everything disabled. Only thing I do have installed is a web wrapped for duck.ai which claims to let you use various AIs anonymously
    • I need to understand the rationale of not shipping all of these K2 improvements in a single update/release. It's giving "we will fix Windows 11 but no commitments". It seems to me that they just announce these improvements just to appease the community.
    • The term "RTM" is long gone starting with Windows 10. Every current release is a GA build. This is the result of MS making Windows as a Service (WaaS).
    • Looks like no official TBW rating, which should be a required listing in my opinion for sites like Amazon (hell, put it on the box too.)
