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.

    • FIFA cup is a worldwide event. Total global engagement — FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 (official FIFA report) 5 billion people https://theworlddata.com/fifa-...-cup-viewership-statistics/ U.S., Canada, Japan drive vast World Series viewership for Games 1 and 2 In Japan despite a 9 a.m. local start time, Game One averaged 11.8 million viewers on NHK-G https://www.mlb.com/news/2025-...ching-large-global-audience There are also millions of annual viewers of the World Series in Latin America, especially Venezuela and the Domincan Republic due to the large number of players from those countries playing in the Major Leagues.
    • The original word arts were far more awesome! With their own preconfigured fill patterns, 3D layout, etc. I especially loved the ones circled below and still miss them from my primary school years: I frankly use them less these days 'cause the new one isn't as straightforward fine art as what we originally had. Same with the built-in picarts selection.
    • What didn't you understand about that was mainly referring to Google, Microsoft, etc. keeping your passwords. Password Management is a key service of Bitwarden and it's not going anywhere. In any case they do offer export to other Password management services, backup/download of passwords, and the already mentioned on-prem option. I don't agree with the OP to use the free option as it's better to be an actual customer IMO. They don't just don't delete accounts like the big tech companies with no recourse which was the main concern of this article. I was confused if the author was trying to sell this setup? It should be obvious to anyone reading this article this solution is overly complicated and overkill for most users.
    • I got this notification just now in Android: So I went in to disable the "Other" or "Marketing" notifications in Notifications management: But it came through the Now Playing? So if I disable that I no longer get what's Now Playing in Notifications? I'm a paying subscriber, not on the free plan... can they sink any lower?
    • Population especially in high density areas creates more heat and more humidity. This can be noticed in an indoor arena or concert room which heats up when the room or arena fills with people, without air conditoning to cool it down, Watering of lawns creates more humidity as the moisture from the watering rises into the atmosphere, creating a more humid condition. The again, depopulating an arena or room after an event will drop the temperature inside. Desert areas are less humid for a number of reasons, including a lower population density. Tel Aviv has horrible weather, unless you like it hot and humid. Summer days are regularly 90+ F with humidity well over 70%. It is probably not as bad as Mississippi but still it is bad enough.
