Trustworthy I'm not sure ... I wouldn't order from a site looking like that though myself

 

[the_music_man]

[Tuffgong4]

[Bootsy]

I THINK I've ordered from them before, the site looks familiar...might be just a template website layout that these people might be using also...hmmm

 

[rushm001]

Looks a bit dodgy to me!

Stick with the rule, if it looks too good to be true, it probley is!

Certificate says you're ordering from Yahoo-inc (Yahoo). It's an o.k certificate.

It says a 'sale' they have made their money on their stock and have some left over before a new stock of different or better cards goes up for sale.

You get that with cars, buy them new and the dealer controls prices, when the showroom has 3 or 4 left they reduce the price heavily to make way for new series of cars.

well i just called them and they are very retarded. i was like do you still have the asus 9600 xt. shes like let me ask...then shes like sirr we don't sell asus, only MSI. i was like wtf b/c the website obviously says they do. so i just hung up and now i ordered from zipzoomfly....and the one from there may of not had the half life coupon but zipzoomfly guarenteed they had them so i feel safer buying from them.

Only as they are using Yahoo to process their transactions (ie a yahoo store) Doesn't mean that Yahoo have vouched that the company is ok.

 

[the_music_man]

yeah ur right rushm. yahoo has to put Ebuyer protection next to them for them to be actually a legit company. theres still lots of ripoff companies that just use yahoo for transactions

 

[Lee]

Well if it goes 'pear shaped' the credit card company are liable, not you. That's UK law on credit cards transactions.

 

[rushm001]

Only if the transactions are over £100. Don't know what the laws are like in the USA though.

[the_music_man]
