Zeus_Hunt Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I think one need an account with eBay to view that site.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apcmiller Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 to fix the link you need to drop the "http://" off the front endand I dont know if I like the seller they are selling that same TV 4 times and 2 other TV's twice. Either they are a fake or they got them all reallllllly cheap.All of the sellers comments are buys from yesterday, knida worries me, also all the people they bought from have very low #'s of comments as well. Might want to pay with paypal if you do choose to buy so at least there is some security. Also try to email them to see what they say. Just my advice.

apcmiller Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 their commented sellers are dropping off the registred users many of the sellers themselves have comments left just days ago by no longer register users. you might want to watch out! oh and all the comments were left within a 30 minute period. NOT LOOKING GOOD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejams Posted September 29, 2006 Author Share Posted September 29, 2006 Good thing I'm not buying.What do you watch out for though other than those things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsane Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 1. if it's too good to be true, it probably is2. as apc said, check their user rating/comments. if they've been their for a while and have a good rating you're probably safe (i'm at the point i'll only buy from people with 2000+ cofirmed sales -- but i rarely use ebay for anything)3. don't give them your credit card/checking info, insist on using ebay's internal routines (this is trivial -- you should NEVER give out that info!)that's all i can think of atm...
