Another cheap laptop

[db]

I can go them one better, because I'll tell you up front what I'm going to do:
Give me your money, I'll hold it for 8 months (or longer if you'll let me);
I'll make money from interest or by giving out loans, or by trading on the market.
By then you'd just be happy to get your money back.
j/k

SCAM, DO NOT BUY FROM THESE CROOKS

I bough from them before nothing shipped. So i Told them that i will physically go to their warehouse with a very big shotgun.

Then they refunded my money the next day.

That's an interesting link genice. Thank you

I just hope forbiddenfruit gets his laptop.

Anyone else with (crappy) dealings with this company?

Someone did mention that they actually did recieve from them at one point though.

I just wanted to mention that if you dispute the charge that any company puts on your credit card, then the interest that the charge accrued is also refundable. Even if this company uses your money as a 0 interest loan as someone stated, it should cost you nothing because your Credit card comapny must refund the purchase price and the interest.

Interesting... there has been an update on their status w/ the BBB... says something about change of ownership and management.

 

[ChrisIsBored]

I wonder if he ever got his laptop yet...

 

[hanybanoub]

The Toshiba w/ the Nvidia graphics chip for example :Q

Has anyone tried to get Sears to pricematch the Sony VAIO PCG FX-120? I would try it myself, but there is no way this one would get by the wife.

I believe Sears still has the policy is to match any internet price by printing out the webpage and taking it to their store. Would be worth a shot for $600 savings. I did this on a Sony TRV-720 camcorder to save over $400 dollars off of the Sears price.

 

[ChrisIsBored]

Wow an 80G HD on that P4 laptop! The biggest i've seen so far in a laptop is 30G's. Definately a scam. But the pricematch deal would be nice. Someone go to Sears!

 

[iluvdeal]

Does COD makes it any safer? I don't think you can run and ask the postman for your money order back once you open up and find a brick in your box. I'd still rather pay by credit card.

 

[hanybanoub]

You may be right iluvdeal

But if their &quot;representitive&quot; contacts me, I'll have them email me a guarantee of the product delivery, and that it will be new.

I'd also document and take photos of the entire event, with the postman/UPS man as a witness, of the brick or <insert CRAP here> they've sent me. I'd open it, take photos of it w/ the postman/UPS guy...I'd document it all!!

I'll be mentioning this to them of course, and see their response

It will be interesting...and good fun

 

[firehawk2]

guys stop acting like children!!! THIS IS A SCAM!!!!!!!!!! look at those 3 guys who bought the lapotps!!! anyways those prices are avg... you can get some laptops cheaper than that like t20!! i got p3-700 thinkpad t20 for $650 and compaq 1700 600mhz p3 for $600!

 

[RSM]

where did you get those firehawk?

 

[hanybanoub]

I second that RSM

An additional 10 percent of 1150.99, which would make it $1036!! :Q :Q :Q :Q :Q

This is tooo much!!

 

[jeepers94]

I guess you guys do not read all the facts! The low price for the sony Picture book is with
4-8 week waiting period! it is over $2000 shipped express! Not $1395!
