Descent price, not low enough to be a scam though, I dont think.

Site seems fishy, and no phone number provided. Skip it.

I believe everyone else including Newegg is selling that Laptop for $1000+, so probably a scam....

thanks guys.
I lost the $600 deal on a thoshiba core duo at Frys yesterday and now I'm bored looking for other deals.
I still need to find a good notebook at $600 price range.

definitely fishy... they claim to be "one of the world`s largest stocking vendors of new computer equipment, peripherals and electronics" - yet plug in their US address in google maps and see what you get:

465 Harrison Blvd
Ogden
Utah
84403 United States

smack dab in the middle of a residential neighborhood.

GottaDeal.com has an Inspiron E1505 deal on the main page for $629.

"1.66GHz Intel Core Duo, 15.4" LCD, 512MB RAM, 60GB hard drive, Combo Drive, WiFi and more for $629.00. Free shipping is also included."

Thanks but I'm from Brazil, only Newegg and Frys sell to me. I just ordered some items with them cause I'll be in USA next week. I think I'll just enter at CompUSA or BestBuy and get the cheapest I find.

I had time to see this http://shop4.outpost.com/product/4996151 for $600 and skipped. Now I think I'm just stupid...
