Bulk Gadgets is not a retailer per se. The business has been around in one form or another for a number of years.

This recent venture, actually selling them, appears to be a new direction - probably more profitable, but not from the sales... Their take comes from the information about the buyers' behavior. I haven't purchased from them this time - so I can't say what's up - but I did buy an iPod about a year and a half ago from their company - which is called also BGI. Everything was fine.
They are registered as a business under personal and profesional services in Delaware, but have a warehouse (or temporary leased space) at a location (office park of some sort) in Florida. With their customer service in New York - I think. They have 24/7 live receptionist, have excellent ratings on Verizon SuperPages, and no record of complaints with the BBB. My only concern with them at this point is that their primary business is in information, not retail, so they are a bit slow to respond to customer inqueries, but likely speedy to respond when Sony execs call!
In any case, I just noticed this thread and thought I, as a past reasonably satisfied customer of Bulk Gadgets would add my 2 cents!

That dosen't make sence. If you stole playstation 3s would you sell them below retail and raise the eyebrows of everyone with an IQ of 1+? I sure as hell wouldn't, I'd be on craigslist and selling them for slightly above cost.
True, but if they don't want their account numbers to be traced and locked by the Feds, it's better to setup your own site rather than leave a trail on Ebay. Craigslist makes sense definitely, except if they are trying to sell a pallets/truckload of stolen PS3s quickly.

Given that we know these guys know about this thread... it's hard to take anyone like you seriously. Which gives even more reason to doubt this company.
haha...you guys convinced this is a scam yet? 2 shills already! :laugh:Originally posted by: TJATLANTA

Well I guess 2 posters with a combined total of 3 lifetime posts can't be ignored lol. Anyone that still believes this is anything but a scam in process will never be convinced otherwise.
Cancel your purchases and let the credit card co's go after them.

I ended up asking them to cancel my order.. not worth the risk. The price will come down in a year anyway and there is nothing worthwhile to play on the PS3.

NBA Live 07 was pretty cool... when you paused, you could see the sweat still dripping down the players' heads...

Of course a real neo con would twist it around and post 'oh you saw the American flag and laughed, huh you terrorist why do you hate America'.
Huh, what the heck does that have to do with a questionable PS3? When did I ever come up with some sort of ficticious cockamany-name bashing-conspiracy-nonscence about you? When did I ever say that America was a terrorist state? When did I ever announce any sort of political association, no less in the hot deals section? Kamazon the Mental Institute called, they said it's time for your meds and a nap. Now go crawl back in to your cage.
EDIT:
PS
If you want this to be politcal, then I will give you one observation I have made from a registerd "no party affiliated" middle of the road point of view: When a Democrat disagrees with the opposing parties issue he/she typicaly attacks the Person, but When a Republican disagrees with an opposing party he attacks the Issue and not the Person (or Personality). You typify a Democrat that can never renforce an arguement with facts but with pure emotional thinking that is not based on logic; And that is dangerous.
(- I Voted for Dole, Kerry, and Gore then Jeb Bush/Charlie Christ for FL State Governor and Democrat Bill Nelson as My Senator)
You might, but I don't vote for the party line, just the lesser of two evils who will work to stamp out pork spending and corruption and those who will protect our freedoms, sovernty, borders, and national security
but When a Republican disagrees with an opposing party he attacks the Issue and not the Person (or Personality).
