Sure looks sketchy. The website looks pathetic. The prices are unreasonably low. And a Google search on them turns up nothing but their website. You buy from them first! Then I'll consider it. |

Identity of the owners is hidden behind domainsbyproxy.com.
Glad you had good luck, but too sketchy for me. |

kinda odd, considering that they don't have any contact info on their site.
Not to mention the domain registration info ain't public either.
more so, seems a bit convenient that you joined SS today and your first post is to "reassure" all of us they are legit.
sniff sniff... guess what that smells like???
yup, you guessed it... troll
to the OP, rule of thumb, websites with no contact information, no phone number or any other way to get in touch with CS before you place an order > stay away.
I also guffawed a lil' when I saw that logo |

No contact name and address and domain details hidden spells no chance of any business from me.

But instead they sent me a Sigma 610 DG ST (anywhere for$165) will not issue refund. made me pay with a cashiers check. COD no other options supposedly availiable. will not answer phone calls from me anymore. has their website sources hidden. The creditcard scam is a different tactic don't get stolen from......also the same as lensclearance.com and Direct Marketing. Will ask for checks to made out to 360 Destination.... |

I know, right aynia?
seems like this angel of wisdom that saw all of us folks confused and came down to shed some light...
pffft.
Ron, the poor sap on dpreview shoulda had a red flag when they asked him to pay with a cashiers check.
At least with a credit card, paypal you have protection and get your money back but with a cashier's check or money order you are doomed.
The problem is that although the consumers usually get their money back on cc transactions in most cases the banks won't.
And these fraudsters count on that. cause they're still making a profit.
And when or if they get shut down by their ISPs eventually, 2 days later something like lensclearence comes up and they start it all over again.
somethimes they run these in parallel to maximize ROI :) 1-2 get shut down 7 are still up
sigh |
