Ok so i was looking around and google shopping showed me this site called discountinstantly.com. I was curious as to what payment processor they were using and found it to be paypal. I see a lot of too-good-to-be-true prices on here but if they really were scammers I don't think paypal would have been the best option. Anyway, I want to know if anyone has ordered from these people or if anyone knows that it's a scam site for sure.
Looks like a fake. I looked at the xbox 360 and ps3 systems they are selling, and both have shiping weights under a pound. There is no way that can be true. There is also no information as to who owns the site, and was only just created a couple months ago.
My son was just (September 2012) ripped off by these guys. PayPal is supposed to reimburse him for his ~$150.00 loss but they should block this site altogether. If you use discountinstantly.com, you should expect to lose your money. We all know when we see some "unbelievable" price that it's 'too good to be true' because....it a fraud / con game. Beware!
Well I am very disappointed that Paypal did not pull this companies paypal button sooner. I did buy from them on Oct. 30th and I did trust them becuase of the Paypal payment mode. Well their web site is now cancelled and I'm out $100. for the forseeable future.
Thanks for watching my back PAYPAL !!! You **bleep**
Is there a way to sue Paypal for not protecting the consumers since it knows about the business nature of Discountinstantly? I've asked PP about it current cases against the Dis but PP would not answer.
Base on PP unwilling to provide the needed info and other websites negative feedback on Dis, it's obvious not to do business with Dis wihile trying to save $50 or so.
I don't like seeing people getting ripped off while PP not doing much about it.
Well, I paid $99 for a PS3 from DiscountInstantly and of course there is no PS3 at my house. I really hope PayPal honors their fraud policy by reimbursing everyone that got taken by this site using PayPal services. That is the only reason I trusted the site.
Discountinstantly.com is definitely a scam seller. I have purchased via Paypal a Kindle Fire and after attempting to communicate with seller, I have received no replies. After intial purchase I did receive an email including a tracking # to be used in the discountinstantly.com website for tracking status. I discovered the website no longer exists! I have not received replies from seller or product purchased. I believe Paypal should employ some sort of seller validation in order to protect its buyers. I am still awaiting Paypal resolution and refund of my $100.
