Website purchase validity question

[antoniobrownjr]

Hi, I have a question regarding the validity of a website I am thinking of purchasing from. Long story short I'm looking to purchase a new pc and while researching on google came across this site www.crazifire.com which has incredible discounted pc's for sale. I tried googling them to see if I can find out if they are legit or fraudulent but there isn't much information about, not even reviews from what I could find. I chatted with their online reps to question their validity and they claimed to be legit and accepted paypal. So my question would be if anyone paypal or community wise could tell me if they have had issues regarding people shopping with them.

I would hate to make a purchase from them only for the item not to come or find out they're not trustworthy and have to go through a dispute process with paypal to get my money. Normally I stick to official businesses like best buy, hp.com but their deal is "too good to be true" which makes me think they are too.

Thanks for any help in advance.

This to me is too good to be true:

Wow I didn't even notice that. I was just checking out this deal since this is the computer I was looking to buy. Thanks for that as you seem to have answered my question.

I encountered this too. When I saw on the chat box that their email was @yahoo it was a red flag. Also, there's a guy waiting on chat trying to get you to do paypal. It quickly dawned on me that this was a scam. Other people have written on line about his being a scam too.

they also offfer free shipping and did you read their return policy?

They could be a wholesale distributor unloading some goods or employees of a distribution/warehouse and stealing the merchandise .

dont forget if item is not as described,you have to pay return shipping with tracking and anything over $750,signature confirmation.

they also offer 10% discount and there is no physical address of the company,just a google map?

and no payment information,why dont you ask if they accept credit card direct?

to accept credit card direct,they have to apply for a merchant account with a bank 

[antoniobrownjr]

Are you saying they might be valid or do you think they are invalid?

[antoniobrownjr]

They said they do accept credit card direct.
