My wife found this site: http://www.gloputer.com/

Looks too good to be true. Can't find anything on the web. Has anyone bought from them before?

Thanks

my general rule - if site doesn't have real phone number and address - something wrong.

From their "Contact" page:

For online help, information about online ordering and returns, reporting website errors, or receiving assistance in placing a cbsajds.com order
That would worry me. Not to mention the credit card agreements stipulate you must have a phone number listed on the website for people to get in touch with you. Not only isn't there one, but webform emails only provide for one-way communication.

my mantra is it looks to good to be true then very likely isn't true. If in fact they have said merchandise it may be refurbished stock.

gloputer.com was registered less than a month ago. The whole thing smells like a scam. There's no way you can sell a new 17" Macbook for less than $400....I doubt you could even sell a refurb that cheaply.

Warning sign #1: no physical address and no phone number.....no my money.

+1. If I can't call you on the phone and get a human, I go elsewhere. I do a lot of online business and I don't care how lean times are. If you can't stop what you're doing and answer the phone, I'm not interested.

Thanks everyone for confirming my suspicions.

521 appears to be a country code for Mexico, and not a valid area code. American Samoa is 684.

It shouldn't be that easy for someone to register a website.

It should be that easy to register a website. It should be possible to register a website with that much fraudulent information. How did you get that information?

WhoIs is always a good start, then dig down from there...
