Kids rd's products

I don't really NEED a laptop but I want one so I've been all over the web bidding and searching for a great product at a super price. I recently came across this web site and I'm wondering what you all think. If it raises red flags, please let me know why. For some reason, my scam radar went off but my gut said maybe. What do you think? http://w3.to/rdsproducts

Hmm, GAIN anyone? Pop-ups galore.

I wonder why all the links are going back to geocities?

That instills a lot of confidence to me.

I certainly hope you don't really consider buying anything from this place.

Oh wow! And you get a FREE gold necklace/bracelet with every order!

Welcome to TechIMO!!

Wanna buy a bridge?



Bill

Edit: Seriously lap prices are not too divergent. Go with a company with certifiable rep.

Ekron, KY? Wow, that makes the third location. If they're so reputable, why don't they put a REAL address and other ways to contact them?

ANYBODY that buys from a place like this will get no sympathy from me.

If you want us to tell you to go ahead and buy from them I don't think it will happen.

Seems like you have already made up your mind about 95%.

When some company goes to such lengths assuring their honesty and to send them money ( to P.O. Box BTW ) it causes me to wonder why.

If you order let us know how it turns out.

Good luck!

Bill

Edit: Even the web page looks cheesey.

Thanks guys. I just needed to hear it a few more times. I wasn't really going to send this guy my money. My one big criteria that he couldn't meet is that I have some sort of recourse; be it credit card insurance, paypal buyer protection, yahoo direct pay or something. If he's so reputable one would think he'd be open to this.
