[url]http://www.compuvest.com/Desc.jsp?iid=1135669[/url] My friend wants to buy that... Is it a legit site?
Looks pretty sketchy, just wait until newegg has them back in stock. It's 50 bucks cheaper on newegg anyway.
No, I wouldent trust that site if I were you. Like the guy above me says wait till new egg gets it. Not worth the risk..... (personal experiance)
My friend wants it soon because it's his Christmas present. Is it worth the risk? Also, what's the worst that can happen?

(personal experiance)[/QUOTE] learn to spell and maybe you won't look retarded. one site customer's review: [quote]The problem is that you are often plagued by spam, even though this is a good source for electronics.[/quote]
[QUOTE=lemonlimecom;18786313]My friend wants it soon because it's his Christmas present. Is it worth the risk? Also, what's the worst that can happen?[/QUOTE] They can steal your identity. Just wait.
[QUOTE=lemonlimecom;18786313]My friend wants it soon because it's his Christmas present. Is it worth the risk? Also, what's the worst that can happen?[/QUOTE] they take your friend's address and rape him
[QUOTE=lemonlimecom;18786313] Also, what's the worst that can happen?[/QUOTE] Two things could happen - You never get the card, or you do get it and it's DOA but their returns policy is shit and you end up with nothing anyway.
Just fucking wait.
A quick google would get you this [url]http://www.resellerratings.com/store/CompuVest[/url] They have a 4.32/10 life time rating out of 192 reviews, I'd say steer clear, wait for newegg.
Every site is safe if you use a credit card. You're not liable for any fraudulent charges and don't have to pay a cent if you don't get your stuff.
It's a trap.

So on what basis do you judge this site to be unsafe I'm curious.
There are dozens of reviews that say this websites unsafe.
Just wait until newegg gets it. [img]http://imgkk.com/i/SQ9vbg.jpg[/img]
^^ What plugin?
I'm praying that Firefox with a Chrome theme. Addon name?
I just came at the sight of that addon name please. and Op wait even if you use CC your CC company will be pissed of if you pull shit like denying payments when you didn't read the fine print.
[QUOTE=Keithoms;18802718]^^ What plugin?[/QUOTE] Its called Invisible Hand [url]https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/11377[/url] [QUOTE=Eight Bit;18802735]I'm praying that Firefox with a Chrome theme. Addon name?[/QUOTE] Yeah its firefox
[QUOTE=Goatham;18802783]Its called Invisible Hand [url]https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/11377[/url] Yeah its firefox[/QUOTE] That is like the coolest addon ever.
Also get the My Web Of Trust Addon, it integrates WoT into firefox so you can see websites that have a poor repuation easily. Stuff like google links etc will show a WoT symbol next to links so you can see how trustworthy the website is. [url]https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3456[/url]
Looks dodgy as fuck.

[QUOTE=Skwee;18817224]Haha, what a weird webpage naming system.. I honestly thought that it was going to be a 404 because I thought you just typed a bunch of random letters.[/QUOTE] Yeah it is a weird webpage naming thing. Hey it is google though they do what they want.
