Wouldn't bother - Just another scam site fishing for CC info.

Another one of their product listings - https://maryleyanstey.works/shopping/uncategorized.html/nintendo-switch/

A Nintendo Switch with 3 games for $128 !

They didn't even bother to actually change the About us info to match the site

---fudgesicle--- it. I threw a burner card at it.  Let’s see what happens.  My wife ordered a bunch of too good to be true rugs and they all showed up and look awesome.... and they sent us 2 extra rugs.   :dunno

YEah things do happen at times but I wouldn't get your hopes up too much ! THough I did get a switch lite for $20 a few months ago when VIPOUTLET made a mistake on their price ( instead f 198.99 they listed it for $18.99 - so with Tax it cost me $20.55 - figured they would catch it and not deliver since it tok about 5 days for them to ship it but it arrived a couple days later later !

At that price pbj, I'd probably take two.  Let us know how it turns out.

Yeah at that price I couldn't pass it up - If I had thought there was any way it would actually arrive - I'd have bought several - was checking on a TV order I had placed with them ( Refurbished Onn 50" (2160P) LED TV  for $135 ) and saw it listed at that price so quickly put in the order - checked back about 10 minutes later and it showed sold out ! During the 5-6 days it took for them to ship it I thought I'd be getting an e-mail saying they had made an error in the listing and cancel it - so was pretty shocked when it actually showed up at my door.

Well, the site's offline, so that's that.  Time to file a dispute.

That $79 doesn't seem so far fetched now, does it?   :lol  At least I got my money back in less than 5 minutes and it was nice to have some human contact.

These type of fire sales are either never in my region, or I find out about them hours after they are sold out.

Yeah but my $50 purchase was at Walmart so no need to wonder what the company would do with the personal info they gathered.

Congrats! I'd buy that Star Wars for full price. If I found some for $50, I'd buy them out.

Had actually only seen it in store once (think it was a pre-order or stor pickup order that was never picked up so was put out on the shelf several months after release ) - Went looking for any of the $50 clearance cabs and they had sold everything except a single $199 TMNT and the Star Wars cab which was still showing the $499 price - decided to scan it to see and it came up $50 !

Save some for the others, you hoarder. I bet you got 18 cases of TP, as well. ;)
