    Is stbuop.com a scam?

    No way this can be legit. Seems to good to be true, so it probably is, right? Cs3 for $99?

    Only takes visa and bank transfer. Sketchy site with too good of a deal..... What could go wrong?

        They can't get those for that price from PE. There's no way that's real

            Now I kind of want to know what the scam is though.

              I do too. Would something even show up in the mail, and if so what would my mystery price actually be?

                go big or go home, get the DSR+ for the same price as the EMEK, way better "deal" 🙄 https://www.stbuop.com/action-villag...t-p-773670.htm

                  According to google, the website has been around for 6 years, and is "not likely" a scam site. But, it looks like every scam site I've ever seen. In faq, I recognize the FAQ section from a known scam site. It was the same, word for word.

                  But. Good deals do come sometimes. I remember years ago when the rainmakers were clearanced out dirt cheap. Then when WGP sold off its cockers dirt cheap. Then the SA8 pistols sold dirt cheap.

                  Internet fraud has become so common that banks are pretty good about dealing with it. Maybe once a year I'll find something fishy, I'll go to my bank and they will reverse the charge, and give me a new card. As such, I'm not as worried about scam sites as I used to be

                    I tempted to get a prepaid visa just for this. A CS3 for $99 is pretty enticing, and in blue and grey. Does paypal offer pretty good protections from scams?

                      If you guys are worried about it just buy something that's like $5 first and see if it shows up.

                      But seriously a dsr for $99?

                      Even when the matrix scams were a thing in the 2010s you didn't see prices like that.

                        They have a powerful customer service team that shows their profession. How much more assurance do you need? Plus the FAQ seems to imply that the products listed on the site were developed by them……whoever “them” is.
