PLBs Can Save Your Life

Thanks. I placed an order. Don't have high hopes but I guess you never know.

I ordered one too. It is either a scam or a mistake. If the former, I'll let PayPal take care of it for me. If the latter, perhaps we can negotiate.

I finally got my payment page to work. Anyone else who tried have that problem? I doubt that it will go thru but I am too curious. If it fails, I am protected.

I doubt that they will ship them. I guess at worst a dispute on payment.

coatien.club was only registered as a domain on 3 April 2020.

I would not trust them with my credit card details.

I felt uneasy and dipped out right before sending my card info.

I found the 425 (display version) on a site called NineOutlets.com (now disappeared) last summer for $70. I bought using PP - no way was I giving them my CC info directly. They even sent a bogus USPS tracking # to me through PP.
Never got it. They never responded to any of my emails. PP eventually credited me.

I would be concerned that it is potentially a CC info stealing operation ... You may not be liable, but it is a PITA if your card needs to be replaced, especially if you have it on file with "real" providers.


ETA:
from Coatien ...
Nebraska Address
Alabama Area Code
Shipping pages is all about UK delivery

smells like a slapped-together honeypot.

At least NineOutlets had the guts to list contact info in China ... I figured maybe they were refurbs, blems, etc.

Which is exactly why I use PayPal to buffer me from these scumbags.

I did, but Paypal recently canceled me. No reason was given, and I can't imagine one. I tried to deal with it, but no joy. I've since read that they have done such to others. My Paypal Mastercard was my go-to payment choice with its 2% cash rebate, but I've stopped using it now and waiting for my new Citibank 2% rebate card to arrive. I have a hotel stay in July prepaid with my Paypal card so just leaving it open until I see if I go or cancel with refund.

That's the approach I took. Paypal is very slow to resolve problems but they do eventually resolve them. Even better, they don't charge a fee like a brick-n-mortar bank does for chargebacks. I ordered two of them.

Yeah paypal is infamous for that. Not that bad when you're a consumer using paypal as a middle man. I've heard of businesses foolish enough to treat paypal like a bank. Then, when paypal decided arbitrarily to close their account all the money in that account is forfeited. Some stories I've read claim that paypal stole hundreds of thousands in this manner.

I ordered one of each model, separately.
The paypal address was different for the two orders:

I expect all are fake and its a scam, but if I only get one it is still a good deal.
