Return service is great, customer service top notch.
Plenty of deals and good selection of goods.

  • TigerDirect

You can get it here dirt cheap. If you are not in a hurry, you can put yourself on a contact list and see when price is reduced or name a price and by advised if reached. Their special dailies are to die for at times.
I built a $3000 computer for around $900 using this method.
Know what you want, this is the place to shop.

If you can't find it here, might as well as head over to Ebarf.

Other web pages load and display faster with no ads or scripts running unless you allow.
These are good and SAFE. You will be asked to donate and or upgrade from time to time but it is small price to pay for what it saves in frustration.
Go here, download free, safe, usable. Enjoy the internet again.

Rip off accounts much? Someone had to lose so you could have gold to sell.

Oh hell yeah! I want to send some real money to some guys that may be responsible for ripping off my friends account last week. Don't you understand no matter what a GREAT deal you are getting somewhere, somebody had to either suffer with friggin gold farmers on their realm, or more likely some poor soul had his account ripped off so you could buy his gold?
I hope each and everyone of you has a really "great" experience with companies like this, scrubs.

Yep, I am just dying to give my account information to someone so they can do what they want to my account. Not to mention the fact that if you support gold farmers you support one of the main reasons people get their accounts hacked and all their stuff stolen and go through the grief of restoration.
Oh wait! It is also against EULA of most all the games they "service" and I could lose my account for doing this? Well hell, where do I send my money, gotta get me some of this!

Why would you pay money for something that is free?
Never ceases to amaze me how people let their emotions pull out their wallets. This site pulls from free data bases available in every state and locale as mandated by federal government.

Just visit the FREE Dept of Justice NSOPW website and get the same information for zip, nada, FREE! Did I mention it was free?
Most services of this type do the same thing, pull from free data bases that for a couple of seconds searching you can access the same information for free. And you don't have to give an email to spam or credit card number.

Tip for consumers:
Keep your money, buy food.

Call your credit card company, deny payment.
Go to the Federal Trade Commission and file a complaint

Ignorance is Bliss, but Bliss can be expensive.
Please try and understand that your personal information is out there, even if you never had a computer and never touched the internet, there is still a huge amount of public information available, to anyone that wants it. Data is big business and business is good.

I feel sorry for folks that get scammed by companies such as this, but try to understand the internet before entering into any monetary transactions online.
They are probably not local to you, they may not even be bound by laws of your nation. They can be anywhere and do practically whatever they want.

You wouldn't hand some stranger money at your front door would you?
Hand them your credit card information?
Why in the world would you do that on the internet?
Emotional knee jerk reaction. We have something on you!

Many types of your public information is on the internet. You cannot remove it. Hence the "public" part.
There may be many types of your personal information on the internet as well.
You might can get it removed but it is quite difficult. It is an involved, time consuming process and best handled by attorneys that specialize.

DO NOT EVER put anything into or on a social website, even when you think what you are doing is private, that you would not print in your local news paper or tell your worst enemy. Same with your email.

EVERYTHING you do on the internet, mobile phone, mobile device, tablet etc etc is available to, and being saved by someone, somewhere and is worth money.
There is NO privacy. Get used to it.

Tip for consumers:
You wouldn't hand some stranger money at your front door would you? Hand them your credit card information? Bank info? Why in the world would you do that on the internet?

Their customer service and returns is a nightmare! It's worth it to pay a little more elsewhere....
