> Is this a SCAM?

This just looks like a joke to me. This guy doesn't seem like he even expects anyone to believe in or trust his site. Either that, or this is just a prank. At first, I thought this site is pretty shoddy, with font errors and such. But then at the bottom, his spelling, grammar, and spacing is so incomplete and so bad, that it doesn't seem like a scam as much as it seems like someone just playing a joke on everyone.
I mean, no one that has trouble with the English language makes this many spelling errors in one small paragraph! LOL!

I doubt the guy even took the pics on the site himself. If you look here:

You'll see that all the pix are from IPIX but hosted now from his site. Like he took them off various Ebay auctions or something.
Talk about shady. At first I was like, 'screw it...order and call up your CC company if you get hosed'....but of course, they don't TAKE credit cards.

amateuristic site, spelling mistakes, freeware mail addresses, casino stuff popups...
this IS a scam, most probably stolen gear or non-existing gear
but there will always be morons thinking this is an honest business, and so they pay 370 USD and then wait forever until they notice the website no longer exists!
I wouldn't trust this for $.01 !!

Nobody said i believed this site.
It was to good to be true, such low prices.
In Belgium the P800 is 850 Euro thats a little bit to much for me at the moment.
Anyone who has an idea where you can get cheaper P800's where people can be trusted?

Same question here... I'm in Switzerland but I wouldn't mind ordering on-line from any trustable company in Europe.

Definately a scam. Here in NYC there is a store on 17th street selling p800 for $725 including tax if you pay cash. Also, the sony ericsson site is selling them for $650 US. Buying from manufacturer is no doubt your best bet.

my personal opinion is that any "bargain" lower than 650euro for a P800 are definitely SCAMs; except of course the network operators deals (with a subscription for 1,2,3 or whatever years they want to have)
