I dont know guys. $285 for a Xbox 360 Prem. Package is pretty damn low. They are selling EASY for 325 without shipping on eBay. If it is legit let's all start guys! We'll get rich. But if it's not we will get sued, and lose hundreds, possibly thousands. errr.

anyone got any info on him ?Spoke to Herald Masih (owner of Hitech Stop) on Monday (8/21) and discussed about buying 5 ipods 4gb for 175 each per unit. Total for 5 ipods was $885 including s/h. I took the offer, faxed him my driver's license and Visa credit card. Next day, he called me to verify the order and slapped me with 2.9% surcharge of the total price which now amounted to 918 something. I went ahead thinking I still have a little profit left for resale. I was told that the ipods would be arriving by Saturday (8/26) at the latest via USPS priority. Much to my anticipation, the item did not come, I immediately called him and he said it was sent out to the wrong address ( ouch) and he'd process my refund. He e-mailed me the refund number that same day.

So someone else just got $900+ worth of Ipods free! :shock:anyone got any info on him ?Spoke to Herald Masih (owner of Hitech Stop) on Monday (8/21) and disccussed about buying 5 ipods 4gb for 175 each per unit. Total for 5 ipods was $885 including s/h. I took the offer, faxed him my driver license and visa credit card.

I went ahead thinking I still have a little profit left for resale. I was told that the ipods would be arriving by Saturday (8/26) at the latest via USPS priority. Much to my anticipation, the item did come in, immediatelly caled him and he said it was sent out the wrong address ( ouch) He'd process my refunds and e-mailed me the refund number that same day.
My bottom line is, if he's a genuine a supplier as he thinks he is, then he's definitely not reliable. I will not deal with him!!
I hope you guys can learn from this:)

Here's my story: Last Monday I called and ordered 25 4GB Nanos and was told they would ship the same day. He called back later Monday and said he was over his merchant account limit for the day but would charge me Tuesday. I asked if he would go ahead and ship but he said it was too late. On Tuesday he called and said that he had a fresh batch of iPods due in on Wednesday with newer production dates and would rather send those to me. I told him I didn't mind the older production run so I would have them before the weekend. He assured me he would ship Wednesday and I would have them Friday. I called back Wednesday and was told that the delivery driver was on his way to the post office and I would have them Friday. I didn't expect to get them until Saturday but they didn't show up even then. I got a call this morning letting me know that his guy had messed up and put the wrong label on my box of 25. I asked if that meant I was going to get someone else's box and he kind of stumbled around before saying I might get a box of 5. He is going to refund the entire purchase price.So someone else just got $900+ worth of Ipods free! :shock:anyone got any info on him ?Spoke to Herald Masih (owner of Hitech Stop) on Monday (8/21) and disccussed about buying 5 ipods 4gb for 175 each per unit.
