Is this website legit? - Kristen - 04-28-2014 04:20 AM
Has anyone used the website cheapiphone5sonline.us? I just bought a brand new iPhone from them yesterday for $33 which sounds kinda fishy. Is this legit or is it a scam?
Fuck you
I'm not stuck up, Zach.

Just look at the link and figure it out, its not rocket science.

I'm not sure, but if something seems to good to be true, then it usually is.

Really, I'm afraid it might have a wind up key...
Trying not to comment on your judgment...5Cs are going for $99 when bundled with a $1200 cell service contract, unlocked an iPhone5 is more than 10X the prices shown on the site, there's little logic to the relative pricing, a 64 gig. costs 15 cents more than a 16 gig.
The site is only 8 days old!
I could not find any Contact Us link, have you tried logging into your account?
Again, buying with a credit card or paypal provides some buyer protection against non delivery, debit cards or Western Union payments would be pretty much lost.
I can't even imagine any Chinese Windows phone substitutes that are sometimes delivered coming close to those prices.
Although the registration uses a Texas address, another site they appear to own is registered to a Chinese address.

If it seemed fishy it probably is. Look before you leap. Good luck with it.

Don't get mad when someone gives you a legit answer, it was definitely a scam. Just look at the website name. Anything with a name like that is usually a scam, sorry. Use trusted sites, and maybe not be so stuck up might help.

It's a fake site. You didn't buy a phone from them
I've reported to my sister and law at Apple who said their legal department is going to get that site shut down within the next 2 weeks as it's an illegal site

I was wondering if you got that phone yet and how it is working?
