Yeah looks a bit dodgy. How can another company sell the same product as easybuy2k the 'exclusive' distributor, but £10 cheaper!   huh.gif

Yeah, easybuy is the only one that has rights to sell the matrix.

With EB's affiliate program, other companies can purchase and sell the chips. Which would put them in the same boat as us.

Sounds strange that they can have such low price if they got the chips through EB.

Two things:

An affiliate program means that people get a percentage of the sale when a customer buys a product, and arrives at the sellers site via a link on the affiliat-ees site. So that has nothing to do with selling the product itself, especially not $10 cheaper.

2. If you search for www.simplymods.com on Google you fill find NOTHING.. nothing at all.. not even in news groups... I think this is very fishy..

I think you have to register with the site for people to be able to find your site. Thats why the search results are different on different sites


Thats bullshit, man !!

you can register on some search enigines, but generaly give it long enough and the engine will find your site. if these guys aren't on google its probably a relativly new site, it is cheap ( not too cheap though ) and intresting though, I mailed them to see what they say about who they are / shipping times.


its not technically an affiliate program, they could easily get these prices if they bought in bulk, and shipped to the UK the same way ( especialy if they evade the VAT somehow)

still a little skeptical though

Dear Nutt,



Thank-you for your email.

I understand your reasons for being cautious as there are alot of bad companies out there, we are not one of them!

We have been trading for 3 years, in original video cd movies at our old domain:- http://www.simplyvideocd.com

The market was a little slow so the site was slowly run down at the end of last year and further thoughts went into a new project, Hence, Simplymods.com

As you might notice, we have adopted a Simply approach on all our businesses (Simplymods,simplyvideocd).

We have been trading in Modchips for 4 months now and have a steady customer database.

Our business name is Simplyshopuk, we have help our business account for 3 years with Hsbc in Coventry.

All our credit / debit cards are processed by Worldpay (http://www.worldpay.com)

Worldpay is a hard credit / debit card acceptance account to get, and every company under goes alot of investigations to ensure they are legit, If we weren't Worldpay would be the 1st to take action.

Companies who use credit card companies such as ccnow.com are the 1's you need to be careful of, as you could set up a account in 10 minutes, and selling stuff in 15.

CCnow does no checks on there customers, hence the opening for fraud.

We have been through all the checks, and have been successful for 3 years, customer service is our number 1 priority.

We are expecting the Matrix around the middle / end of next week, and are keeping all customers who have pre-ordered upto date on this as we learn more.

No credit / debit card will be charged until your order is shipped, so you may cancel at anytime.The Matrix is being sold on a 1st come 1st served basis so pre-ordering would be the better option at present.

Wishing you best interests at all times,

W.Morris

Sales

What is your guys situation with this chip? I would buy from you as you have a good price, but I can’t say I’’ve ever heared of you guys before, when did your site start!



Convince me that you are legit :-) !



Also, when do you expect to deliver by if I ordered today?



Thanks!

Mike Nutt






well, thats good enough for me, besides, barclaycard are pretty good at returning your money if you don't recive the goods.

Well got an e-mail back from the guy this morning and he thinks that they will have the chips by then end of next week.

So dpendant on what chip I buy I will let you know.

There not too far away from me anyway if things go wrong.

You lot seem to worry too much.  If I buy anything on my CC and I get ripped off over the internet, then my card gets refunded and my bank go after the people fo the money.
