Just looking for some opinions on what you would do on purchasing an item online that the price of the item is over 80% less than the going price of that item online.
Why I'm asking for your knowledge and experience is I'm in the market for a new snow blower. When searching online markets for that item I can get a couple for around $80 verses other prices from $600 to $1200.
These are brand new blowers and is exactly the same kind of blower others are advertising for sale but at ~90% less in price.
Would you buy this item or would not because of it being a scam?
Some years ago, I needed a trash pump and order one online that was about a quarter the cost of any other one I could fine. It has been excellent purchase and have had not one issue with that pump. It was from some company that I have not heard of. I may have got lucky though from not getting CC info stolen etc..
What are your thoughts and concerns you would have in purchasing a too good to be true price/item? If you did buy this underpriced item would there, be anything you would do to assure this is not fraudulent purchase?
