The best thing to do is stay away from fly-by-night mom/pop 'companies.'

This reminds me of that scam where a 15 yo set up a 'business' and _TRIED_ to rip-off a lot of people.
Always pay online with a CC.

I noticed that you keep coming back with a reply to make it seem like we're the idiots. Are you working for them? And now you're defending these scammers so people don't pay attention to these remarks and go ahead and purchase a non-existent product. How would you feel if we all got together and scammed you for something that you'd really like to get? 
Yep, you figured me out, I use to work for FreeDelivery4U.com. wow, I guess I blew my cover.

Your best bet is to contact your bank and see what they can do. And contact the FTC. But if FreeDelivery4U filed bancrupcy, there's nothing that can be done.
Thats me, not helping out

Nasfet is right, but to add to the pay by CC online, make sure its a secure site, you'll see the lock on the lower right hand corner. If you don't see it, don't use your CC.
That's me again, scamming some more people, making sure they know the difference between a secure & non-secure website...
Scam me, you'll get 2 cats in the end, TAKE EM!

The little lock on the lower right hand corner doesnt show up until you check out...just fyi.

That's Scotty & I teaming up on our new victims
PS - Feel free to scam me, I am a poor college student, so I hope you really want a beer stained L shaped couch, a king bed with a broken box spring, handed down kitchen items, and 2 cats!! Go for it!
 buh-bye

If the price is to good to be true, it probably is.
I had been looking for a Big A$$ TV for a couple of weeks. Well here comes a huge load of Sony LCD projection TV's for GREAT pricing on Ebay (FD4U). Hummm. 30 - 40% less then ANYONE else, and they are new in the box. WOW, how can I go wrong.
Vendor has 1000+ feedback on E-bay, mostly positive. (mostly small stuff thought, camera bags, tri-pods and small amount of Digital cameras. OK (?). Vendor is listed is pricegrabber - reviews are 50-50. OK, so they might be low service (typical NY reseller going for the up-sale , Hummm. #1)
Well I have a 2 Humm limit to ANY on-line purchase, and here I am considering spending $2,100 or more. They offer an 800 number, that's good. Available only m-f - OK i will wait. the auction has 4 more days.
Monday morning, just as I call the auction ends, seller pulls all large TV's. FYI, they had listed at least 80-100 large screen Sony's that weekend (May 7th - 10th), and got buy-it now bids on 80% of them (ouch).
I still have the link to TV I was considering. They had 10 available, and 'sold' 9 of them before closing it. - >
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3095503445&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1
Note, $2,100 on a $3,400 TV is hard to pass up.
Well, I did speak to someone, and they noted, we just sell those on E-bay on the weekend, try again next week. OK, for $1,300 I can wait. He also referred me to the web-site, but the price was $2,700 there, then $2,900 a day later. Add another Hummm to the running count.
The following weekend, no auctions ? Called again, no answer, no answer.
I noticed the BBB on-line icon on their web-site (with working link). They were NOT listed as a member ? Sent BBB a note to ask why, Response next day from BBB, they are not a member and the inquiry was being forwarded to legal group on trademark enfringement. Hummm (#4 now)
I added up the questions I had, and chalked it up to: TO GOOD TO BE TRUE!
The next week, E-bay ID was pulled. 3 weeks later site is gone and google took me this thread. No real suprise here, there were plenty of sign's.
Never seen the credit card trick they used, only offering to take cards many do not have - forcing more checks to be written ? Will add that to the watch list.
Still have not bought the B.A. TV, so if you know of a GOOD deal, let me know.
Sorry to those taken in by these guys. It was a tricky one, but still PLENTY OF sign's to the trouble.
Ciao,
John
