puresoundshop.com???

Post by poordad »

Has anyone had experience with this web site http://www.puresoundshop.com" target="_blank. Seems like prices including some big names are unreal. So I usually figure if it sounds to good to be true it probably is. Thanks

It is a scam site. For instance:

http://www.puresoundshop.com/product/?id=1028545" target="_blank

a NEW B&S for $999? Most Chinese horns don't even come that cheap now.

Same tuba (lacquer) at WWBW is $8,737. http://www.wwbw.com/BS-3103-Series-4-Va ... 95050.wwbw" target="_blank

I'd stay away.

Indeed.

Their street address doesn't exist. The street appears (on Google Earth) to be in a rental neighborhood, and the house numbers give out four blocks before where this address would be.

Everything seems to max out at $999...


Also gotta love the "Confucius say..." message at the bottom of some of the listings haha
