    Awesome Deal on a 680, but I Doubt It!

    I can't believe this deal on the BEST 680 GTX out there - the Palit 4GB one... double the memory of the stock 2GB one. Has anyone bought from these guys before?

    See: http://noise.winbootsugg.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=1878&offer_id=B007TG9SLK

    You're welcome to be a guinea pig and buy this! Just tell us how it turns out!

    Last time I bought counterfeit Rolex watches from China and they were a ripoff; they did not look like their web pics. They even ignored my emails for an RMA retrun. Then I called my VISA card and they did a chargeback, - so I got my money back. They finally talked to me and gave me a return shipping address, and also they requested me to cancel the chargeback but I refused saying I didn't trust them. So I spent $28 shipping it back to China and after 2 months the watch package came back to me never claimed. So I guess the company did not want to pick these counterfeit watches from Customs or maybe they'd get in trouble. So now I got FREE counterfeit watches! And then later on they went out of business, as these counterfeit watch sellers get busted.

    Do you think it might be a counterfeit Palit 4GB 680?

    I sure think Noise WB is a scam, since they're from China. Price seems to good to be true, too. But they are not in that scam free site's ban list.
