    In 6-12 weeks, expect a spike in amount of junk mail you receive.

    The website doesn't seem very legit at all. First thing is the design (reeeallly?), horrible user interface and using a premade script (up to par with other fraudulent websites). Second, they only accept bank transfer or Western Union. Third, they've only been in "business" a little over 2 months (Whois-d the domain). Fourth, I'm too lazy to compare their prices to other merchants.

    Unfortunately, I didn't bother to look around before I signed up myself. They're probably going to end up selling our information. :rolleyes:
