I have been looking for a particular TV set for a while... prices fluctuating on various big name stores recently. Today I found it at the lowest price ever on a store called multizoneav - but it seemed to good to be true.
There is a legit UK company with that name, but also an offshore company using various urls (often ending .eu instead of .com or .co.uk) and I did a little more searching.
- They do NOT accept payments from normal credit cards that would offer payment protection etc
- They do NOT take orders over the phone
- Their web form to request an email inquiry bounced
- The listed UK address is also the same location as an Immigration Service bldg in London... could be a shared building of course but I for one am walking away
The old adage of 'if it seems too good to be true, then it probably is' ringing loudly in my ears. Just sharing this for any folk on here who might otherwise be fooled into a false bargain.
