Looking at a monitor on ubid.com, it's very cheap and I've seen them on there before (same model, a week or two ago).

I tried reseller ratings and they have a rating of about 2, most of the complaints seemed to be overcharging shipping on small items. Anyone here hav experience with them? I don't want to spend 100$ to ship a monitor.

thanks in advance

Do they just overcharge shipping on lower priced items? Has anyone had them charge high shipping for large things (IE monitors )

Beware of the shipping charges! They can be unbelievable. Also the can tell you after you won that the product isn't availablel

And BEWARE of this telemarketing scam!

With all that I've heard about them I'll probably never buy from them.
