WholeSalePCStuff.com
Has anyone bought ms xp pro software from WholeSalePCStuff.com & if you did, did it work ok.
Are they legit. Or did I just get scammed. |

Re: WholeSalePCStuff.com
Well it looks like crap to me dude, It has a page rank of 2 which is ok but makes it look suspiciose, When you brought it did it connect to a HTTPS? if not then you were probably scammed, to check if it did just look in the address bar were it says http:// a "S" is added when its a secure connection if it is a scam i don't think they would bother with it. But say if it wasn't a fake website then what did you do with your xp pro disk? how did you install it etc?
In future always stick with mainstream online retailers, I shop at amazon mostly Last edited by JamesMCP; 12-04-2007 at 06:09 AM. |
