Some people end up paying $60, some pay $70, and some pay $80. Sometimes there is tax, and sometimes there isn't. If that isn't shady, I don't know what is... But that's just my opinion... I wouldn't shop there, some people would. It's your money, do with it what you like :D

But if you want to buy from an upstanding citizen, and loooooooooong-time RS member, and save a few bucks in the process, and don't mind waiting a week, then please PM me ;)

im hopefully waiting for a satisfactory product/transaction!

From my experiences dealing with ComPC, if you pay cash, no tax. If you pay debit, then you get tax. Not sure about credit card.

I got 2 R4's from the guy..i admit he's a little shady but you can't really beat his price....i got both my r4's for 50 bucks with no tax.....SkinnyPupp just because you can't beat his price doesn't give you the right to talk down the guy. Dealing with anyone is a risk now adays.....

You just said he's shady, then said I have no right to say he's shady. I know he's shady, and it has nothing to do with not wanting to match his price (whatever that may be, it ranges, and now $50 is the new lowest I've seen it... every time someone brings up that store, the price is different :lol nope not shady at all :lol)

Anyway, you say they're shady, I know they're shady, everyone knows they're shady. Whether you want to give them your hard-earned money, up to you. Nothing I can (or want) to do about it. If someone wants a Chinese version R4, I can probably lower my price by about $5.

Razor Ramon HG 05-11-2007 07:24 PM

Everyone has their own definition of shady, but I don't think they're shady at all. I don't even know why you guys think COMPC is shady at all.

I heard there is a shady place at Crystal, and the price they give people ranges from $67.80 to $90.40 CAD (incl tax) depending on what day it is. Then you have to buy a MicroSD, so add an extra $20 or so.
And who even said that their prices are different every visit? Everytime an RS member went there, the price has always been consistently even, or lower than the prior visit (price drops). There has always been no tax, one year warranty on everything, and a recipe. I've probably spent over $500 dollars there between me and a friend and the owner (Kenneth) is always willing to help either on MSN or on the phone.

How is that shady when the store owner personally gives you customer support and will exchange/refund (I know because one of my SC-DS broke before) you with a legit reason? All you got on them being shady is that they don't file taxes, and on an assumption that they are shady from other people. Hell, I rather have them not charge me taxes at all, especially if the taxes I am paying are not going back to the government. You probably got COMPC confused by another store (there are a few in Crystal Mall that also sell these sort of things).

I don't mind you going around recommending people to buy from you, but you don't have to go around saying other stores are shady for no good reason.

Hondaracer 05-11-2007 07:36 PM

haha can u honestly read your own post and NOT file them under a shady buissness?

honestly, i'd rather order 20 R4DS from Skinnypupp and throw 19 of them in the garbage then step foot inside crystal mall and have to crush some hongers skull who looks at me crooked :cool:

Hahahaha, it's like the time my black friend went to Japan, and some of the people there wanted pictures with him.

Fafine 05-11-2007 07:51 PM

compc guy was pretty chill though he had a fob accent had a hard time understanding whats his saying other then that haha he was pretty flexable with the price bought my r4+1gig for 72bucks

Razor Ramon HG 05-11-2007 07:58 PM

Did you mention the RS thing? I'm not sure if he's still running that (been a few months). But it was 70 bucks last time I talked to him for any Slot 1 + 1GB card.

picked one up today for $70

SkinnyPupp 05-14-2007 01:14 AM

Can someone who bought a R4 there tell me what distributor label is on the cover? It should be either TwinStar or Three Dragons or something... usually it's a sticker on the corner of the front of the box.

TIA!

SHARKY! 05-14-2007 01:11 PM

Does it really matter where people bought their R4? As long as everyone is happy with what they got then so be it.

Sky_2000 05-14-2007 02:36 PM

Skinny i said that you shouldn't down talk the guy, he is just trying to make a living just like you! You're hating on him because he can offer a product for less then you can. Quit your crying and get over it.

SkinnyPupp 05-14-2007 06:09 PM

I'm not fucking hating on anyone, I am just trying to get the best deal possible.

And in case you forgot, my price is still lower than theirs.

Please someone just tell me if it says TwinStar or Three Dragons! Is that so hard?

Hondaracer 05-14-2007 08:55 PM

How come you got another one? Something happen to your first one?

SkinnyPupp 05-14-2007 09:24 PM

He got it for his friend, and values customer service, and he saved about $5 on each one (since that store isn't actually selling them for $60 as some people claim)

shawn79 05-14-2007 09:50 PM

Been using "Beup" for a pretty long time. Very good program, and makes excellent use of the touch screen :)
