I was looking at shopping services online for computers the other day and came across a Sony model that was $1999 at Sony and close to that elsewhere and only $1250 at vencoelectronics.com. Big difference, so I looked at Venco to see what's the catch. Reading their terms and conditions is a strange experience. They do not accept credit cards, despite the fact that they have VISA and Paypal pictured at the bottom of their opening screen. You have to send cash via Western Union or another mentioned service. They do not specify how much of the original purchase price they'll refund and are vague about when they'll ship (after they have received your cash, though) and when they'll refund. They do not have a phone number or address, because they want to "keep prices down by not running a store or paying people to man phones."
Scary.
