    Has anyone ever heard of this website.

    They're advertising a 17" Macbook Pro for €420 on gumtree.

    http://www.gumtree.ie/dublin/35/61282535.html

    Sounds way too good to be true but possibly macbooks falling off chinese production lines??????

    Anyone heard anything about em.

    Western Union money transfer as payment method?

    Hotmail e-mail address?

    Run, run a mile.

    Do people really need to ask questions about sites/sellers like this?

    Why in the world would someone legit be selling a macbook for elss than half price?

    Use your brain ffs.

    Yeah, that 17 inch MBP is almost 1/5 of the actual price. lol. Even if they did "fall off the back of a truck", nobody would sell them that cheap. Tbh anyone who is stupid enough to fall for this deserves what they get.
