Has anyone ever heard of/bought from 'electronicscult.com'?

Question

They have great prices on electronics, but they only accept wire transfers- no credit cards. This makes me very cynical to buy. Any thoughts?

Answer 1

Looks like a scam. Website registered in April of 2008, wire transfers for all payments under 10,000 and free shipping combined with extremely low prices (so their business plan is to make money by losing money?).

There is the remote possibility that it's legit, but everything on there screams "SCAM!".

Bottom line, there is NO protection for the buyer using a wire transfer at all, should anything go wrong you have no recourse other than the goodwill of the seller. I'd recommend giving these guys a miss altogether.
