Apparently they have amazing deals on the PBooks G4 12" 1 GHz @ $ 1,299.00
http://shop.vendio.com/macshopz/item...010/index.html

Been posting on these boards for over 3 years now and have never heard of that company...

Also the wholesale reductions make me very nervous too.

If I were you, I would be very careful in my dealings with them, or even better avoid them entirely...

Peace,

Marc

Actually someone posted about this recently, may be worth a search...

I remember people speculating about whether the machines were refurbs or old models or something...

The mailing address is in Burnaby (pretty much vancouver), Canada. However, it says that the hardware is shipped from somewhere in Washington State... kinda seems weird

Anyone have any word on this store? My roommate bought something from them (with a wire transfer, the idiot...) and apparently now the storefront is down. Any suggestions?

Ouch... how about... he just got cheated out of his money. Well... if it'll make him feel better maybe, just look at it as a donation to the rich. But yea, maybe it's real and he'll get his stuff...
