Fiksu Huuto: Is it fiksu or a con?

Post by snowcelt » Mon May 18, 2009 6:06 pm

Has anybody on here had any experiences, good or bad with these inline auctions? Fiksuhuuto, senttihuuto, jne.

I'm looking to get my hands on a digi-camera cheap-cheap, but it just seems too good to be true.

Kev.

It is extremely smart. Of the guys who set those sites up, of course.

If you know anything about mathematical probabilities you should know that any camera or item bought from one of these is bound to be way more expensive than from a regular shop. There's hundreds or even thousands of persons biding on these items.

It's a lottery masquerading as an auction.

Ebay is far better

Its just online shopping, bitting, on second hand and new items

I love it, cos I live in the countryside, everything costs a car trip more on the price of the item so ebay is the business for me...

If it sounds too good to be true, it is.


For anything you don't trust, Google is your friend. Just type in whatever you don't trust followed by scam.
