www.tinydeal.com / www.tinydealdirect.com

Anyway know if they sell hacked players? The prices are very good, to good to be true.

Their ebay feedback wasn't so good (some ppl had battery and other problems on their mp4) but not hacked memmory problems... (I haven't read the whole feedback tho)

Is it safe to buy MP4 players from there?

Thanks!

Hmmm. Those prices are really low. Comparable to wholesale. I'd be extremely suspicious. Of course the only way to be sure is to buy one. Pick one of the cheaper (>$30) models so if you get burned it won't hurt too much...

p.s. They might make up on the price with outrageous shipping charges, you'll have to go through the ordering process to see that

p.p.s. -OK, Shipping is FREE! Yikes! I don't know what to say. Guess I'll give 'em a try and see for myself!

Yes, prices seem to be too low. But I don't think that it's impossible to sell them for that price. Some members here (I'v seen 2 people) that said that they got genuine 4Gb players from Tinydeal direct. I would like to order one 1Gb or 2Gb, cant decide lol. They awnser to mails and so on, so they seem to be legit. Well hopefully they are.

Don't be suspicious (lol, you KNOW I had to post on a board about tinydealdirect. I'm a notorious supporter of them). I bought from them when they used to have a store on eBay with no problems, so I don't see why you should have any problems if you buy directly from their site. The way I see it, they can afford to charge less because they don't have to pay all the eBay listing and final value fees and are totally independent. Plus, they probably get the players for like $5 or something. They're making a profit regardless. So go ahead and buy an mp4 player from them. Amazing prices, and I still have all of the ones I bought from them (4 in total)

Now that I'm looking through their site, their prices ARE ridiculously low! A 4gb player for $42? Back in the day (last year), I could barely get a 1gb player for that. Looks a tad suspicious. I trust the company, but I'd contact them to verify the actual capacity and ask what enables them to sell for such a low price. Wow, their prices have really dropped!

Yes, that's what I'm talking about. They dont list more MP4s on their eBay acount. Maybe they sold genuine players first and now hacked ones? I really want to buy one, don't want to get a hacked one though xD (the prices make me droll lol)

As they awnser to mails, maybe I should mail them the link to this thread so they can post something that can verify that they only sell genuine players? or something like that. My idea is pretty stupid I guess. lol

Well, I found this site here: http://www.resellerratings.com/store/TinyDeal_Direct.

It only has one review though so that's not much to go by.

If you are going to buy from them here is what I think you should do to try to cover yourself:

* Ask them straight up, why are their prices so cheap?

* Ask them if it's a true, geniune 4GB player.

* Ask them what their refund or replacement policy is. Will you have to pay for shipping to send it back if it's faulty or has hacked memory?

* Finally, mention to them about this site. Tell them that this site has about 18,000 dedicated members and that when you buy from them, you will be putting a review about Tiny Deal Direct on this site about the player.

Hopefully that will give you something to go back on. How will you be paying? Previously by credit because at least then you can back track it and claim a refund should you have any problems or not get the player.

Hope that helps.

Funny, in looking around for info on Tinydeal, I stumbled across their website tracker. http://extremetracking.com/open?login=tinydeal
Shows a definite spike in traffic on Monday! ;-) With the highest % of visitors being from Brazil?
