Far and wide I will find 'em and I ride 'em
Bricks and mortar get my licks just for kicks
AD or authorized I don't analyze
Retail, wholesale never fail
Online or offline, I find I don't redefine
Too big to fail or yard sale they all hale
Run or hide just for fun deals I find

Update on more Fruugo feedback from TrustPilot.
Still POOR with 2 stars, but some recent positive reviews. (45% Excellent vs 35% Bad - lowest score)
https://www.trustpilot.com/review/fruugo.com

Seems they fulfill from various countries, so delay in shipping and lack of communication appear to be main complaints.
But still tread cautiously, unless we hear from someone with direct experience.

Anyone heard of NYC Mode? https://www.nycmode.com/about-nycmode/about-us/

Site is showing Timex, Casio, G Shock. Looks like a clothing / lifestyle company? Address shows as generic warehouse place on Google.

[Edit] Another photo shows a basic retail store. They have some relevant Facebook activity and "nothing bad" I can find online. They have a deal I'm interested in tonight but won't mention it since I can't vouch for the company (Cyber Monday discount applies once in shopping cart.)

Reposting some great resources for checking prices / finding out if something is a deal that were listed by [mention]yinzburgher[/mention]

Run a search on Google Shopping. Next lowest price shows $283.

Check current Amazon prices. A few listings. The lowest is $296.

Check historic Amazon prices. A few different entries but the lowest recorded is $229.

Check current eBay listings. Click the button for buy it now and check the box for new w/ tags. Lowest non-CWS price is $251.

Check eBay sold listings for the past 90 days. Click the Advanced button. Then select the Sold Listings box and make sure New is checked too. Lowest shown is $250 which is surprisingly on the higher side for this model. This is normally your second most important search.

One of the most overlooked searches is right here. If you're on Tapatalk, switch to the site. Come to this thread and go up to the search bar FOR THIS THREAD ONLY and type SRP775. You'll see it was going for $216 from BillyTheTree earlier this year.

Sometimes I also search 2018 prices at the old place but it's a pain. Also, I didn't include any store demos or refurbished or anything other than New w/ box and tags in the searches above.
