I was looking up prices/information for the PS3 console and happened to click on this link.

http://cherows.com/cat26.html

It basically listed PS3 80GB Brand New for 209.95 and other consoles for dirt cheap. I was wondering has anyone had any experience with this website? As I am in the market for a ps3. Anyone else have any deals to get a ps3 so far besides this the best thing I've found so far was the 20% off Dell coupon.

Well, they're in Canada and your'e in the US.

I'd bet that when you're processing your order, the price JUMPS DRASTICALLY for international shipping when you get to the final screen.

Other than that, use a CREDIT CARD, not a "debit card" or "bank card" and you can always file a dispute if they're a rip - If you have an AmEx, they're the best one for this, they're known for favoring the buyer in the same way that Paypal does.
 
To be honest, after looking through their site, I really would not trust it. It just sounds too iffy. There are too many things that don't seem right. I'd stay away if I were you.
 
Sounds too good to be true... Besides, if you're willing to jump through some hoops, why not just use the Sony credit card deal.

I did a test run: Shipping is $20.05 to CA, and they ONLY accept Moneygrams as method of payment if you're shipping to the U.S.

To seal the deal, here's a picture of their mascot:

(for those too scared by the pic to get it: it's a churro joke)

Nothing in life will come easy, especially a $200 PS3.

Yeah like as said above ^^.

There will be an official price drop soon anyways, I can feel it in my waters.
