I would say scam, the site looks shady and only has buttons for shoes??? and doesn't accept PayPal.

I don't know man looks pretty legit to me. Hurry someone order 10 of them before they miss out on this amazing deal!

 

Just kidding looked up the side. It's a scam out of China.  At the most you might get a display model with the fake CPU in it. Remember the fake i7's? Or just nothing at all.  I'm better nothing at all.
