it might be a scam or is. 

Precisely why I moved it. It doesn't belong in Hot Deals at the moment.

So I thought this was sketchy kinda... but my friend actually tried it (his bank backs him up if its a scam), and it worked.

I'll post it, buy at your own risk, but it seems decent?
The prices are good anyway, and it's local.

Also has that green secure thingy on google chrome.

They have an authorized https certificate (Does not matter much) and it seems like they have an authorized gateway. Seems way to cheap though. Try activating it, as I guess it may be flagged as stolen.

Don't put too much credit on to the site using a secure certificate and it being green padlock. The certificate is from Let's Encrypt which are free and the validity period is very short, 01/03/2017 - 30/05/2017.

 

A website being secure does not mean the site itself is safe, only the connection to it. It could be securely ripping you off.
