i came across this website
Buy Watches, Perfumes, Computers, Jewelry, Accessories in India - Buyatbrands.com
has anyone bought from this site?
prices seem very low compared to other websites like flipkart and yebhi
HTC One X - Android 4.0 8MP Mobile phone - Sealed Pack - Buyatbrands.com

Mixed responses at many sites. I think it would be best if you stay away.
Some comments claim a fake. Also since you are buying such a costly product would be best to stick with known names :wink:

Yeah I too agree with it.

Stay Away from this site

Just go for flipkart or Letsbuy

They both are good and trusted.
