any feedback on closeoutnj ? they recently had a "deal" on $800 MacBooks, so I would like some reviews on them before shipping such a high value item.

Where are they located? Is there any information about who runs it?
Nope. It’s anonymous.

Are there any gains from doing buying groups besides for getting credit card points?

Did you get this defensive because you are affiliated with a bg?

is this an issue only when account is used for personal & BG, or even if solely BG?

why would amazon care if their own gift cards are used for BG purchases?

Don’t know but will tell you one that doesn’t.

In light of all the financial news swirling around we just want to assure everyone that none of the banks that we use are affected by the recent developments.

After the fed’s announcement, if your BG is using banking liquidity issues to excuse not paying you, you can be pretty sure they’re lying.
