Anyone know anything about the cheap prices on line for Lowrance? HDS9 Gen3 for $500.00

I might buy one for a spare if they are that cheap anywhere.

Yeah, on Amazon. It's a scam. The seller will be described as 'Just launched' or something like that and instruct the buyer to contact them via email. Now you're outside the real Amazon. They will send an email with 'special' instructions - BEWARE!

I had someone recently buy a Gen 3 7 NIB from me because he actually did follow thru with this type of transaction. Now he is out of his money and dealing with Amazon's fraud dept. It is not determined when and more importantly, if he will ever get his money back.

How scammers get their listing embedded with Amazon is a mystery to me but how Amazon, knowing this, allows their kind of posting is a bigger mystery.

There are some 'Just launched' that are legitimate. They will work inside of Amazon's normal Cart/Pay... etc. We've all heard "if it is too good to be true"... it probably is. Buyer beware.

Yes it is a scam. They want you to send them your name,address and phone number. If you go through Amazon, Amazon will send you a message that says they are deleting the order.
Amazing what some people will do to scam people.

They ask you to purchase a gift card from Amazon and use that for the purchase.
