Read the fine print:

Seems sort of iffy to me, but I don't know, it could be legit.

Why would you blatantly advertise a site to look like NewEgg, but NOT be NewEgg.


I'd do some reading into the company, see what people have to say.

I wouldn't. Newegg should take them to court for using Newegg's art for their own gain.

Well, seeing as that's where it takes you when you go under Newegg's "cellphone" category, I think they're OK with it.

Well, since THIS is the case...

I'd say it's fairly legit.

I found a few things about this "Simplexity" company. They seem to be sort of shady.

http://www.ripoffreport.com/Cellular...ular-bcd97.htm

http://www.complaintsboard.com/compl...y-c129028.html

But since it's on Newegg's site, I guess that makes them legit. I'd say proceed at your own risk.
