I think I already know the answer, but do you guys think this thing is a scam?

First red flag: US TOLL FREE: 1-707-633-1707

Second red flag: No physical address.

I'll keep looking, I'm bored.

Not on www.resellerratings.com...

Not listed on BBB, those prices are too good to be true- meaning they can't be true, and no secure server when putting in personal info. I would stay clear.

Called phone number "Please leave a message."

That is ALL it said.

I looked at their source code, too.

They look like an overseas company.

Stay away.

I figured that would be the case... thanks for the reassurance.

Exactly so.

Most likely a scam to "harvest" personal info (why else would they ask for SSN and mother's maiden name!?!?). We've got a big message thread going on it over on iPodlounge:
