Has anyone ever shopped at the online store Gate Play? I have never heard of them.

I saw an out of print expansion being sold below MSRP and wanted to see if anyone knew if the site was a scam. I am going to pay by credit card and read the terms of service, but don't want to have to bother with charge backs if I am not their first victim.

their site doesn't even use (valid) https. i wouldn't, at least not online.

Yeah this is a huge red flag for me. If they can’t be bothered to pay the meager SSL fees they certainly don’t value other important aspects of their business.

Looks like an older site that has fallen into disrepair. All the items I've checked are listed as "sold out" once I click on them.
