I just ordered one. *After seeing on the TV ad that you can try Magic

Well the confermation email noted I am being charged 7 bucks for S&H.
It ****ed me off. *After watching the ad again, it does say 40 bucks
plus S&H, but no where are you told how much S&H cost.

So it looks like I am still going to be stuck with a S&H charge. *
I was so ****ed that I sent an email to the email address and the
address is no longer valid. *The bounce message says go here.
That is not valid either.

The email I received says ...........

scammers have to bring the food to the table , too..........sorry you
became another victim


Did you try one?


Because they seem to make it impossible to contact them, I decided to
just call my credit card company and dispute the charges before they
sent it to me. I was also not told anywhere what the S&H cost would
be.

I do sense a shady way of selling them, but the girl on the phone with
my credit card company, said she has one and she likes hers.

So I decided to wait and let them ship me one. The computer I leave
on 24/7 is a very old computer. I think I might have to get a USB 2
PCI card to make it work, but I am going to give it a try.
