    Pinballstoreonline.com looks to be a new one.

    Here's a new one. Dishshopzon.com The Wish version of a scam site. They didn't even bother to remove logos.

    This one appears to be relatively new. I didn't see it on the list. It could be. I just didn't see it.

    I stumbled upon this site today. I don't see it in the list.

    I have to say it looks like a very legit site, but I don't trust it. And, I swear I've seen pics of the physical location before. Offering discounts, save 5% by echeck, Pulp Fiction ending production soon, games appearing to be in stock, etc... all red flags.

    What do you think, ForceFlow ?
