#2I'm confused at what this is supposed to be? A bunch of products have the wrong image and the image that's shown is not nearly worth what it cost.

I am speculating that it is possibly a money laundering site, was hoping others could chime in.

#4What I've found so far :
-Most prices are absurdly high and end with 3
-Some items have reasonable prices (e.g https://glymart.com/products/a-1-telecom-mopar-external-spea... )
-The domain was registered recently and never mentioned on any other website before your post (how did you find it ?)
-The first item has a wrong image, but all the others seem OK.
-Terms of use and privacy policy include an adress in Vietnam. It isn't clear whether this is a real adress.
-The same item is sold twice at vastly different prices : https://glymart.com/products/yuneec-typhoon-h-hexacopter-pro... and https://glymart.com/products/yuneec-typhoon-h-hexacopter-pro...
The website was obviously generated automatically : it has over 400 pages of products. I think the goal was to sell products available elsewhere at a premium, and order them as needed. Or maybe there are no prodcts and they just want someone to buy one to try to understand what's happening :P. My first theory was that the prices were not converted properly, but assuming that they are in Vietnamese Dong instead of USD leads to absurdly low prices.
In any case, that's a weird online store.
Edit : their contact form includes an adress an phone number, both located in California. It seems unlikely that those are their real adress and phone number.

Very interesting. Coworker of mine found this site while googling for refrigerators, popped up as a typical search result. We saw the address in California too, some random residence, really makes one wonder what is going on here.

I found this site via shopping for refrigerators also. Price very cheap. Contact# is a cell w a full vmail box. They list bestbuy as a contact for installation. Called Best Buy they will not price match & are not officially partnered w site. Additionally they could not confirm whether or not they have done any installs for the company. I have emailed the site, waiting on a reply. I noticed a discrepancy in cu ft stats from search to actuall site. Plus they fail to provide any model # details or product specs. Haven't moved on purchase yet still doing home work but at this point I'd say "buyer beware"
