Loads of people fall for that marketing ploy, I see that case had "62% off" aswell.

Thing is groupon usually 50% of the sale price. So the seller here is only getting €12.50.

Pigsback and all these suffer the same tricksters. I remember seeing one guy selling an item which was on dealextreme much cheaper, exact same. If he had used drop shipping with DX I think I worked out he would have earned about €4000 in just 1 day.
