I was thinking about getting some beyblades, and this website sells them for pretty cheap, but I'm wondering if this place is legitimate? The site is http://www.toycup.com.

hmmm. well this is weird

that's their little badge thingy... looks so fake to me

just to be careful, I recommend that you don't buy them from there

but, it's hard to tell, I mean i checked out the checkout page, and it looked normal and stuff. But like I said, I can't tell. The onyl suspicious thing was that really funky badge. And on the main page it was crunched up a bit

Yeah. I noticed that too. I decided to get my new beyblade stuff from a different site, anyways. ^^; Now, I need to decide whether to get a Tornado Balance or Tornado Attack beyblade stadium. Oo
Like my new mouth-less smilies?

The best site for finding information about online stores that I have found is: http://www.resellerratings.com/index.pl .

They have reviews of both products and online stores, so there is a good chance that they will have the info that you need to make your decision.

Beyblades' customizing aspect gives them more lasting value than your average toy. Every part has a purpose and a possibility, adn can be utilized in some way. I jsut need a new stadium to play the game in. I need to spring for a Japanese one, 'cause the ones made by Hasbro have weak slopes, making attack type beyblades near useless. (They smash into the walls in the Hasbro stadiums. They just go really fast in Japanese ones. Hasbro robbed 60% of the blades they make of their greatest advantage, not to mention the parts they degrade by changing their original design. >.<)
