Toolsmarkdown wouldn't load. The other looks like a scam site. "About us" page tells nothing about them other than they have a warehouse with 350,000 items with more added daily and a vast warehouse with auto conveyor to ship quickly. I'd stear clear of it.
 
Like the others - if you have a good idea what something normally is priced at and then see something like these sites - most important thing comes to mind: if it seems too good to be true, it probably is. If not an outright scam (take your money and then experience delay after delay hoping you write it off and forget about it) they can also drag their feet on shipping and then ship you something (anything - a cat toy perhaps) so they have tracking information for the order they can show in case of credit card disputes , claiming they shipped it and it was delivered to you so YOU must be scamming THEM..... (especially in the case of Paypal, or ebay, for example)

So, I am very wary of buying from newly discovered "discount" bargain websites , and even new websites where prices seem in line, but seem to have plenty "in stock" where regular places are all showing "out of stock" or "backordered".
