How I got the CC laptop for $199 without AOL

I paid with a Visa Gift Card which works like a credit card with $300 balance on it to pay for the $199 laptop and then I used the remaining balnce on the Visa Gift Card at BB on Black Friday. So now AOL can't charge me on the card

 

EDIT: I never gave my address or social security number. I'm in college so I gave them my dorm's phone # and on the CC computer it shows up as a different address.

 

EDIT: ok its scarying me after reading the replies. i'm going to call AOL to change my card number. But I don't get it there was no contract that I had to sign. I'll ask to see if I can cancel.

I hope no collection agencies will be calling you this Xmas! I mean I hope it works out for you, but don't hold your breath.

While you may think its okay to advocate outright fraud (because that is exactly what you are doing), I don't think this is what GottaDeal is about.

 

You signed a contract and now you are hoping that AOL/CompUSA cannot find you to make you pay the amount stipulated in the contract.

 

Go away.

Oh ok sorry. but thats how I paid, but that wasn't what the card was really for I had it since my birthday since October so it wasn't just I got the card to purposely get the laptop. I'll call AOL to change my card number. Anyway still a great deal even with $14.95 a month which cost to final price of laptop $479. Does anyone know if its only $14.95 or $14.95 plus tax?

Yes, be sure to keep us up to date on how your *call* with AOL goes :squint:

 

It was never a great deal at $479. That is why they had so many left over the following day.
