I can’t believe this isn’t a scam. Anyone know this place? This isn’t Neptune in Boulder.

I've seen similar pages for Arcteryx, Norrona etc. Don't let them play with your feelings

That’s weird, I’ve been to the website a few times with no alarms.

I emailed the real Neptune about it. They are aware and have alerted authorities to no avail.

If you go to their actual web page, the only Rustler 10 I see has a listed price of $799. They may be legit, but the webpage accessed through telemarkboards doesn't seem legit.

Who knew Philadelphia was an AI hub -- maybe when it's sunny?
But, like he says:
It's always good to be cautious.

I'm not aware of links to problematic stuff regarding the conversation, however, I can say Neptune is an upstanding source for gear. I primarily shop directly with them at their Boulder, Colorado location but have also dealt with them through phone etc orders and have always been pleased. I have and will continue doing business with them.
