Angry Is BuyNowstoreusa.com legit

I thought this site was legit, and ordered a product from them back on December 3. They accepted Visa for payment, but now are telling me they only accept AMEX and will have to resubmit my order at a much higher price than was originally available. Their 800 number answers with an automated voice that says 'hello, goodbye', and customer inquiries generally go unanswered through there e-commerce site (hosted).

Dear boatman80

Welcome to this forum.
A search about BuyNowstoreusa gave no bad records about them.
As you say they did not accept Visa and they prefer AMEX but with different price. It is your turn to acceept it or not.
Difference in price may be from a higher bank commision to their transactions. The strange is why they stoped to accept visa (may be their contract with Visa stoped).

Default Site appears to have shut down

Here for Christmas, gone today. This site appears to have vanished. I hope noone was scammed or encounters any fraud as a result.

www.buynowstoreusa.com
This domain name has just been registered.
That means is on again. I just check it.

But does not work at all for many reasons mentioned when someone is clicking "Why is displayed"

I found from a post about them a phone number.
the phone number is 1-800-858-8303 but I am not sure if is still working
