    OMG, would you go for this? (ebay scam)

    http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...112428267&rd=1

    Seems like a big fucking scam if you ask me.

    17" G4 Powerbooks for $100? Idiots.

    YOU ARE NOT BIDDING ON THE ACTUAL SYSTEM, but rather a link to a Site that allows you to purchase the G4 for $100 USD.

      I tried to auction off the sun on Ebay a few years ago.

          Yeah that's what I'm talking about. Bidding on the link to a site where you can get a Powerbook for $100. That's some scamming shit.

                I smell bullshit!!
                SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

                      Yeah. This guy had three of these auctions set up with lots of bidders on each one.

                                The site works in where you pay $100 for valuable ebook resources etc and get added to a list.


                                After x signups at $100 each, the top person on the list gets their G4, then #2 on the list gets one after x signups.

                                      People that bid on this have got be pretty retarded... Like they say, "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is"...

                                      If such a site actually existed, the seller could just pick up 10 of these laptops and then resell them for a $1000 each, and make quick $9k profit...

                                        look up alienware computers on ebay. Every other fucking auction is for some bull shit like that. I mean if bad ass computers of any brand where that easy to come across wouldnt eveyone have one??

                                            Theres the same thing going on with ipods and other electronics. It works like this: You win the auction, then you find out you have to sell 10 (or more) items in order to get yours. These people will have to do the same to get theirs. Sure its a pyramid scheme, but then so is the stock market

                                                        I've sold information for plasma screens at certain prices on ebay. Worked a treat and made some happy customers. This however doesnt seem to look so promising

                                                            Come on, the people were dumb enough to bid on the URL in the first place. You really think they wouldn't pay shipping?!

                                                              Bandwidth. It adds up, especially if he's on National Net.
