Found this ebay auction that looked unbelievable....and read it all...apparantly some haven't cuz it's up to 38$...I asked the seller if he was just selling the demo discs and all he said to me was "corect" (loved the spelling)

At least he didn't tuck it down in a really small font in a bunch of mumbo jumbo about shipping. Demo should be in the title, but it's his auction and he didn't do anything that deceptive.

Only about 8 lines of text to read. Yet people bid over 40.00 on this crap. Do people really think that they are going to get all those games for that low of a price? Wouldn't that tip you off that something is not quite right? Specially since this was a aucton tht was viewed alot. It's not like you stumbled upon something that no one else had seen. That makes it hard to feel sorry for the winning bidder! x_x

You know, i have those same two demo discs...if i had no conscience i'd do an auction just like this guy's!!
Dirty pool, man.
This makes me wonder if he gets the money at all. I mean, if sailorsquared read all of it after he made the bid and won, does he still send money?
Almost makes me wish I could see his face when he opened up the box to see his new demo's.....

Or the bidder might have been a joking bidder who wanted to joke around in a bid war. Only problem is his feedback isn't 0, and he has 100% feedback....sad. :(

How would eBay / PayPal rule over this if a complaint were made? (Which it no dount will be)
