I see these kind of auctions (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5575444864&rd=1) on eBay all the time. I just can't believe that people are bidding on (http://offer.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&item=5575444864) and paying for this shit. I suppose we'll keep seeing these kinds of auctions as long as people keep bidding on them.

BTW, here's (http://www.onethousanddollarsaday.com/restrictedformembers.htm) what a winning bidder of this auction actually gets for their money. Everyone here should now be able to complete their videogame collections with all the millions they will now be able to earn. LOL

That has got to be the ugliest color scheme for a website ever.

$1000 a day? Hmm... if I made that much money a day for nine days, Ebay is the last thing I'm thinking about. I'd venture to say I'd be sipping on a wine cooler, laid back in a deck chair on the coast of Italy.

You know how you make $1000 a day? By selling plans to make $1000 a day to people. That would be funny if that's what you got in the email after payment LOL

If you read all his crap, that's basically what it comes down to.....

EDIT: To be honest, I have mixed feelings towards this whole homebrew information products thing.

These BS 15 page e-books are just wastes of money

But at the same time, there really are people out there who know lots and lots and lots about particular subjects, and ebay gives them a marketplace where they can offer this knowledge and get paid for it. They'd get paid to have said knowledge in a job environment, so why not online?

I guess it's still an evolving product, hopefully with time the crap will get sorted out somehow or other.

There's too much bull in sites like these. Add to that the fact that it doesn't teach you anything... sigh.

I actually bought a CD off eBay once claiming to have lists of stockists in... instead I got a CD full of images for auction templates. Thankfully it was only £2, and there was a guy doing the same not long after for free, presumably to build his feedback up. Probably a scammer, but then I didn't leave him any after all that. :)

Never did use it... found it far too soulless.

Sigh.

If it "really works", Then why can't i call the people who have already bought it, Claiming it works, And ask them if it actually does?

Because it does not work, i imgine.

LOL I love auctions like that, funny stuff, at least these are pushing out the "wholesalers dream" type auctions, they come and go in cycles.

From the site:

I recommend Microsoft FrontPage

AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! @_@
