He does this with Ps2's and XBox. He doesn't really say you're getting anything and look at his feedback.

If someone actually bids on this, they deserve every bit of misfortune that comes their way.

He has not completed a sale for those items that resulted in a positive feedback, so what do people expect? This is an obvious attempt to hide what he is really "selling" which is probably no more than "information" as to where to get a cheap game system. I doubt that is worth $125. :/

Look at some of his past auctions' bidders. All of them have low f/b. That's too bad, I hate to see people get taken that way-but if you're paying $100+ for "information", then you probably deserve it....

I agree. It's apparent that these people did not check his rating before placing a bid. That's the first thing I look at before bidding... even with sellers I've done good business with before. C'mon, the item description is barely over one line long. That in itself is a caution flag because any intelligent human being should ask questions. One line of item description is a piss poor auction IMO.
The people that fell for this scam shouldn't be pissed off. This should be a valuable learning experience for them. I say let the seller continue his scam, but let's not call it a scam. I prefer to call it "Educating the Ridiculously Naive" >)
