    That's certainly an auction where'd you'd wanna pay the optional PayPal "insurance" fee on.

    He probably steals them from all of the EB's that has pissed him off.

    I bought one, payed with pay-pal , a credit card , and buyer protection. They sent me a Delivery Confirmation # and its on its way. Should be here by Friday. I'll update on if it was as described.
    They said they bought a crate deal and it had 11 new xboxs on it.

    There's no way.
    XBOXes come in boxes of three's
    and the markup on prices are VERY slim.
    Even if he were to buy them wholesale from Microsoft,
    he'd still be losing money at that price.

    Not from Microsoft, you can get crates from Wal-Mart , Circuit City , etc. They are customer returns that are sold to wholesalers "as is".
    SOmetimes they have unopened new items on them.

    Seems like all the systems never arrived, yet the smaller items did.

    They sent me a confirmation # Monday. When I checked today it said it was delivered in TENNESSEE. I live in Florida . So it was a bogus # . Now they won't respond to my e-mails.
    Oh well , I've contacted pay-pal and my credit card, so i'll get my money back in 30-60 days.

    Phone # is dissconnected and E-mail account is closed.

    I have had 10 people e-mail me with the same stuff.

    Oh well , I knew it , just glad I did pay-pal with protection.
