Invalid item, what was it? Sounds like the scam of selling a photo of the item. Can anyone clarify?

Yeah, that's what it was. Basicaly it was a normal looking auction for a laptop -- had a pic, nice description, what was included, etc. And then, in added information on the bottom of the auction (in other words, NOT part of the original auction!) he added in smaller font "you are bidding on a picture of the laptop and not the laptop itself".

A lot of people bid on it and so they must have all missed that one line. I guess the seller also realized what it was too late, left the negative, and reported him to EBay. I do like that comment about the photo of the check, though!
