    180 PS3s stolen

    Ouch, someone is in for a profitable Christmas. Incidently, remember those 1000 Xbox 360s that were stolen in an armed robbery in Lichfield. Well, there is currently a number of Xbox 360s for sale in my local bargain pages for £110 each...hmmmm.

    Premium or Core?

    If they're premium grab me 10 @£110 and I'll give you the BACS payment

    Maybe I'm too honest for my own good, but my first reaction was, why didn't you shop them to the cops?

    Way too honest, my first reaction was get them to me to sell on eBay or sell them on eBay yourself

    Hmm..a PS3 for sale as well, £1200. Surprise they are letting them advertise, the 360s must be from the robbery, surely.

    The Xbox 360s are all core, unwanted gifts, still sealed. (They haven't even took them out of the wrapping?). I've got no idea whether the robbery was premium or cores stolen. I haven't got the mag in front of me, someone just phoned me to tell me.

    Could be genuine I suppose.

    Ebay lost the moral high ground a long time ago! They have done little to stem the Nigerians and petty criminals on there and also the trade in event tickets.

    I avoid it like the plague, its a shame but if you don't police something enough this is what happens.

    And it will fit in perfectly with the other 500 that were made and are also on eBay.
