    Another stupid ebay thread

    what on earth are you supposed to bid on?

    could be a couple of hard to find jumpers (not the Noel Edemonds type!)

    I severely doubt there is going to be a 9800XT in this bundle!

    Lol, setting people up for the fall in the description, but some fool has bid on it and won, half of these are ratings scams I think myself.

    I particularly like the way the seller's made their feedback private, so you can leave feedback if you get screwed over, but no-one else can read it. Not that that's suspicious in any way, shape or form...

    Its going to be dodgy, like someone is going to send someone else a shed load of old PC Gear for the amount the bid was won for. Still, if the winner has got cash to spare then i suppose it might be worth seeing what he does get!!

    Always wondered about that phrase, as in "model" as opposed to "real" or "fully functional"

    The phrase 'Sold as Seen' is used like complete Bollox on e-bay, I think "Sold as unseen" would be a better phrase....
