That ram scam is ridiculous. Went to the highest bidder for £200. That guy selling the stuff really needs a punch.
Amazing, why the hell don't ebay stop stuff like this.
another one of his auctions ......:

Turns out it was just an XP copy when the guy got them, and if you read right a tthe bottom, muddled into the terms and conditions and not making complete sense, you will see:
'This software is a copy of the original only and no manuals and box are included but the item is well packed and tested before dispatch and thus you should own an original copy of the software to purchase the backups'.

ive reported him to ebay myself now....copied software, backups included here, is banned from being sold on ebay full stop. This guy has sold copied software on multiple occasions...some ppl really do need tobe shot imho, or at least knee-capped
followed a few lines later withIf not satisfied you can return the item back to us at your cost and we will be happy to return your money paid for the item ONLY (excluding delivery costs)
If it was possible, i wish ebay could check every auction before it goes on to the site.NO RETURNS. you must accept the terms and conditions before buying, if you don't accept the terms and conditions please don't consider of buying or bidding on this item.

I emailed the guy who bought the ram as soon as the auction had ended so hopefully he never paid out the £200. Can't see it listed amongst feedback so hopefully he got sorted.
