Best eBay story ever
Seller put up for auction a PHOTO of an XBOX, which a reading comprehension-challenged bidder ran up past $800.

Looks like the work of several (or one) shill bidders.

I'm surprised they don't get kicked off Ebay. Yes it may be funny, but it's just plain deception. Whens the last time you read every word of a contract that you signed?

a few years ago there was a guy who sold something like 20-30 pictures of a pioneer flip out screen dvd player for a car.....for about $1200 each, never heard if they caught him.

Whats worse is that in Tech's auction there was not just two people bidding against each other, there were several idiots bidding it up!
Where do we get these people... JoeA
