The second one is actually my design. Although it does not
provide 96K only a regular 8K module for the M100.
Curious as to how it was copied from OSHpark, they would have to
get the gerbers? OSHPark provide 3 for $6.30 and free shipping,
so the ebayer is quite expensive.
The most likely explanation is that they don’t have the files and
aren’t manufacturing anything, they’re just buying the PCBs off
OSHpark and reselling them on eBay. Probably they don’t even have
any stocket, they make the OSHpark order until someone buys one
from their eBay store.
I’ve seen this sort of thing before. Someone lifted photos and
text from a Craigslist ad for an arcade game, and put them
directly on eBay for twice the price. The idea being that if
someone bought it, they’d buy from the CL seller and have instant
profit. Commerce really brings out the worst in some folks.
The local folks here caught on, so we had someone making crazy
eBay offers on one end, while the actual seller slow rolled the
guy and raised the price.
