Looks like a scam. Firstly, it's in China. Not a good start. Secondly, it doesn't specify payment types accepted, which means you'll win and then they'll ask to use Western Union or some such rubbish. Thirdly, the seller has only 14 feedback ratings, one of those is negative and most of the rest seem to be for $0.01 items. Classic scammer profile (and not a very smart one). Avoid. -- radish radish's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=77 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27721 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Oh yes its a scam for sure but it seemed such an unlikely thing to feature in a scam - ipods and hifi wouldn't raise an eyebrow...but Squeezebox bundles...maybe its a sign Slimdevices have hit the big time! gandt -- gandt gandt's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=586 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27721 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Yeah, and the feedback ratings are all from Sellers, so this is the first sale from that ID. Seems like the account was originally created in france...

Quite a nice example of an eBay scam. He had about 16 Squeezebox3's and Ready Nas for sale with all auctions ending at very similar times. Despite the bad press eBay receive in the Uk I am heartened to see that they have removed the dodgy listing already. MC -- ModelCitizen Why does it always happen to me?
