An ebay seller just impressed me.

I was looking up Radeon 9000 PCI cards and found a couple of Powercolor models being sold by this guy, richlife. However, in the specs for the card, I noticed that he was listing the specs of a 9000 Pro, namely 275/275, when I know for a fact they come 250/190. Someone with less knowledge could get a little upset when the product they purchased did not ring true with the description. So I sent him a short e-mail asking him to correct this mistake and I just got a reply. He had, in fact, corrected it. Needless to say, I had expected either no response or a nasty-gram at the most from him. Seems there are still a few honest ppl on ebay.:)

This was his response:

I appreciate your help so much; without this info, I'll keep on doing it
wrong. I will make some adjustment ASAP.

Thanks a lot!

> Hello. Just a note to you. You might want to change your description for
this card. The specifications you have listed are not the specs for the
Powercolor 9000 64mb PCI card. It does not have a 275mhz memory clock, only
the 9000 Pro version does, and there are no Pro PCI cards. The actual memory
clock is only 190mhz. I know, because I have one already. And even
Powercolor's own website specifies that this card "supports" a 200mhz memory
clock speed. Here is a link to their actual description of this card:
http://www.power-color.com/html/rv25p-b3.html. Please make an adjustment to
your description, for it can be misleading. Thank you.

People with higher ratings generally get more money for the same product. I think it's fair.
