A 10-14 day turnaround?

Hmmm.... I wonder if you take the money, THEN order the parts, THEN put it together, THEN finally ship it out?

How about this.... Don't make up some crappy name like KickAssPC and try to start a computer business. You are two times too high on the price as well.

Please stick to taking kids' lunch money at school... (he is obviously some high school kid)

EDIT: AND he STOLE the image of the donkey for his logo from Google... WTF!
Fourth line down...

I can't believe people are pre-ordering DVD's from people on eBay!

I preordered Babylon5 Season3 from Amazon, then checked eBay to see if anybody was illicitly selling it early. Lists and lists of people selling preorders.

riiiiggggghhhhttt...

IS this any different than what Dell does? You pay, and then they make the computer to your specifications.....

What's wrong with selling crap he doesn't have yet?
He is selling a service of prebuilt computer, with a huge markup.
At least he is not scamming, yet?

$200 for WinXP Pro and you're buying a computer?

He must be out of his mind.

What I think he's doing is waiting for payment, buying two of those barebone, then after he configures them he'll keep one for himself.

Sounds like a kid with no money.

edro13, you can't post your auctions on this site. that is spam. Plus you are charging way too much for that system. I can get it much cheaper through newegg.

It's called drop ship, and can be a very effective way to run your business. It allows you to sell product without out-of-pocket costs. It's not a scam.

Hmmm, the guy has no rating and no bids. I think he's a newbie thinking he can make some easy cash.

It is actually the goal of many manufacturing firms out there. JIT - Just in time inventory. If I had the time, I would be running something like this on ebay. He is up front in his auction that there is some lag time between purchase and shipping. I would have a problem with someone who didn't provide this warning and still did the same thing.
