Auctions like that are all over eBay and have been for a long time. They're aimed at the people that can't read the auction details. And too many people fall for them.

Suckers! :beer:

 

[slycat]

put LOTS of picstures, all nice and purty...put LOTS of small print, paragraphs upon paragraphs.

sure enough, people will buy.

And idiots still fall for it, so in my opinion, they didn't deserve the money they lost on the auction in the first place.

Ships to: United States only

Damn it.

 

[Corporate Thug]

these are not new, you pay the auctioneer and they send you useless info about how to obtain these products

never works

Yes. Why doesn't he?

Ebay needs to be chained and flogged for allowing junk auctions like this one.
But they make $ off the listings so they don't care about anything other than that.

I preffer the auction they had a few months ago for nothing. Literally. And it wasn't a secret either. It said in big, bold letters, "You are bidding on nothing. There are no shipping costs because it costs nothing to ship nothing. I have no pictures because again, how do you take a picture of nothing. If you win this auction, you will get NOTHING."

It sold for $15.

 

[Ranger X]

People who can't read deserve to get ripped off.

 

[TitanDiddly]

When searching on ebay, always put in "-(info)" in so that no items with info in the title get returned.

 

[Shelly21]

Info like this is available for free IIRC, just download it and become a seller youself.
