never mind,i'll update this tomorrow with the story.

Well i can reveal now this. A kid on another board posted this and i bid $1.00 and found he hadn't set a reserve and had listed the Buy It Now at $995.00 i guess thinking these were going to be sold out immediately. Well he was informed there were 5 million of them available . Well i bid as high as $20.00 when he said he wasn't going to let it go at a loss so i guess he'll either find a shill or end the auction . http://img340.imageshack.us/img340/3638/00iphoneun5.jpg

Updates please when you get them, lol. That would be real funny if he stood outside for who knows how many days just to sell it for $100.

Not sure what really happened but the final ,winning bid was $660.00 so either he kept the faith and hope that he'd make out and did or the winner is a shill who he will have leave positive feedback and compensate under the table.

probably his other shill id on another pc. These are going for 20 bux so bid on another one and be happy.

Screw that. I'd rather spend that much money on upgrading something in the car.

I'd rather have a ps3... at least it's one hell of a Blue ray player.

I find it amusing that more people are buying PS3's at the moment as a cheap bluray player than a games console.

Btw, yellow dog linux runs amazingly on PS3's.

The very first day these were going at about 1500 a pop. I checked just out of curiosity to laugh at anyone stupid enough to pay 1500 for a cell phone. Guess it didn't last long...
