I Am So Lucky!

So, I went on eBay, searched iPad, then for the cheapest ones, then found one that no one had bid on and that was ending in less than a minute. The starting bid was $0.99, so I bid that, and won! The shipping was $10, but still, $11 for an iPad!

To make money. The "Buy it now price" was $600, retail price. I feel bad for the seller.

You have to be sure you got it from a trusted seller.

I might go for it. Ebay seems to be full with unbidded iPads on last minute sells...  smile

But yeah, look for stuff like 100% positive reviews and powerseller.

What is this iPad? A new brain sucking machine from the big bad Apple corporation?

There is definitely logic in support of both sides here, but I think your opinion wins.  smile

He must be selling it because it broke or something, but no-body else knows it, so he ends up winning in the end.

Sorry Adriangl...  tongue

...but I guess only time can tell the REAL answer...  wink

He has %100 positive feedback from over 80 products, so he can't be cheap, and the buy it now price was more than retail, so he was hoping for money.
