Re: Ebay G5 query

[peter webster]

I'm unable to speak for anyone else, but I have two problems: one is 
such a deal is obviously a rip-off, and the other is I'm poor enough 
I wouldn't even dream of a G5.


LOL, having now read through this thread from its start I've noticed
no-one here has offered up an explanation of how this (obvious) scam
actually works.
Can it be no lister has popped for one of these 'deals'??

Or is it possibly the case that any lister niave enough to have popped
for one is still somehow savvy enough to _not_admit_ to it here. <G>
BTW, this topic is rather _on-topic_. Similar ads form an overly largish
percentage of eBay's PB-area listings as well. Any lister interested in
purchasing a recent 'Book from eBay should be aware of their existence,
forwarned being fore-armed and all that . . .
