LIKE WORKING IN THE FUTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Someone please call his phone number and ask him what the future is like?

Edit: Wow someone bought it. The future must be nice,(or a broken English scam)

 

[bjett92]

Hahaha the description is awesome. (Maybe just a little too small of a font size though)

 

[maestro55]

No pictures, bad grammar, I wouldn't give the guy half a penny.

 

[iDAG]

I wish I knew what the future was like...

 

[keysersoze]

Whoever bought that, based off the description, is simply a retard.

 

[todd2000]

LOL WOW! Somebody actually bought it too. I mean his feedback is good and all, but that auction still seems just a wee bit suspicious to me.

Must be his alter-ego... bought it from himself to save the grief. Or it's his neighbor. Or his futuristic girlfriend.

I wonder if scammers have a system to generate reasonable feedback scores. I guess, in principle, if you and I wanted to set ourselves up as scammers, I could create a bunch of auctions for which you could exert the buy-it-now option, and then you could not pay me, I could mark you as paid, etc, and we could give each other feedback, leading us both to have high feedback scores. Perhaps there's some sort of anti-heatware out there where all the scammers collaborate. I bet there are dead parrots there too.

Hahaha

The description also says how great it is to used, but it also says that it is brand new and sealed!!

I agree... the person who spend $900 dollars on that must have been just a TAD loopy.

Notice it has dual 667 MHz Core Duos... huh? The first Intel iMac was 1.83 GHz (though I guess the system bus was 667 MHz).

This text in the product description really clears it up, though:
THIS iMAC HAS IGB OF 667 MHs and 250gb

Now I get it.

Yes I have witnessed some strange auctions myself.

 

[srt42b]

I never knew I was working in the future?

 

[Brianstorm91]

Anybody else needs glasses to read that text?

Try using a Windows PC, preferably with one of those clunky keyboards they seem to come with.

It will certainly feel like you have traveled into the past.

I think the seller is just completely computer illiterate. 1GB of 667MHz sure sounds like the RAM. The dual processors just means the dual cores on the single processor. The 128mb of RAM is video RAM.

So after looking at that, the buyer may have got a deal depending on the processor speed.

I think he was being honest, he just doesn't know much about computers. Give him a break.

(But it's still funny)

Or they could be a scammer too and hope that the guy listing it will ship before getting payment.

[joekix]

[thesdx]

The guy said he bought a MPB to "make a DVD for a trip I took, now I have no use for it".

Hey, sometimes you cant beat brutal honesty.

Yes I have witnessed some strange auctions myself.

I wish I can afford to drop over 2 grand on a computer system just to burn one DVD disc.
