Watch out! Office 2003 Pro on eBay! Seems cheap but always check first!

I was looking on eBay the other day for some Office 2003 Professional software with the COA license keys. I was amazed at the amount of listings and how cheap they were!

However, be very, very wary! Always read the whole listing, as you can get a variety of different results.

I noticed one the other day where the seller had typed (obviously in the tiniest print possible) that the disks were backup disks and you had to own your own license. Some even say in the title that they come with the COA.

Personally, I think eBay should remove these listings - they are unfair to users just trying to get a decent version of Office or Xp or whatever.

So, watch out! Check the listings before buying to make sure you don't spend money on some disks that are useless if you have no license!

:doh: I should have posted this on the eBay board! I couldn't find it at the time.

If an administrators comes across this, could you kindly move it to the eBay board. many thanks!

These items are usually not allowed on ebay anyway, so reporting them will almost certainly get the listing pulled.
