Found this online :The lowest base price is $2,137.00
Selling for a tenner? Think you are right to be circumspect!!0 -
Just had a look at his feedback which is all 100% positive so doesnt seem that bad. Email him but he will tell you that he is selling it for a lot more than its listed for. You need a price to get it listed.
I use ebay all the time and he seems to be reputable. It wont hurt emailing him but you will definitely not get it for the listed price.I am a Mortgage Adviser.

This has all the looks of a hijacked account. The give away is this sentence:-If you are interested in my offer please contact me at
**Sorry removed by BG, no email addresses on the forum please**
because I have some problems with my eBay Email Account!
I would say the real owner of the account is called Kevin and not Tom. Any ad that suggests you contact outside EBay is very very dodgy0 -
sorry didn't check the listing just the op's thread.
report because he is encouraging you to contact him out of ebay!! its against the rules!

I think what he is offering is the chance for you to specify what system you want and then he will build it up for you going by this quote under the software bit 'Depending upon your system configuration,'
its just the chance to bid for a quote - RIP OFFWins so Far: 21" lcd monitor, 6 day all expenses paid holiday to China, 8800GTX gfx card, 2x Panasonic cameras, 12 cups and Loads of Twix's, Coffee Lovers Hamper - Wild bean cafe. TomTom (upto value of £200) Aviva Car Insurance0
