    okay first off.. money laundering, great idea. but no one is that dumb- next best idea was - it was his friend- A NASTY FRIEND ting to do cause the seller has to pay a small pcent.. and when i searched just now i saw a psp for 14,000+ same kinda auction- ridiculus fees to pay ebay on those big numbers!! not a good friend if you ask me- so I WOULD HAVE TO SAY its probably some sniping software that someone left running OR a grudge bid which has happened to me- someone who got revenge by outbidding whatever!!!

    lol!!! I LOVE EBAY!!!

    Cool E-bay people can be dumb

    I had a friend who put up the BOX that an X-Box 360 came in on e-bay. He clearly stated many times it was just the box, there was nothing in the box, and they would only get the box. He did it as a joke.

    Some lady bid $300 on it! She won the box. He felt bad and told her it was just a box and she got mad at him! What a dumbo!

    Some lady put a ghost on e-bay, and got like $25,000 for it from a gambling casino in England. She sold literally nothing fro $25,000!

    Another lady put up a grilled cheese sandwich that she claimed had the image of the virgin mary on it and got $75,000 for it.

    Gotta go, my ghost is making grilled cheese...

    You really have to be careful when buying ANYTHING from eBay, as it isn't what you would call a "reliable" site. I remember just 3 years ago when it was scam/spam free.

    If ebay was scam free today, so many people would buy and sell things there and there would ne tons more to choose from. Needless to say, it would be great.

    I've been trying to sell my (ta-82) psp on ebay for almost three weeks. I have had to relist it twice because damn Nigerian scammers keep winning it with high bids in the final minutes. One was using some woman's stolen account and another was a fresh account that was cancelled as soon as I reported it to ebay.
    Like someone mentioned earlier, they send fake messages from paypal, saying that payment has been received, and that it will appear on my account as soon as I send them the delivery tracking number (indicating that the psp has been shipped to Nigeria). Naturally, I report them to ebay as soon as I can, but ebay handles unpaid bidder disputes on the assumption that the buyer and seller will be communicating with each other as the dispute progresses. Without the scammer being willing to communicate with ebay, I am stuck paying the final value fees; which sucks when my entire reason for selling the psp is to raise money for a Wii or a ps3 on launch day.

    In the end, the whole situation sucks big, hairy, Nigerian gorilla balls.

    (PS- I didn't do any research prior to making that last comment. If you "know for a fact" that gorillas do not live in nigeria; that nigerian gorillas do not have hairy balls; that nigeria does not exist; or that an idea,being an incorporeal abstraction, has no mouth and is thus incapable of sucking anything, let alone sweaty gorilla sack; don't bother replying to let me know. I understand the obvious.)

    if she would have gotten pissed at me i would have been like you know what u owe me $300

    i think it was very noble and honest of your friend to come out like that even when he stated it in his page
