    Default New Sony Psp For Only 19.95 Free Shipping

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...e=STRK:MESE:IT

    Anyone know if this is a scam or what? The seller has positive feedback from previous auctions and i've seen them go as high as $210 USD.

    yeah but lets say you pay $75 for the auction, then $20 for the psp so you pay around $100 for a brand new psp. I'm just curious.

    And you will get scammed.

    Send me 70 and I'll tell you how to get a PSP for free.

    Have you ever heard the line "If it's too good to be true it probably is"?

    You're probably right. The only reason i have second thoughts about it is the fact that he got postive feedback for previous auctions which were the same.

    I guess it's too risky imo.

    Sure, there are companies that will give you a free PSP after you fulfill their conditions too, but nothing in this world is free and you should know better.

    Only 3 of his 21 pieces of feedback are from buyers and who knows what it was he sold, it could've been a box of gum for all we know.

    As well, the link will most likely be a link to an electronics wholesaler. These wholesale sites charge a rate of ~200USD to be able to buy from them. Even then, you would have to buy a lot with around
    10 000 PSPs (maybe even more) to qualify for a price of $20.

    As a closing note, just ask yourself this question "Why would anyone go to all the trouble of creating an auction to sell a hot item for WAAAY below retail price?" I can't think of an answer, other then the obvious one.

    Even if you are buying 100,000 PSP's I dont think you would qualify for $20. That is just way to low.

    oh my god read it careful . He will show u the link to get it cheap .
    THIS IS FOR INFORMATION ONLY NOT THE ACTUAL SYSTEM. THE INFORMATION CAN GET YOU A NINTENDO DS, XBOX AND A PLAYSTATION FOR UNDER $20.


    LINK WILL BE EMAILED RIGHT AFTER AUCTION

    *REMEMBER THIS IS LINK ONLY NOT SYSTEM. NO REFUNDS PLEASE READ AUCTION CLEARLY TO UNDERSTAND

    its a scam, its a link to a matrix its basically a pyramid scheme

    each person pays $20

    after say 11 people pay $20 that = $220 then the place send the first person onthe list the psp, then another 11 have to sign up for the second person to receive thiers... so after only 2 people receiveing you ahve 22 people waiting for them, this means they need another 242 people to pay $20 for those 22 people to get thiers, which means there are now 242 people in the list which requires another 2662 people to sign up for them to get thiers... basically, its a rip off, maybe a dozen of the hundreds of people who sign up will receive one, then the line dies because people realise its way too long.

    Default scam

    Another one they do is to give you a link on how to open your own shipping company and then request prototypes/demo's via UPS or fedex from overseas companies. Anyone that runs an auction like this is trying to sell this info or a pyramid scheme

    Remember, if it was actually true, why would the seller waste time giving people links when he can buy it himself and sell them on ebay for several times that .

    "THIS IS FOR INFORMATION ONLY NOT THE ACTUAL SYSTEM. THE INFORMATION CAN GET YOU A NINTENDO DS, XBOX AND A PLAYSTATION FOR UNDER $20."
    Not worth $20 - likely a pyramid, for some reason pyramid schemes have become popular again-perhaps because so many people are looking for a way to get something for nothing?

    Anyways, here's a freebie for you. Here's how you can get as many free Xbox or PS2 games as you want-start a game review magazine and then get in touch with the marketing department at every major software publisher and you'll get a free copy of the game to review. The catch is you have to have a real review magazine and you have to be able to prove a readership in excess of a certain amount. You could also do a game review website, but the amount of daily visitors you'll need will make it difficult to qualify. In either case, you have to work hard for your freebies, so really how free are they?
