    i'm highly dubious - especially as the ad says free postage

    eBay rule no.1: If it looks too good to be true, then it probably is.

    Looks like an account hack - hack into the account of a user who has lots of positive feedback and who has spyware on their PC (key logging), or has a simple password which can be guessed.

    PS: Who ends up with six MBPs (which aren't stolen) and never mentions how they come to be selling them on eBay?

    I know it looks tempting (I've been there, when I was looking for a Canon DSLR), but resist...

    I know what you mean, but it's best to wait, and bid on MBPs that actually exist ;)

    Never mind, and good luck in the hunt, let us know how you get on...

    Ah bless !!! Someone must have been reading up on past Ebay scams. I almost got stung with this scam only then it was a 17" Powerbook !!

    Avoid like the plague would be my advice.

    Eh read the reviews there is 2, never recieved laptop, everything else is "BEST LAPTOP EVER" reviews clearly off something else, and then the other reviews are "looking for IPOD touch"

    This is a scam, so SCAM run clear!!

    Opposite of the all-time classic, the p-p-p-powerbook!
