Well, just about anyone with any computer sense will notice that it's a total scam. For one, it's a geocities website. Two, when you click certain links, it links you to his personal geocities sites.

Yes, those are his list of "scams".

Come on guys, use your noodle.

Definantly a scam. Read the page and you'll see 2 different but it now prices and at the bottom the starting bid is 20k.

Let's see, the seller has been a member since August, ships worldwide, and wants $2900?

If it's too good to be true...
