This whole ordeal should be illegal,just like when in the UK it was common practice to sell a bunch of chemicals with a little bit of wheat instead of pure wheat resulting in regulations and laws to combat this.

LAWL this is so stupid. These scalpers......

 

on the desc it says,  "No device is sold, you are bidding exclusively and by mutual agreement on a printed sheet of paper. It is a private purchase without a guarantee or warranty, returns are also excluded. By submitting a bid, you agree to this."

 

thanks for bringing this to my attention

I wonder if the thread is more suitable for the Tech News forum

they tried to sneak it in there, if it wasn't there then legally they'd have to refund the customer, but this way they can fight it.

There's a similar one where people were selling boxes but not including the product itself, dunno if that's still a thing too.

A few of the ones with .img are trying to catch bots if you read the description some of them say that they are just there to try to catch the bots, but they are not really helping
