Talking A brand new Nintendo Wii sold for just $76.00 on eBay.
If the seller actually follows through, this could possibly be the best deal ever on a Wii. http://cgi.ebay.com/Brand-New-Wii_W...1QQcmdZViewItem

Seller has 0 feedback and 1 bid retraction over the past 6 months. I say seller runs away.... fast!

Seller only accepted checks and money orders, probably the reason for the low price. Or maybe the Wii just plain sucks!

I'd bet anything it's a scam.. I won't deal with anyone who won't accept online payment myself.

The buyer is an idiot.

But let's wait a few days and see what feedback the buyer gives the seller.

Or maybe just a touch "naive".. idiot is a strong word to use for someone you don't know, eh?

Eh, I guess so.

I'd say if it turns out a scam then it is the buyer's fault.
If it turns out legit and he gets his wii then he is definitely not an idiot.

Well, this seller also has a few new PS2s...

Obviously a scam, but worth the $1.04.

Well, that also has $35 shipping, so that's a little more realistic. It's hard to believe for a Wii though since its demand is crazy (from what I hear).

Ouch! $103 + $76 + $143, as well as another PSP already on $150 (compared to $143 before) + 2 more PS2s (last one sold for $103)

Total: Approx $700.

That one at least has a full description and Paypal. Other one is only check/money order, that's one hell of a risk!

There's a chance that it's not a scam. I guess you've just gotta be either desperate for a PSP/PS2/Wii, totally naive, or have more money than sense to take the risk!

I am guessing it is a complete rip off. There is no way one would do this.
