auctions like these... they've always slightly interested me but i've never really been sure whether i wanted to risk wasting the money. this one is only $3 and i'mi tempted.
although i'm pretty sure i know to some extent what this information is... you'll most likely end up at one of those sites (such as the free ipod type of deals) where you complete certain offers or through referrals..
anyone ever buy one?

I got a feeling you will be put on a list that is monitored by the police for suspected buyers of stolen goods. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

err.. don't want to go through that. receiving stolen goods isn't a charge i want (my brother in law is oging through that. only he has grand larceny, destruction of property, breaking and entering, etc attached to it)

It's pretty much b/s. This guy was doing one, and he said DON"T BID, email me and I will tell you how do get a JL amp for 75,so I emailed him and yadayada, he sent me a link to the website. Anyway, you have to buy some book, and then they put you on a list, and then the more you sell and have a reference you move up on the list. And when your on top, you pick what you want. Doesn't seem legit tho.
