Default Ebay...does this smell?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...PcY_BIN_Stores

That seems cheap to me, and I dont like the "This advert complies with eBay requirements and will not be removed "

1600 + feedback at 99% would say different though?

I already have one, just came across it looking for games.. :

any thoughts..?

Does look rather pungent... Especially as the buy-it-now price quoted in the main text (£139.98) doesn't match the buy-it-now price in the top bit (£134.98)... Good to see some sellers are keeping alive the spirit of raping buyers on the postage though

[stupid hat on] How much are they supposed to retail for anyway? [/stupid hat off]

they seem to be fetching about £190 ,from other UK non ebay sellers, but thats just what I have seen on the net etc, not really looked ito it..

Its an odd one, very good feedback, but there is a hint of " if its too good to be true" about it

I maybe a bus ride out though, and that is what they are now going for..

He's offering PayPal Buyer protection, still seems cheap because the would cost you min £150 from the Asian stores withou shipping.

Hello

It's not that cheap, as it's only the console not the value pack. His value pack is £160.
