What is with this Segway Auction on Ebay??
Look at this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...item=742418758

Is this fake? It looks it to me.......
For the location it says: Shipped by Segway LLC
Then for the seller it says: be@businessdirective.com
Shouldn't the seller be from Segway???????? Something seems stange unless its just me.

Look at this one also: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...item=741435066

Also look at these segway things for sale: http://search.ebay.com/search/search...t&query=segway

Maybe this guy is going to buy a Segway off Amazon.com and then resell it???

There sure is lots of information on that link about the Segway though

Hmm that is strange indeed. It appears that the only Legit. one would be your first link, since the 2nd auction was ended with no high bidder. It always seems like you can get anything off of Ebay

E-mails and such have been sent out from e-bay that people posting a technological device on e-bay arn't legit, and that only a 'well known' distributor is selling them. My guess is this guy bought one, and will ship it to the winner when they get it.

yah that is what i am thinking and did you notice the price. Way more than what Amazon.com is selling them for. Plus there are people selling the info of where you can buy one legit, they are charging 100+ just to e-mail the high bidder amazon.com's site. Ebay is such a scam.

Some people are just so greedy... I haven't heard about that e- mailng of Amazon's site for money, but that's pretty low. Ebay should post something on their site about how one could easily go to Amazon.com and get one for 5K. Arg... so much money....

the first one seems fake since there is just one huge page of specs, not like the somewhat more official looking page that they sell them on.

When I looked at it, I thought said 1 Bid and had a highest bidder (can't check it now, at school)

Heh. Probably bid on by some Mac users.
*has house burned down by people wearing "Bill Gates=t3h SATAN" t-shirts*

In hindsight though, it could be worse. One guy put up an auction on eBay saying that if you were the lucky person to pay him enough money (along with his travel fees), he would come to your house and beat you up.

Ok, does every post need to insult the Mac in some way? Look at Fluck, he hates Macs, but only when he has an opinion does it come out.

What's so bad about Mac?
Hey there's nothing wrong with Macs! Just ask Mr. Chaos Theory himself , But seriously if I had a Mac I would be satisfied, just like I am with my HP Pavilion w/ Windows ME. (I need XP )
