Check this out, the price is still below 100 dollars or so, remaining time a few days.

P.S. probably a fraud/scam since the seller does not have any feedback (!!!!)

, but then again I just got scammed by someone with a feedback of 100+ 100% positive....

Putting up a $10,000 piece of kit with a starting bid of $25 and no reserve seems suspicious to me

/U.

This just screams "SCAM!"

Already two bidders have place bids on this so called Orpheus. No pics of the actual Orpheus being sold except one that was copied from somewhere else. Leave it to a seller with zero feedback to try such an outrageous scam.

I just hope nobody here is dumb enough to take the bait.

Make that 3 bidders... But my $125 was already oubid.

Hey, he lives in Ohio, I'll offer to pick it up if I win and trade for a certified check.

If it sounds too good to be true.........


The seller might as well have posted that they take only Western Union.

Check the feedback... as in none.

I put a bid in with the intention that if I won I would drive to Ohio and pick it up in person. I saw a few head-fiers on the bidding list, including one from bozebuttons in the last few minutes. Anyone know if the high bidder is a head-fier?

This auction reeks of scam but if the high bidder actually gets an orpheus for under $4k that is not a bad deal.

It just ended: Winning bid: US $3,707.00

If the sale is legit someone is getting a killer deal, no doubt....

If someone posts about their new Orpheus, I'll believe it then. Since e-mail wasn't being answered, I stayed out of the auction. IMO if the seller had done anything to establish some sort of credibility, he might have come close to doubling the winning bid.

Damn! And you were so close.

At the very least, this seller could be a little creative and send a box with a cardboard cutout of the Orpheus. Ala, PPP Powerbook...

Or maybe he's selling Dean as a slave.
