    Default Dabs.com Computer Stock Bundles

    Has anyone bought one of these returned stock bundles from dabs on ebay?

    They list them every week more or less, and haven't received any - feedback for the items from what i've seen (although they have for delivery).

    Here's an example:

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=270063995113

    The bundle includes graphics cards, external hard drives, flash drives and other stuff and went for £103.

    I'm just wondering if anyone has bought one of these and if the components actually work as they are returned stock and without warrenty...

    I did buy 4 sealed PSP games (Toca 2) off them for £20 i think it was about 8 months ago which was a good price.

    Here's a couple of their current listings:

    Plenty of bad feedback on them. You would have thought they would try to avoid that really.

    True but most of it is for deliveries I believe. When I dealt with them the items were delivered within 2 days.

    I'm just wondering about the actual stock, obviously something is wrong with the items but do they actually work...

    Theres some bad feedback, but alot of good feedback, if i had the money i'd probably try and invest in some of the returned and aged stock, on one of the ones you posted theres a returned stock with a few ipod nanos in.

    Not sure what the condition would be like but you can always sell them on as faulty on ebay and probably make your money back (if they were faulty).

    You could always try and send them back to apple for repair

    Exactly, these are probably the lowest grade of b-stock meaning they are untested, and damaged.

    I notice on a lot of the auctions it lists items as faulty but these as returns but no warranty i wonder what the legal implication of that would be as they take payment via credit card

    ive noticed that there is one bidder today who has joined today who has placed 46 bids on various pc items as well as most of the dabs bundles smells like smelly stuff to me

    Quite sad how a company as rich as they are, actually need to shaft people
    for the sake of making a few 100 quid back, just accept the stuff is fucked
    and destroy it or bin it.-

    I cant really see any use for this stuff, unless you repair stuff and need parts etc.

    To be fair though they do some good deals on ebay. Like I said, I got 4 sealed PSP games for £20 about 8 months ago.
