"More than 10 available / 21 sold..."

Shit makes me sick... @£50 a pop he's made his money back easily.

"romford, Essex, United Kingdom"

Hmmm.... I think that might be where RS have a warehouse? Not sure tho.

If he has 50 of them, how the fuck did he do it?

The Raspberry site clearly states 1 per person so either Farnell/RS have fucked up or Raspberry have. . .

AND he had them up for £40 then upped the price...

[DJ OD]

OR he's a scammer and has none or will send them a board full of shite!

Not that would be amusing!

Well I guess its just capitalism at work. Just going to have to wait till the next batch.

[Zoots]

For a long time now, it doesn't seem to matter what it is - web offers, event tickets, product launches etc, someone is always there to fuck it up and make a buck from it, making everyone who wants it pay more.

If you want some free advertising and sales, get your product advertised on HUKD ....

Might be an idea to create some vaporware, get it on HUKD, Get some unsuspecting knob to buy 100 from you who will put them on Fleabay - Lessons learned all round.

HUKD has lived it's life now.. Takes the fun out of finding deals for yourself plus the place is full of muppets... Only yesterday I am sure I saw a post for free Finish Tablets and some fucktards are making it an 'Ice Cold' deal because they didn't have a dishwasher to take advantage of it... The mentality is laughable of most of the tw@ts over there.

[stevo25]

Very true re HUKD or the other for being cold is "its not an apple"

[maltloaf]

I can't stand HUKD. Trolls galore.

Glastonbury have been the only ones to properly limit a popular product. 1 per registered person, pre registration required and ebay sale of tickets banned. It would never be widespread in today's one click society though.

[Goldberg]

Oooops... I might have sent the Ebay seller a question, or rather a hammering!

I think we should all join in

[maltloaf]

I don't think you'll be the only one. I saw the ebay sale mentioned on the raspberry pi twitter feed.

[Goldberg]

Yeah just tweeted to them also. Hopefully they will force him to close it down.

[blaggard]

Then there's this one for a bag of sand. . . http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Raspberry-...#ht_500wt_1413

"Estimated within 31-32 working days "

What a cock.

[Mobileman]

our mission for today is to plague the life out of these cockends listing on ebay

[tronads]

"I live in Romford, if I buy it now, can I call round in 10 minutes to collect please".
"whats that....you don't actualy have them yet ?"

[lagigolo]

I can see some nice little custom cases being available for these. Also thinking it would be a good project to make something slick.

[Goldberg]

Yeah seen some nice compact case designs as well as people putting them into Arcade Stick cases to use them like portable MAME machines.
Holding off buying a new SD card etc... until I get confirmation of me ordering one and see what the 'scene' is doing with them.

Initial thoughts are I want one to manage my NZB Downloads and host my Subsonic server, another for each TV with XMBC and then a MAME project.

One to start with and I will swap out the SD cards accordingly, and once got it working for my needs I will grab some more. Should keep us busy for a while.

[Rick Sanchez]

Did anybody get one?
