I know that a lot of us here at rec.radio.shortwave have used Ebay to buy
and sell radios (and etc.).

A scammer tried to get a free G4 Powerbook, but it all went horribly wrong.
The story is hilarious at times, very enlightening (if you use Ebay),
entertaining, and has some photos.

Did I mention it's funny as all get-out?
