just seemed a little too good to be true

242677 2004-06-08 00:35:00 OK perhaps not,

it appears to be some sort of "microsoft action pack", a subscription thingie I think

242678 2004-06-08 00:40:00 Whatever it is i wouldn't touch it with a 500 foot stud encusted gun barrell

What makes me laugh is people selling freely available e-books,lists of wholesalers and content from websites(anyone want to buy the instructions on how to make a projecter from a cardboard box and a magnifing lens???)

Don't why anyone would pay that guy to tell them how to get it though!

I don't think Microsoft will sell them to just anyone.
You have to be a Microsoft Partner to subscribe to it.

242684 2004-06-08 01:34:00 Doh....just went to post the link and call him a scammer and was informed my account is 3 dollars in debt and im locked out...... metla (154)
242685 2004-06-08 01:35:00 lol I just fired off a quick note to Trademe Admin. I see someone has bid already also which is why I sent in the complaint as I HATE to see buggers ripping off people. I also note that the seller is also from Hastings and has a few other seemingly genuine auctions running too. dipstick01 (445)
