if it looks too good to be true then it probably is http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/QUAD-ESL-2905-ELECTROSTATIC-...

These cost the thicker end of £5k so why would somebody start it at .99p , list it for 3 days and sold nothing else that went into double figures and tat at that...................

It's not uncommon to start things low on the hope that they will quickly reach 'market value' is it..? Although the bottom line is that if it smells like a scam, it probably is a scam..

ETA: the lack of additional pictures, packaging and cabling suggests it's a scam too - any seller with these on their hands would have loads of pics.

If I was selling something like this I would start it on a Thursday evening for 10 days to maximise the exposure and get as many bidders in as possible
