Misprint? You can bet the $2000 is the misprint - not the $20K. rolleyes.gif (after all - why would anyone sell the as yet unreleased G5 for any less than it's list price???)

Either he's angling for idiots...REALLY impatient idiots or he thinks this is all a big joke. And in doing so, is going to get a black mark on that perfect eBay record of his. Not allowed to sell stuff you don't have on hand without telling people exactly WHEN you're going to get it to them (and then it has to be within 30 days of auction end) and if he's selling developer machines...ooh, he'll be in a bit of hot water pretty soon.

This kind of garbage is what gives eBay a bad name.
