I'm currently seaching Froogle for the best possible prices for new, unopened PSPs, and I came across this guy: http://base.google.com/base/a/1568551/D4312363687153534673

Just read the Terms of Service, and under Appropriate Conduct I did read: "[SIZE=-1]You also understand and agree that you nonetheless may be exposed to such conduct and/or Content and that you use Google Base at your own risk."

I thought I should post this...You never know :whistle2:?

Mm..... Sounds fishy... Cash and checks only??? :whistle2:\ Some people also posted Wiis for $200 and less @ Google Base... I suggest you shouldn't deal with those people. It sounds too good to be true :X
 
if it is too good to be true, then it probably is; nonetheless, i bet people will be suckered into those scams because people are always trying to save a few bucks. i remember looking for wiis on google base, i had never been there before, and saw some for retail or under retail. i was shocked as well as tempted, but those are almost always scams. retail stores probably make $50 on each wii or less, so how is some guy going to be able to sell it for less than retail? a site had PSPs for $157 after some 50% coupon, but that was a few days ago...

Do you remember what site this would be, and whether the coupon is still good?
 
Yeah, people were saying that it didn't work for the PSP and that it only worked for their clearance items. Many of Fingerhut's "original prices" for their items are outrageous anyway. The PSP must be ~$300 for it to be slashed down to $157 after the 50% off.
