It's one of those
eBay auctions
that get your hopes up and then immediately piss you off as soon as you click on the link for several reasons.
- it's not really a scan-doubler
- huge pictures unnecessarily load right away without warning
- no offense effy, but after 400+ feedback earned, you finally need to learn to create thumbnails in your description.

It's just one of those composite to VGA converters which can be found for ~20USD at electronics stores. It's not actually anything near the quality of RGB video to VGA conversion.

I guess it is technically, but I think that everyone expects to see an actual Amiga scan-doubler after reading the auction's title, and then when you realize that it's just a composite to VGA converter, it's kind of a downer.
