Which one of these answers is the correct one?
« on: July 07, 2005, 08:23:50 PM »
Have a look at this auction and then pick the right answer:

(1) The seller honestly does not know that this is a CyberstormPPC card.

(2) The seller has a CyberstormPPC card with a defective PPC cpu and is advertising the card as a MKIII, as in case the PPC cpu is damaged, the card would work the same as if it were a MKIII.

(3) The card doesn't work at all, hence sold as-is.

Seller knows it's a PPC card but the PPC fails and thus work just like a MK3 and thus he sells it as such. He might think the card is going downhill or it already has and that's why it's sold AS-IS.

As always when seller sais sold untested of as-is my warninglights goes off. Especialy when so much other data is precent. Be prepared to get a dead or dying board.

My vote is for "seller doesn't know what it is, item really has some rough equivalent to NOS, and the seller made the listing by simply copying the basic information from the cover of the manual shown in the picture."

EDIT...I just read the sellers history...

I don't know how much I change my vote...but I do a bit.

This auction has ended. Check out the final bid. I'd really like to see what happens in the feedback section sometime soon. :-)

hehe well, he hasn't advertised it as having PPC so if it doesn't work... if it does someone has got a bargain  :-)
