Motorola V710
wow, what a bunch of complete idiots on ebay!!!!!!!
theres a guy selling 2 710s, but says will ship it (in small print at bottom) when phone comes out in july or whenever. I mean, can u imagine these idiots bidding up these 2 phones to almost 700 now. What a ****ing scam. When the phone finally comes out, the guy will walk into his VZW store, pay full retail (399 or so) and ship the phones that sold for god knows how much, and these idiots r bidding still.I should list 10 phones (9900,7000,8000,710 etc) and say Ill ship the day it comes out!!! Hee hee. I dont know what sizzles me more, a guy scamming or the idiots that follow???????

You're completely right and I don't think that they read that fine print in the auction and they only saw v710 so their eyes lit up like Rudolph's nose. Yet he is following every rules and guideline to the letter and hasn't broken any rule. I suppose it's kinda funny because bidding is a contract so by bidding on it they have to follow the sellers guidelines and no matter how much they pay for it now when it comes out and they see they could've gotten it alot cheaper then they'll ...
