see this item; 5662820728
ok I don't believe it but I'm a pretty curious guy struggling and selling junk on ebay.
I wanna know what these people (there are LOTS of different people selling this same deal, secret world economy event ect ect..) are peddling. people are buying these for up to (and maybe more) 28 bucks a pop.
these people have 100% positive feedback... people who LOVE this info.
so I take it, all these folks tuned 27 bucks into millions..... lol
I ain't gonna buy it, but alot of people are... I'll ask the classic newbie question! IS IT A SCAM?
I'm a seller and I like this site... good job!
I wanna be a millionaire in one day and not do any work... gee whizz whats the catch? lol
these have to be a big time scam... I cant figure how these people have all that great feedback for these auctions. It cant be that good..
can it?
it doesnt seem like anyone is complaining. :confused:

Here is the link to the ebay auction:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5662820728&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch.ebay.com%3A80%2Fsearch%2Fse arch.dll%3Fcgiurl%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fcgi.ebay.co m%252Fws%252F%26fkr%3D1%26from%3DR8%26satitle%3D56 62820728%26category0%3D%26fvi%3D1
Remember, its all about marketing. Being a successful seller on ebay counts on being able to market your item, regardless of what it is. Theres no doubt that this guy has some information on how some guy made it rich with his auction and he'll share it with you, but ask yourself, if he made it rich as a millionaire, why would he sell his secret .... and only for $27.99 ... wouldn't that flood the market with the same process he used, therefore making his earning potential much lower?
Fortunately, the marketing reaches the people who he wants it to reach, people looking to hit it big, real easy. We all should know that in order to make alot of money, legally, it takes alot of time and effort and doesn't happen overnight. Most millionaires (remember, i said most) are in their 40's, 50's or 60's before they hit it big. I hate to be skeptical as you are, but in all reality and like you said, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Also, don't be misled by good feedback on ebay, there are so many ways to get good feedback very quickly these days (buy it, solicit friends, etc), the whole system needs to be rewritten (surprisingly, ebay has even admitted this somewhere that I read). He really only had 59 feedbacks, so in reality, it really isn't enough to make a good determination of character yet.

Reminds me of the age-old mail-order advert......remarkably similar to this. You make money by selling similar adverts on eBay/other places, and make the same $27.99 that he does, per sale. With 88 available at a time, if you sold all 88 every week you COULD become a millionaire.
Mail-order version was about stuffing envelopes....selling information on how to make money from it.
Of course - I COULD be wrong about this - maybe there IS a miracle way to make a million easily!!!

well I doubt a 27 buck tip will net you 100K a day... I did trackbacks on all his feedbacks for this item, back to the buyers and then went thru their feedbacks to see what they are selling.....
I found it interesting he has not one neg or neutral for this "information", so either its GREAT or.. like you say the feedback is a mutual tradeoff.
he also has a "best offer" button, so the price of his priceless info is negotiable it seems...
I do like the way they post the T&A chicks to get your attention.... sex sells it seems.
I agree as you say, if he can make 100K a day with this, I wonder why one would waste time selling 27 buck items on ebay.
If I was making 100K a day I'd be knee deep in hookers and chocolate chip cookies, not selling my info packages on ebay... lol

look for the clue on the bottom of the page;
Copyright © 2005 BARGAINWHOLESALES
now google bargainwholesales to see what they sell.
the auction has an interesting guarantee, money back if you dont make money when the key "world economic event" happens "sometime in the future".
I wonder if they will be around then, whenever that is?
lol
