I understand the entire "if someone bids/buys they deserve what they get" but I was scammed once on one of these as a teenager trying to buy some. I am no longer a newby at this so I know what to look for but there are other newbies that have no clue what they are looking for and won't realized it until they get this crap in the mail.
I used to be part of the fraud reporting ebayers that had a special email to send bad auctions to. Once it got so out of hand, and their responses were slow at best, I gave up. I think ebay doesn't have the manpower, or possibly the inclination, to stop all of the crappy listings. As always, unfortunately, it's buyer beware.
