Every time a new piece of shiny technology drops on the
market scammers are ready to get the low hanging fruit of
the Ebay economy. Unfortunately for Peter Clatworthy of
Nottingham, UK he dropped £450, about $735, on what he
thought was an Xbox One day-one edition but turned out
to a baldy printed image of his dream machine.
The 19-year-old student saved up his shillings to buy an
Xbox One for his four-year-old son, who absolutely kills at
FIFA 14. Though when making his purchase on Ebay
through what seemed like a quality vendor, he did notice
the listing said “Photo of Xbox One Day-One Edition” Mr.
Clatworthy still went all-in and got stiffed. What’s the worst
part? It’s not even a good copy. Come on scammers!
Would it kill you to get an ink jet printer?
"I looked at the seller's feedback and there was nothing
negative. I bought it there and then because I thought it
was a good deal.” Clatworthy said “it’s obvious now I’ve
been conned out of my money.”
In an added twist of the knife the scammers wrote on the
back of the print “thank you for you purchase.” But don’t
feel too bad for the guy because he paid through PayPal so
he’s receive a full refund for the Xbox One and an Ebay
spokesperson said they will “take action against the seller.”
Xbox One’s in the UK have been selling for Brazil-like
prices. An Xbox One day-one edition console sold for £720
according to the Nottingham Post. That’s roughly $1175,
ouch.
