Man pays £450 for Xbox on Ebay and get's a photo of one instead
A young father who paid £450 for what he thought was an Xbox One on eBay was sent a photo of the new console instead.

Yup. But the moral of this story is to read the listings on Ebay properly.

The new one is a right ripoff IMO, and the old games, many costing £30-£40 each, will not play on it. We have about 600 quidsworth here in our house, and that's without my steering wheel and pedals, plus about 10 controllers, which are not compatible either.
I have just bought a new 250gig 360 at a great price.
They can stick the new one.

I very rarely play the 360 that I have here. It will get one hours play every month or so then thats it. I did have fun playing GTA5 a couple of months back, but completed that in 3 weeks.
Couple of mates have ordered the new one which one gets as a christmas present and the other gets on the 16th due to no stock anywhere!
I cant justify paying out £400-500 for one when I am getting married in June/July.... I think she will kill me if I say I am short on wedding funds but I have a brand new xbox one and games which cost around £50 each!

A decent PC connected to your TV pisses on any console
Plus games are far cheaper

I'm getting fed up with cowboy sellers on Ebay and Amazon. I don't even buy much off these sites but when I do, a lot of time the items are either poor quality or the sellers try and shaft you.
Bought an item of clothing off Ebay and to be fair it was a decent purchase so I ordered the same item but of a different colour. The quality was nowhere near the previous item and the zip broke after a week.
Bought five energy saving "long-life" R50 bulbs off Amazon. One didn't work and came in tampered packaging and one lasted about a week. Sent the seller an email to explain this and received an email a few days later saying they'll respond in 24 hours.
They never did so I left them negative feedback a few days later.
An email rapidly reached my inbox with a promise of replacements bulbs and a request to remove the feedback. The bulbs arrived the next day. As for the negative feedback I sent - well, that remained.
Serves them right for trying to rip me off.
