    It's coming from China and it seems to be unbranded/cheap make so personally, I'd avoid. For a bit extra, you would get a decent brand from pixmania.com or ebuyers.com.

    Also, this thread should really be in the Online Buying and Auctions forum.

    Id steer clear of electronics over €10 from china. Hes not got much feedback for a business on ebay, my suspicions would be its a new profile because their old one got too many bad feedbacks.

    Looks awful like the samsung NC10 :confused:

    The seller has only been around since March 2009 but he has 14 pages of feedback and 100 % positive. So I disagree unless the seller has worked an honest and successful business for some months just to do a once off and rip of one guy for 180 pounds is beyond ridiculous unless he is a fire breathing dragon disguised and waiting for a fair damsel to lure into its trap or Unless he has hacked ebay and worked a software scam to get fake feedback which i hope is impossibly difficult.
    That said it isn't a great laptop. You will want more memory and a 1 mega pixel camera isn't really something to get excited about. My cell phone has an 8 mega pixel camera. You could do better with a little bit more cash because mini laptops are cheap anyway.

    Worst case scenario its not you he rips off its the next bloke he tries to sell a 3000 dollar pc to.

    99% of what he's sold is 99p items, so it reeks of someone using cheap stuff to build up feedback
    and it's not necessarily just 1 guy who would get ripped off for £180, he has 24 laptops for sale at the moment (nearly £5k), and could probably sell even more than that before he's rumbled

    Also there is a good chance you will get nabbed with a hefty charge from Customs which would mean the laptop is no longer cheap.
