It really is no wonder that the fake flash sellers can make such a good a living

and why so many warnings have gone unheeded

Ebay buyers are just PLAIN  DUMB

take for example these ordinary USB memory stick auctions,  checkout the final prices, then read carefully the descriptions.

See anything unusual ? No ?

Then you too could have fallen for one of the oldest tricks in the book, that of mis-description

well to be fair to the sellers, they described the products perfectly, in fact went out of their way to make sure no one was confused by saying in the text SMALL USB stick.

However this is not good enough for the dumb, blind, driven by greed ebay bidder, they read what they want the description to say, and bid accordingly, this is why they bid £11-12

for uselessly small memory sticks reading MB as GB, let me explain MB (Megabyte) =1000,000 bytes

GB (gigabyte) = 1000,000,000 bytes (thousand times larger than MB)

So here we have the pictures… Did YOU make the same mistake?

No, of course you didn’t, but others DID and still do now.
