I could understand if the profits went to charity or a research fund...




SilverWulf -> RE: $1,000,000 ipod! get it fast! (10/28/2008 7:28:58 PM)

The money is going to the Make-a-Wish Foundation, a good cause.

It won't surprise me if someone buys it to make the donation.




faerytattoodgirl -> RE: $1,000,000 ipod! get it fast! (10/28/2008 7:36:58 PM)

it as scam written all over it..

"P.S. The $1,000,000 iPod comes with FREE SHIPPING! The 99.9% off iPod doesn't. (I have to make my money back somewhere!)"

99.9% off??? so once you send him a million bucks he's gonna send you 99.9% right back????





sappatoti -> RE: $1,000,000 ipod! get it fast! (10/28/2008 7:38:34 PM)

I don't know if there will be any bidders, but at least 100% of the sale will go to a charitable organization, the Make-A-Wish Foundation.




KyttynTheMynx -> RE: $1,000,000 ipod! get it fast! (10/28/2008 7:41:29 PM)

The person SAYS its going to the make a wish foundation.  Chances are its going to the "i made a wish that i was a millionaire" foundation...I hope no one is stupid enough to fall for this...

yes exactly!

I give him/her props though. Atleast they are using a scam that tugs at the heart...

Nah, no idiots here. Just a hustler with a knack for self-promotion. Unless somebody actually pays for it, but I really, really doubt that.

pissdoll -> RE: $1,000,000 ipod! get it fast! (10/28/2008 9:21:32 PM)

brilliant....

with all of the free press this is getting, i am sure make a wish is getting a higher-than-average number of donations this week.


(in other words, don't be surprised if they did this themselves)

a very worthy cause!!!




NuminousLeader -> RE: $1,000,000 ipod! get it fast! (10/29/2008 3:44:05 AM)

It depends, if the listing is under eBays charity listings, then the person will never see the money.  eBay sends it directly to the charity listed, because as we all know not everyone is honest

Now if it is not listed under their charity listings and they claim it's going to charity, then it's fraud.  But the person has several listings all under charity listings on eBay




pahunkboy -> RE: $1,000,000 ipod! get it fast! (10/29/2008 5:42:28 AM)

oh wow- free shipping!!!




OneMoreWaste -> RE: $1,000,000 ipod! get it fast! (10/29/2008 6:16:16 AM)

Don't think it's being done by Make A Wish, appears to be some random eBay reseller peddling electronics and get-rich-quick schemes. It's a publicity stunt to promote his auctions. 




subrob1967 -> RE: $1,000,000 ipod! get it fast! (10/29/2008 6:23:25 AM)

All of you do realise that this is a real auction, and eBay/PayPal sends the money directly to Make-A-Wish, and NOT the seller, don't you?

There are people rich enough to do this, but generally speaking they have their charity donations already made or lined up for the year, and the method by which they make them, such as sponsoring dinners, direct donation, etc. so that they can track it for the government. Over a certain amount the IRS demands receipts. Somehow I don't think they are going to take an ebay notification of win or purchase email as one. The Ebay sponsored charity donations are very strictly controlled by ebay.

yes but the seller gets the money on ebay....not ebay...so therefore the seller has to give it to ebay....i dont see that happening.
