Is it just me, or do sites like eBay and Craigslist seem like they are losing touch with reality?
I happened to be browsing ebay when I came across a nice iPad. It was a 16 gig WiFi model, gently used, with a screen cover. The bidding was at $450, but the reserve was jot yet met. ***? They are new at any Apple store or best buy for $499.
Craigslist is often even worse... macbook 13.3 inch white... (so $999 if you don't have a student ID.) And the seller wanted $900.
Regardless of how awesome the condition is, the items are still used, and cannot command 90% of the original retail value.
Is there something here that I am missing?
