what a nice holiday surprise  
anyone else buy a n210 from seller “occupyonline” ?  
They sent a envelope with a CDROM of ubuntu and some paperwork on how to  
install!!  
I know it was a gamble as he had “0” feedback. It looked legit, and to  
get one for 1200$, with ebay buyer protection, I am not worried. Ebay  
will refund im sure.  
anyone else get one from this Ahole ?

I saw him selling an N210 one week, then the next he was trying to sell  
an  
N210 + some Micro ATX machine for 2400$; I figured it was a scam after  
that  
one…

Report it to Ebay. If they get many reports they will act.
