I agree that the simple fact of reusing pics isn't a huge issue. But he
ALSO reused text... which also isn't a huge issue by itself (I bought a
very nice Netopia router that simply used the info page from Netopia's
web site, photo text and all).
BUT... this guy slightly modified the text, in relation to the "value" of
the unit. The original web site's text claimed the value at $12,000... he
changed it to $17,000 on the ebay listing. So right there he is being
less than honest.
Also, which is the unit for sale? The Mark-8 or the 5100 precursor? The
original web site seems to indicate they are two different units simply
being displayed next to each other. But the ebay listing looks like it is
trying to say the Mark-8 is for sale.
All in all... I would have to think this is a bogus listing, or at the
very least, a dishonest listing (ie: maybe there is a Mark-8 for sale,
but it is probably beaten to peices and totally non functional)
