Well I just bought this from Amazon, described as 'Used, but as New' for only £255???

Is that what these things are worth? It looked like a bargain so I just clicked 'buy', paid, and then thought hang on.........things which seem too good to be true, usually are!

A 65" LED Full HD Smart TV for £255 delivered?????

The seller feedback looks OK, and Amazon is generally a pretty safe place to buy from. It's also an old, discontinued model and nobody wants 3D TVs these days, so all in all I can quite believe a second-hand model is going for pennies.

Hmmm. Yeah, maybe I was too hasty. Looked a bit closer at the stuff in the storefront and it all smells very fishy. A quick google shows that the actual shop is a men's clothing retailer.

It's possible their Amazon account has been hacked, so on reflection I'd steer well clear.

Scam scam scam.

There are lots of those "please email me to buy" accounts on Amazon at the moment - I report them and they get removed but it's hard to keep up!

If it looks too good to be true it always is.
