    If this is not a scam, I'll have my first Movieverse bots in a week or two.

    Seller still has 157 of these left ...

    I just bought one aswell.. $14?? without shipping?

    sounds too good to be true.. almost no cost to get it- with paypal protect.

    Must be a catch somewhere....

    Maybe this seller thinks that they can run away with the money and they never thought about paypal protection...

    yeah, paypal WILL refund you...

    but what i meant was...
    theoretically,
    -> seller makes a fake ebay account with a legit bank account somehow
    -> you pay seller with paypal
    -> seller accumulates loot of cash from hundreds of people
    -> seller withdraws all cash from bank and does a runner
    -> you file a dispute after several weeks
    -> paypal refunds you cash
    -> paypal chases up money from seller who is now long gone and the linked bank account is empty.
    -> paypal loses money.
    -> paypal takes a hit or passes on losses to community in higher fees etc...

    so either its a really great bargain for 100+ people or a scam to steal money from paypal the company...just my guess.
