However, upon inspection we noted that they had stripped all the processors out and then replaced the heatsinks so that they would appear complete. I informed them that they were being docked for taking all the processors out and attempting to sell them as complete towers. They weren't happy but they admitted what they did. It all came back to the internet...Someone told them that P4 processors were worth a fortune per pound on eBay so they were going to sell them that way....It did not take them long to figure out differently.

    As Rick from Pawn Stars says "It's not that I don't trust you, but I don't trust anybody." lol
    Thats shady. And now they've always cast a level of suspicion! Why not do the research first, and see what things are selling for before you take a jump off the honest path? Sheesh!
