Lately iv been thinking about getting a new computer from Dell as mine isnt worth upgrading realy. I was going to buy direct from Dell online in a few weeks, once I have saved up enough money (About £400).

I was looking on Ebay and found this:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-DELL-VOSTRO-410-QUAD-CORE-12-MTH-WARRANTY-NO-RES_W0QQitemZ130252986647QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item1 30252986647&_trkparms=39%3A1|66%3A2|65%3A2|240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

Iv looked through it a few times and can't find anything bad about it, it has Vista business installed, amazing specs for what I want, seller has 100% feedback, cost includes VAT + p&p etc, so I thought id post to see if anyone can see if theirs a catch or if this is just a massive bargain :P

Well, it's a bid with 1 day 9 hours left on it, so I think it will go much higher than £155 tbh.

Yeah, most people don't bid until the final day of the auction ;)

And there's no screen, by the way :)

That'll end up at about 400quid minimum i'd say.

Well the fact that they haven't posted any pics took by them (those pics look are the ones off Dell.com or something) could suggest some massive dent in it or something along those lines.
I suppose you've got the Bidder Insurance thing if it isn't what he/she says it is though... Can't see why you shouldn't bid.

It says they come packaged by dell, thats probually why theres no pics. Also, i know theres no screen... im not that simple lol.

That system costs about £400 on Dell, so it should be under that
