BY my looking at RAREchips sales feedback , it looks like he bought them under a different name than they are selling under, but you can fins all the sales for the items hes listing. Wink

hehe

The dude looks like he is trying to arb* and make a couple of bucks. Thing is, every dumbass and his dog thinks that, so lots of people get burned.

-or-

he swallowed the bullshit being pedalled by HYPER-RARE-CHIPS4U and in the cold light of day he realises that and he should rather have paid his electricty bill.

1 : the nearly simultaneous purchase and sale of securities or foreign exchange in different markets in order to profit from price discrepancies 2 : the purchase of the stock of a takeover target especially with a view to selling it profitably to the raider

I think you nailed it. Some of these IDT chips from RC4U have gone for prices triple what they normally go for.
