Did an ebay seller really get $85,000 for a Rio MP3 player?

Please tell me it isn't so...

Doing a little research... His original price was $95,000 and he had been selling it since around 2012. If you check out his other offerings, he "spins" everything as museum pieces and over prices just about everything.

 

good for him!

 

I suspect the sale never happened.

 

Not a chance the sale is legit.

 

I was going to sell my Rio Karma on eBay a few years ago. The last time I had used it the battery didn't hold a charge and the case had a crack but it worked if it was plugged in. I found an AC adapter (not original) and plugged it in to see if it still booted. I powered it up and some smoke came out. Looks like my money literally went up in smoke.

 

Wow, I had one of those. Guess I should have saved it.

 

Karma's a bitch.
