JP Buy it Now Bargain (Not!)

I know there's some love for this title, but really, you'd expect one or two photos?

Ridiculous. Must be the "big sound and big game feel" that makes this one special.

Addicted to pins.

Push Print Screen on your keyboard. Open an image editor, and go to Edit/Paste. Then crop, re size etc. Save as jpg.

Made a PDF first (cutepdf free maker will do) so I could size it the right size to get the info on a single screen, then hit print screen and paste into say "paint" and cleaned it up there and saved as a jpeg. Probably an easier way than that, but only takes a moment.

Must be like that $3,300 Gorgar US Import that those Melbourne bike peddlers were trying to sell a few weeks ago.

Hey Greg, to do a screen dump of anything on your PC all you do is hit [Alt] & [PrtSc] together then paste it in a picture editing programme like Photoshop or Print Shop Pro and save it as a JPG file.

Do you reckon he added the extra 0 on purpose or by accident?

Shame is it would have turned so many people away in the first instance.

Are you watching this one Steve (we know you are &&)?

Unless he puts actual photos up he isn't going to get a whole lot more than the $500, unless someone can be bothered going and seeing it.
