Hmm, mine was marked as posted on 22/11/11. That's only 12 working days out of a possible 20 they state in the description.

As I purchased mine on the 17/11/11 so have roughly until the end of December to raise a dispute with PayPal.

If I don't get mine by the end of next week I will email the seller. If there is no response I will be raising a dispute with PayPal.

But hopefully it is real!!

Hate to be bearer of bad news but this has scam written all over, this is way too cheap to be true & all of his previous sales are private so you can't see what he has sold in the past, but yet this sale is not private.

Also if you do get the drive what's the bet when you pc sees it under properties it will show 1TB but the drive won't be able to hold any where near that much data and you will have problems formatting it. How do I know this ? Well a couple of work mates have brought drives in the past of egay from deals to good to be true and when they received them they had nothing but problems. It turns out they were small drives but somehow the seller has manage to make the drives show their size to be alot larger than they really are.

For anyone that has purchase one I hope I'm wrong but I doubt it.

Yes, not looking good. We will see how good PayPal buyer protection really is.

Expect it to take weeks, rather than days.

I think we should get the money back no problem as the item was never delivered.
