    Are you the seller of this one-in-a-lifetime treasure?

    It looked to be about the right thickness to level this table I'm working on. So I bid $1. We'll see...

    Likely just used Intel processors that were pulled and faked with a 'double strike'. This kind of scam is just so common in Asia. Would anyone really pay $1,000,000 USD for 20 cents worth of sand in lump of epoxy?

    $245USD for shipping via USPS? Now that is absurd. I doubt they will insure for full value if at all.

    I had Intel Pentium 2-450, which in real life was rebadged Pentium 2-450.

    I have seen Fake "AMD Athlon Pro2200" chips which in reality was Duron 800 CPU's, but I never seen such P4 fake before :)

    I still can't work out if that is a joke or not.

    Normally I have to pay to have such junk taken away.

    Just bid the $1,000,000 USD and you will easily find out if the seller is joking.

    Pass. Here I was thinking Intel might be trying to regain some lost market share.
