This guy is completely busted.
Of course it might turn out the guy who made this site is lying, in which case it is the biggest libel ever on the planet, but until we find that out this looks very funny.

Hmm... I get a little suspicious... See the screen shot of the auction page, and check the windows tag at the bottom of the screen ... he is working on a file called "Ebay auction 1" in Paint... The evidence suggests a modded version of a screen shot...

Who buys stuff from some one with only 50% positive feed back?
As for the paint bit, could be not of been editing out his own details or simply saving a screen shot?

Hmm, yeah the pictures on the website are ebay auction 2 and 3. No mention of 1.
To be fair as you say, who would buy from someone with only 50% rating?
i know i wouldnt. For the record i have a 100% positive Ebay score.

Who would buy used hardware from a complete stranger? I know I wouldnt.
I'd only buy used hardware for some things.
Hard drive, never. Video/Sound cards sure. Most of my upgrades where handme downs. (My ma's RAM, Sound Card, and 2 Video card upgrades)
Aux. CD-ROM / Stiffy drives maybe, primary disk drives neg on the optical stuff.
I wouldn't ever buy second hand video cards for fear of it having been overclocked.
I also have 100% ebay rating, but I've only ever bought one thing off it.
Screenshot looks like a hoax, you sure this guy isnt lying? Well if he actually did it I hope he got what he deserved.
maybe i should explain..
The web page you see was written by the buyer of the duff laptop. In a bid to embarras the seller. I think it works quite well.
