(1/3) > >>

5065AGuru:
Hi, There is an HP 5065A on ebay right now that must be a scam!
Item 404011176065 from the UK.
I happen to have the exact same unit under repair on my work bench right now!
So don't bid on it!

Cheers,

Corby

This seems to be the auction:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/404011176065

Seller has 0 feedback ratings, no feedback comments and was created on Nov-22-22.

Oddly enough, the "View items for sale" link doesn't list any items:

https://www.ebay.com/sch/alcar_4062/m.html

I found another hi-res picture of a 5065A on this page:

Direct link to pic:

but it has a different serial number.

5065AGuru:
Looking through my records shows the unit sold on eBay back in August. I suspect that is where the pictures were obtained.
eBay has been notified, will see if they take it down.

Cheers,

Corby

I have checked their rules and anyone can use your pictures from ebay to sell his stuff. I don't want to say that it is OK, but that was the status cca 1 year ago.

it might be real, people are MAD lazy

and its in your favor, if you don't like it, you show that the pics did not match, the seller should like verify that the pictures are a accurate depiction of the object for sale

Like the cheap one for a power drill to turn it into a right angle driver, but a very small compact version
