I just won a pair of laptops (HP and Dell) for $21 + 18%. Their status is unknown. I don't even have their model numbers or know how old they are. As you can see, neither has a power supply. That makes the auctioneer's claim that he doesn't know if they work believable.

I took the gamble mostly because the auction also had some items that made me think the owner may have died: A walker, and a shower seat. For some reason, I think older folks tend to be "light" users of computers and that these laptops could well be in excellent condition. Of course, this board is probably a bad place for me to field THAT theory, but it is what it is.

This will wind up being a really good deal or one of the dumber auction wins I've ever had. There really is no middle ground.
