anyone ever bid on ebay for a link to a site, where u can buy the product really cheap? I think its called straight line matrix. Its where u wait in line, and every 15 people who pay, the first person who signed up gets the product, and so forth..

has anyone used this? I want this camera really bad, but have no clue on if its a scam or not..

I have never heard of that before. It could be possible but it sounds a bit fishy to me. I thought you could only bid on items directly on ebay (fixed price or auction style/dutch auctions). Have you looked at the feedback of the person selling this link to bid on the item?

Yes, and its 100% posititive feedback, but they cant garuntee i will get it, since they arent the owners of the site. It looks like everyones satisfied, but they said it could be months before the product arrives...

If I were you I would look elsewhere for the camera. Just keeping checking ebay and maybe someone might have one for sale that you can buy at a fixed price or at a regular auction.

I paid for a link on ebay to a matrix for a games console and I can say it does not seem to be a scam as I know people who have already received their consoles. However, you have to bear in mind that you may wait a long time for your 'reward' once you pay - it takes a while to get to the top of a matrix - in my case its been 3 weeks, but I'm now right near the top of the list so not many more days to wait I hope.

The matrix I joined is a UK one at www.jointhematrix.co.uk (just so you can get an idea of what it's all about).

I would say it's worthwhile paying for the webpage link, so long as you're only paying a very small amount.
