Ebay Phone Confusion.

Just checked the feedback for the highest bidder on my XDA Orbit. In
June '09, he sold four of them for around 20 quid each. Today, he
bought three within 15 minutes for 60, 75 & 80 quid.

Aside from the fact that he's obviously a weirdo, why is a fairly dated
PDA selling for 3-4 times as much as it was nearly two years ago, & why
would somebody want to buy so many used but good ones at what appears
to be top dollar?

 

Probably found a market in Africa.

 

Could be they are a company which have standardised on them for some
project, cleared their stock a while back and now realise that they need
some spares.

 

The seller of the last one he bought has five more on BIN, so buying
those would seem to make more sense if you or TOG are right.

this happened to the Nokia 6310, I think it was Mercedes that fitted
something in their cars for this model
We had a load of old ones from the office, they went for silly money.
