Buy a new laptop for £20 !?£$%!

I am currently after a new laptop and went to ebay having picked up various other bargains on there in past.

There are quite a few auctions currently where you purchase a link to another site where they claim to offer you a branded laptop at a knockdown price - i.e. A Sony Vaio worth £1000 for £20 !

My 'too-good-to-be-true' defence kicks in at this point as even if one is brought in from abroad where is may be cheaper it still doesnt add up financially so seems a bit of a scam to me.

Has anyone ever purchased one of these links, or know anyone who has and if so what did they find when they followed the link they bought? Did you get what you were expecting?

Julian.
