The seller says that the price for a new one is 250 Euro. That must be a bluff.

It is complete nonsense. This is the Millenium Sprechender Schachpartner. Costs about 20 Euro. Junk.

Most obvious cheating

Post by Georg »

It was sold also. But for only E 5.50.
Somebody here that can speak German should contact the seller. It was the most obvious cheating I have ever seen on Ebay.

A way to catch your credit card number

Post by Georg »

I wrote to tell him the mistake. Then there was a asking for my credit card number to get the message to him! Of course I didn't give it. The advertisement is wrong by purpose to get your credit card number!
