@shelladdicted It'd be a scam when you actually say that it's a terabyte-sized drive, while it's just a gigabyte-sized one.

@systemctl say what you want, but if you write a wrong description (aka typo) on purpose IS SCAM.
if it is a real typo (not on purpose) then is not your fault and you're lucky. -
@shelladdicted As I understand, the OP wrote:
- Sell 1000 MB drive
- Write "it's a 1000 MB drive"
- Price it like a Terabyte drive (so that people *think* the seller had a typo)
Have I misunderstood something? :o -
@systemctl in this way is NOT a scam and the customer that pays is an idiot.
so you are fine. -

@Alice i think a 1MB drive may be more expensive than a 1GB drive, since its older and more "antique". No idea tho, just guessing
-
@JiggleTits most likely, as you have to give a custom command for it manufacture as probably no one make those low storage drives anymore (efficiency reasons i believe)

> exact definition of a scam
Why do you think so? If the listing says 1000 MB and the drive in fact has a capacity of ~1000MB then it is not a scam, no matter what the price is; If someone is willing to pay $100 for 1GB then let them :)
Sell 1000MB drives at the price of a 1000GB drive, and some people may think its a typo.
I'm about to get rich.
