Default $240 Unlocked Pearl: Scam or Not?

Please Login to Remove!

I'd love to get my hands on the Pearl, but I don't want to pay more than about $250. I'm happy with my 7130 and with Cingular, and I don't mind waiting 6 months or more to get a Pearl. On the other hand, I can get it unlocked for free if I can get my hands on one.

So I'm cruzing some less-reputable online auction sites (i.e., not ebay), and I come across a seller with 2 brand new, never been used, unlocked Pearls. There are no bids, the current price is $220, and the "buy-it-now" price is $240.

The seller registered on the site on Sept. 24, 2006, has no feedback, and has 7 other auctions all for multiple units of new t-mobile devices.

What do people think? Scammer trying to make some quick money? T-mobile employee grab a few devices from the store? Stolen?
