Has anyone noticed the listing on Ebay for a Sony1042 with the pic for a G90?

It is actually a stock picture of a 1292. They probably didn't have a picture for the 1042 and just posted any sony crt projector picture.

That would be my guess, I don't think it is a scam.

The picture is a misrepresentation of the item for sale. If they are going to post an ad they certainly should at least have a picture of the same model.

I emailed this clown and told him his pics were wrong. he replied that he was fixing the mistake, then asked if i was interested in the projector.

Yeah,

I saw it and figured it was a mistake that the seller made on purpose Smile

You would have to be very confused to think you were going to get a G90 by bidding on that.
