    Does this R2 look legit?

    Yeah but does the site generally set off alarm bells? I'm thinking it doesn't seem right, despite them having a decent feedback score on eBay...

    On that first link I would be wondering how it ended up with 3 Gb's of RAM. Probably not a big deal but is very odd.

    What interested me is that the tab in google chrome reads that its a M11x with a SU7300 and 4GB of ram meaning its an R1. While the site says its an R2. That alone sets off an alarm for me.

    Well, the same company have the same laptop on eBay too and they have positive feedback etc. I'm just worried I'm going to be a real beat up scratched and dented one :(
