Teen dad spends $750 on Xbox One photo

In what appears to be a cautionary tale about reading eBay auction bids very carefully, a teen dad has complained after he spent $£458 on what he thought was an Xbox One console.

Peter Clatworthy, of Bilborough, England, jumped at the opportunity to purchase an XBox One Day One edition console for £458 from what looked like a reputable eBay seller.

The 19-year-old admits that the item was specifically marketed as a "photo," but says the category it was listed under video games and consoles lead him to believe that it was indeed an Xbox One.

According to the Nottingham Post he looked at the seller's feedback and there was nothing negative. He bought it because he thought it was a good deal.
