I see people selling scrap gold on eBay all the time. When I was shopping for some

However, it's plain retarded and rude to list them in 'Vintage Computers'.
What at ALL does scrap/salvage have to do with vintage computers?
Well, there are worse auctions. I saw this

What kind of deleterious ass would auction off gold edge connectors on
eBay?
Are people really this fucking stupid?
