I clicked on this item because of the low starting bid (then noticed it was in hong kong...) but stayed for the description. My favorite part was the last paragraph http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-CW-5000B...item3a799080b2

The CW-5000BG operates on 208-230V AC, 60 Hz. If you use your laser machine in your home, you can wire two 110V AC wires together in order to get the required input voltage (Be sure to consult a certified electrician if necessary) or speak with your local hardware store folks about the hook-up. The chiller has heavy rubber feet that ensure quiet, vibration-free operation.

Just wonder down to your local home depot and ask em to help you wire a pair of 110v plugs into a 220v chiller, what could go wrong?

This reminds me of a neighbor I had about 2 years ago who had a dead battery in his car. Simple to charge, right? Of course, all you need to do is get an extension cord and cut of the end, strip the wires (with your teeth), hook to the battery terminals and plug it in. If he hadn't left the key ON, he might have saved himself from blowing almost every component in the car. Some people.... I know that no one can know everything, but if you don't know, for the love of god and baby jesus, call someone who does!

Hmmm. Sounds like he could have used one of those AC batteries!

why wouldn't it work that is how 220/240v works

OK. This is by far the weirdest thing I have ever seen listed for sale on eBay!

It is my own CD. But It's not my listing. It's being listed by someone who specializes in all kinds of pop culture stuff.

I just happened to find it because I was searching Google for references to my polymer clay art.

Plus the seller is "Zimmerman Twin" and my partner's last name is Zimmerman. That is very weird.

So..... should I buy it??? You didn't necessarily say if it was any good, just weird. LOL
