How Could Anyone Possibly Offer this Watch??

Which takes us back to the question we discussed many times: How could anyone possibly sell the Calculator, shown on the right, for the sake of a relatively small commission?

  • ignorance
  • laziness
  • greed
  • dishonesty
  • all of the above
Five minutes of research would allow any possible seller to conclude that this watch is simply wrong.
