The products are up for sale on an online auction site. At the time of writing, there are new iPhone 5Cs for under £200, BlackBerrys for just £43, Samsung tablets for as little as £47, and loads of other stuff - in fact, there are 47 pages of deals.
Packaged up Xbox 360s, PlayStation 3 consoles, iPads, and Beats by Dre headphones are also among the booty.
Each price is subject to change as people have to bid on stock. - and if you win a bid at a good price, the deals have the potential to be much better than January sales.
