I see somebody is selling i9's already. I can't like to the site as I think it would get classsed as a competitor but it has a buy it now price of $1,200.

What does the ES mean?

Edit

Does it mean engineering sample? If so I guess the seller shouldn't really be selling them. I am surprised Intel has not asked for them to be pulled from the auction.

Engineering sample. Means it's not allowed to be sold, either someone is mocking the non disclosure agreement or someone is about to rob five unfortunate people of $1200 a piece. I suspect the latter.

I believe in a previous auction he has already sold one. Then this new auction came up with 5 more. Both auctions were the same seller. The seller also has 100% positive feedback. Looking at their feedback it seems he or she sells a lot of engineering samples.
