You won't get the first one for $100, and I've never heard of or seen the next two.

The first one is some kind of scam, orelse the bidding will fly in the last hour its up. The second one is terrible, and that auction is way to expensive for it. I've got a buddy who got that same one for 20$ on eBay. I DONT reccomend it. The last one looks bad, but i've never heard of it. Since you're only spending 100$ there isn't much you can get. I reccomend saving your money until you can buy a better camera.

I didn't really think that the first one was gonna stay under $100 but i didn't know. Whats wrong with the second one and the last one. I kinda thought the last one was pretty cool. I'm not really wanting to save up $300 because i won't be doing a lot of great and amazing stuff but i'll think about it. If i had to choose between the last two which one would you suggest? THanks for all the replies.
