Umm, you order from eBay, Apple, a WTB, or something like that.

I would say 99% sure it's stolen. What Mac user sells a laptop without the restore CDs, and for only $100, no less?

This might tell you if it was stolen.

better idea: try this instead.
if you locate the original owner, maybe you can get him/her to give you a $100 reward... then everybody'd be happy

Really, I mean what Mac user sells a Mac at all without the original box, case candy, plastic wrap with the "If you open this package you agree to the licensing terms" sticker in 17 different languages, styrofoam spacers and everything else?

If it ISN'T stolen (there are stupid people - some are even Mac users - who have no idea how much what they own is really worth), you can always try eBay or check the MacNN and MacRumors marketplaces for people selling Tiger/Panther CDs.
