Cool, so you know those systems are rare and it's not likely you're ever going to see one let alone colo it?

Definition of cheap can differ..

if SOMEONE finds a cheap vps in Lyon, lemme know.

Don't know if it applies in your use case, but Paris is cheap 1.99€ and up.

Shocked? Isn't this LowEndTalk, where I'd get much more value by using a cheap VPS picked at BF instead of the pricey enterprise-y BS that is AWS?

It sounds like you've got scammed. Why would you think it's a good idea to send ID verification for a cheap box (from a presumably shady company?). You should've asked for a refund immediately.
