Can you put up a link to the Ebay listing so we can see all of the advertised details. I was unaware that Dunlop made tools!

Intriguing router table - I can't really see how it works but I'm sure others will come along and explain. Do you fix the router to on of the black rectangles and slide it between the rails. A conventional router table has the router fixed upside down below the table with the router bit protruding upwards.

As for the router - Power Devil have been around for years with low cost tools. Mind you, I've got a Power Devil angle grinder I bought years ago and it continues to work well despite my abuse - I consider it one of my best value new tool buys.

The router bits look like a 'standard' set that many places sell (often branded as their own. Axminster currently have www.axminster.co.uk/product-Axminster-12-Piece-1-4-Router-Bit-Set-719239.htm

What about asking the person that sold it about instructions and usage?

From what I can see it seems that you paid a fairly good price for this - router, bits, table/guide rails. Also it'll give you some fun sorting it all out and getting it to do what you want.

Also try googling 'overhead router'. This www.sawtrax.com/page33.html may be of interest as I think it shows the principal that your system uses.

Halken, take a look on the Triton site at their overhead routing options very similar idea used on WC2000
