Online auction humor

[QUOTE="waflerevolution"][QUOTE="-_-Nintendo-_-"]

The funny thing is, Final Fantasy 6 and 9 are probably the hardest to find yet go for the least amount :P

totalgridlock

and they are over-all better games then III(US) and 7

Oh yeah. VI and IX are my favourite FF games (or X depending on my mood).

I'm actually having a hard time finding a good copy of VI though. I don't like the PS1 version, the SNES version is stupidly hard to find over here (actually it was never released here) and every copy I've seen of the new GBA version seems to be either really expensive or some cheap-ass HK knockoff... *mutters*

Oh....My....Lord...

Few things wrong with this

*Doesnt Work

*Overpriced

*States in Auction that it is worth $400 without console yet it's $6000?

Some people are so stupid. I hope it was a typo when he made the price.

Well for some reason the links not working but basically its abroken gamecube& 5 games for $6000

Wrestlemania x8

super smash brothers melee

burnout

sonic mega collection 7 great hits

super mario sunshine

it must have cost oodles to list that...

What an idiot.

What an idiot.

-_-Nintendo-_-

Wow.

What a bargain.

Did they ever even cost that much new?

What an idiot.

-_-Nintendo-_-

$500 for Buy It Now? Yeah. Idiot.

This one made me laugh.

I could get the arcade machine cheaper and pics to go along with it... also, I have no friends to go "hadokening"

Not even the other Light Warriors?

Black Mage: Don't make me hadouken your ass! Ha Dou Ken!

Anyway... I think it's safe to say that won't sell. I mean, there are probably more copies of SF2 floating around than there are SMB/DH carts...

I'm guessing from his wonderful sales history and multitude of items for sale at low, low, extremely low prices that he hasn't quite got the hang of this eBay lark...

This one made me laugh.

Ok I sent a message asking if it was a serious auction:

Dear just-you-wait,

yes, it is street fighter 2 turbo cart for snes.


- tehdescendents

tehdescendents

So I send a message of my own:

Dear tehdescendents,

Well for a start charging $15 for shipping is just beyond crazy. Second having a starting price of $25 is pretty much insane and $70 is just a joke. Try $8-15. I think you may need some more practice at Ebay.


- just-you-wait

-_-Nintendo-_-

So I get this lame brain message back:

Dear just-you-wait,

well thats fine, i sold one copy for $70 already. if you think its crazy dont buy it, I dont mind if it doesnt sell here, i always have people keen to buy carts elsewhere.


- tehdescendents

tehdescendents

And this is the final message I send to the fool:

Dear tehdescendents,

You sold a cart only of Street fighter 2 turbo for 70 bucks? Hahahaha, nice try but that's probably one of the biggest lies I have ever heard. I have sold a couple of Street fighter 2 Turbo carts, some Complete in box and the most I ever got was $20 bucks of less. But thanks for the laugh today :D

Here's a good one.gmsnpr

And $6 shipping.

Here's a good one.gmsnpr

At first I thought that was just a typo. Certainly the seller meant to type in $24.99 instead of $2499.99. Then I checked out his ebay store; and found out it wasn't a typo. Then I checked the seller's feedback to see who is buying games at these prices. And found that someone paid $650 for a copy of Metroid (NES). Great game, and sure it's sealed, but ... seriously?

Only the true collector can obtain The Grinch for the Dreamcast. They only have 5 left for $1,202.99... but the shipping is free!

BTW... it's valued at $6.00 on Ditigal Press complete

I might be tempted, but they said it might be a greatest hits edition.  For that kind of money, they should know.

I guess, Garrett do you have Lucienne's Quest ??

Good god I want that.  $2,400 is beyond me for this kind of thing though. So any theories about this guy and how he got the complete library? Unbelievable.

I was about to make an offer on it until I saw the shipping option. $4 postage? WTF?

New eBay policy. Any listing in the video game category cannot have shipping greater than $4. I presume it's to combat sellers who sell a game for $1 but charge $40 for shipping.

That's nuts. I remember shippng the PS3 I had on the market back when it was selling in the thousands and that shipping was like 60, cuz the system weighs like 20 pounds.

So, if your computer starts slowing down, just put it in a crystal case, then? (Read the second sentence)gmsnpr

:shock:

So that's where I've been going wrong all these years...

On an aside, I reckon the clear Xbox is the ugliest console I've seen in at least the last ten years. Except for the clear green Xbox that was around for a while. Ick.

That's great news! Now maybe I can get another 5 years out this computer before I have to build another one!

This struck me as cute.

Would he accept it for $100 bux if it was broken and a dog thought it was a fire hydrant?

LMAO! Sooo wanna read the description! Hey, FREE shipping. Now that's a bargain. clubhaxor

This persons description really sells the games for me :p http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/12-Rubbish-Sega-Mega-Drive-Games-Complete-Crap_W0QQitemZ290302648085QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_PC_Video_Games_Video_Games_JS?hash=item290302648085&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1683|66%3A2|65%3A12|39%3A1|240%3A1318hesel

Entertaining... but proof why you shouldn't post your eBay auctions drunk

I thought I'd resurrect this topic for laughs.

Now, some of might know that Duck Tales 2 is one of the harder to find NES games*, so this should come as no surprise...

Also, why buy one when you can buy two at more than twice the price?

Quick!!! Grab 'em before they're gone!!!

* Supposedly... I have no trouble seeing at least a couple on eBay each week at quite reasonable prices.

One (1) slightly used Xbox 360, Super Limited Edition, grab a bargain while you can!
