Let's hope it doesn't end like the last lulz...  I think the "market price" of Dynastic Hero got doubled...

I think that's almost double what the last copy of the booby game sold for on ebay.  :roll:

geise when you put yours up on eBay create it with a BIN for $246 shipped.  That should piss off the $247 guy.   :dance:

Quote from: turboswimbz on 11/16/2012, 10:13 PMthat place is like 10 minutes from me. direct marketing? it's a freaking warehouse that buys crap that others can't get rid of . . . . like said book.
I was curious to find out what the deal was with those worthless books.  Here is what I found out:
The publisher has an automated program to grab wikipedia articles and automatically edit them into a "book".  The publisher software then gets the proper ISBN number and then here is the scammy part:  The books are only printed on a "on demand" basis so someone has to actually order them before they will be printed.  People then request the books through a public or university library and the automatic systems in place there buys them (from Amazon).  After a publisher sells a certain number of books through Amazon they will start automatically stocking physical copies of the book.  That is what has happened and now Amazon has caught on and has dumped the worthless books off to a company that buys overstocked stuff.  Unfortunately the new owner of the books has no idea that they are worthless and will probably just dump them off on another company in a year or so.

That's pretty scuffed up for something only used once or twice..... how does the system get wear and tear while stored in a box?

That's what I was saying, and how does the handle rip after being in storage for so long

NecroPhile

I can see the outside of the box getting jacked up from being shuffled around on the shelf, though obviously not if it was stored inside another box.

Clearly, the seller participates in XTREME GAMING and played TG-16 whilst scaling a frozen cliff.

Yeah he pulled the one game down and slapped the other bootleg up lol. I dropped a email off to Sega also linking to the first auction.

xcrement5x

I submitted a $5 offer with this message:

"This looks like a bootleg to me.  $5 is about what that is worth."

It was auto-declined though, I hope the asshat reads that message though.

I sold a game to Evan Labit on here. Why are people giving me such a hard time, I would never sell TV Sports Football for $70. Ha. Ah, it was a joke.
Pay my prices, or else!

Oh yeah sorry, I found it for 950 and couldn't pass it up. I can still give you 900 and it can be my players copy.

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere. You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

CPTRAVE

I offered him USD10.00, I think he is going to take it :-"


turboswimbz

that lot is got a lot of decently pricey games plus the cd set up, 300 starting is fine, I'm sure it'll go for close to 400-500.  but the 1000 bin is a bit greedy. 

70 for the pad.  -> maybe that pad belonged to legendary gamer Tom Peterson.

The magic doily raises prices by 20%, for those who don't know.

EDIT: Turbografx stuff only. Guy sells porn too, apparently.

Dark you are starting to worry me linking such filth to our forum, I don't think this is what was meant by gouging:

Dirty thing here, no seriously
EDIT: this should bring you to an ebay warning link: continue at your own risk:  the posting here is not for children, and prob. some adults.
EDIT EDIT: some of the items are really really funny however.

Also as a warning my e-bay didn't block the adult only items: I changed the prefrences to do so:
I was very worried when I first clicked the link above (below if your viewing the forum that way)

Those were listed since I first posted his for sale items....

Here are his turbografx-16 items, doily and all.

I'm not responsible for what he posts AFTER he posts turbografx stuff, lol.

EDIT: I went through and censored all the links. It would be best if you did the same.

Its in his bottom text. It took me a while to find it. That kind of stuff doesn't fly on ebay, anyway.

Right. He can put whatever he wants in the text, but the official shipping cost ($4 in this case) is what eBay will abide by. Hopefully whoever wins this auction is aware.

turboswimbz

ah on a similar note I once got free shipping this way, because it was listed as free shipping, but he had it written only the BIN got it. But i paid when the auction ended before he could change it.  got mad and shipped a duo with no packing material in a huge box. 

Backfired, because some how the duo survived and all the games with nothing broken.

Damn..  40 bucks to ship huh?  What a moron.

CrackTiger

Justin the Not-So-Cheery Black/Hack/CrackTiger helped Joshua Jackass, Andrew/Arkhan Dildovich and the DildoPhiles destroy 2 PC Engine groups: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook, then the other by Aaron Nanto!!! Him and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together! Both times he blamed the Aarons and their staff in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner, never himself nor his deranged/destructive/doxxing toxic turbo troll gang which he covers up for under the "community" euphemism!
