I have a feeling the lingerie pages would not be scannable, seeing how they are probably stuck together.

$1000 Dynastic Hero (sans back insert)

And this is after it ended at $355 in a normal auction, failing to meet the reserve price.   Hmm, which price is its real worth?

[madboom0522]

Seller has a reserve this time at $750. First time was $1200. At most maybe $500 if not in original case nor back insert.

[NecroPhile]

What he'll accept as a best offer is not a reserve price.  Such terms have specific definitions for a reason.

Also, seeing as real bidders stopped at $355 the first time, it's pretty hard to argue that it's value is $500.

[madboom0522]

No argument here. All I was saying was if someone wanted it bad enough $500 would be on the top end. Their best offer price they want to take is the reserve as well. I know who the seller is and the prices they want are way too high. I have told them that and it looks like they might be starting to get it. Each time games  from them come through the price drops, so maybe it will get to a reasonable price and someone will buy.

A smidge of good news is always heart warming.

This listing made me ROFL pretty hard.

This game comes with the original jewel case with
spine label, very hard to find. The label itself is a
little rough but nonetheless present.

ohfuckyeah! Air "Zonk" TM Turbo Golf, sign me up!

HAHJA "HAHA"

Or, rather, "HAHJA HAHA"

If you are going to bother putting quotation marks where they don't belong, at least get it right.

Buy it now for $104.00 or pay installments of $18 over six months.  Is the extra $4 dollars you pay with the installments considered interest?  And how does that work, after six months of making the payments, he sends you the game with this shitty case?  lol

The seller gets paid in full up front; all the financing stuff is between you and paypal.

Ah, OK.  I never noticed that credit option before.  Not a layaway situation as I was thinking about.

[jlued686]

These prices on Soldier Blade. What the holy hell? $2k for complete? $4k for sealed? And the average price for "game only" seems to have doubled in the past six months.

Also, that Air Zonk case is probably the greatest thing I've ever seen in this thread.

[munchiaz]

that Air Zonk case is now the stuff of legends

[grache]

The Air Zonk spine label guy revised the listing and lowered the price $20.

TurboGrafx 16 Air Zonk
Jewel Case (not original) HU Card, Sleeve And Manual

(This item was revised due to an error in the listing
about the jewel case being the original case and thanks
to the EBayer who let me know.)

Holyshit... i hope you snatched it up at that price.

I'd pay $20 for that Zonk Golf case alone!

And Punch, your photoshop wizardry never ceases to amaze me!

I was going to do something more elaborate but the only program I had was this lousy paint thingy, so.

Not turbo, but Hudson. And anything over 25 cents for virtual boy is gouging.

Keyword: "can".  I mean, I'm sure someone, somewhere would.  ;)

[bob]

"Sports Tu Football" is an instant classic.

[esteban]

Q: Is it worth it?
A: Sports Tu Football

[Bernie]

Not sure why these sellers keep posting so off the wall listings.  That stuff is never going to sell, and they will swear it's worth it...  I just don't get it.

[bob]

I asked seller for links to the sales he quoted.
