  • A lot of bid cancellations just happened. I wonder if eBay decided to crack down on troll bids due to the press coverage? I don't think the seller can cancel certain bids, can he? (Not too familiar with selling items on eBay).
  • Just texted the seller,



    he told me that he cancelled bids to non-responsive bidders.
  • Now Im getting excited that this sale might actually happen
  • At the top of the auction, it now reads: "This listing is restricted to pre-approved buyers only. Email the seller to be placed on that pre-approved list. "
  • And down to 35k now, really curious what this will end at and whether or not it will be paid for. Guess time will tell.
  • Perhaps it's gotta do with a certain value? I once auctioned away some boots for several thousand $$$, and the non-responsive bidders, I was able to cancel their bids.
  • Back down to 32k now
  • There are at least 6 more sealed copies out there, undocumented.

    How so? Just because someone doesn't want to post it on NA doesn't make it unverified.  I know it to be true...

    You have seen pictures of his sealed case of SE then?



    How about the other 200+ higher end titles that he claims to also have sealed cases of? Having a few sealed cases doesn't mean he has everything he says he has. Until there is proof.

    I have.



    It's actually closer to 700 cases. Those that have been around for the last decade know that.  Trust me, I understand the skepticism.  I do.  The fact is, I am, and have been, friends with him for years.  There's nobody closer in the collecting community to him, than me.  When has he ever lied?  I know he's a polarizing figure but he's never lied to anyone to my knowledge.  I'm not trying to start a sh*tstorm here.  You can believe it, you can not believe it.  That's your personal choice.  He has nothing to prove to anyone.  I have tried to get him to publish the pics, he just won't.  He doesn't care.  I've tried to get him to sell some of the crazy high-end stuff, he won't.  It is his retirement and his collection. He is a collector and continues to collect games.




  • To be fair, if any game in the NES library has sealed cases sitting in a warehouse it's Stadium Events.



    Still, the saying is true. "Proof or it didn't happen"

    To be clear you are saying that you have seen 6 sealed copies of Stadium Events with your own eyes in his collection.

    They are in a sealed case...



    I just sent him a mssg asking him to post the pics here.  Keep your fingers crossed...




  • That'd be awesome



    I've heard rumors of a sealed case...but these rumors also come from a guy who claims to have a Family Fun Fitness: Dance Aerobics CIB (which if it exist would be way more than a Stadium Events)
  • Anybody know who the "he" is that Minus is referring to? (just trying to catch up)
  • Insider knowledge, obviously trying to protect privacy. I wish I knew too, but I understand wanting to protect the privacy of someone like that.

    Not insider, just old-school.  The guy has been around forever, and would actually post on message boards back in the day.



    He's a different dude for sure, and publicity is certainly not his thing.
  • Ah, still. Privacy is important for things of that magnitude.

    Yup exactly dude.



    Great guy when you get to know him. Got wrapped up in some things years ago and walked away from the public side of collecting.

    I understand that this is your friend and you want to vouch for him but you still didn't answer the question. Prior to today, have seen this sealed case of NTSC Stadium Events with your own eyes in person or not?

    Umm I never claimed to see it in person.  Nor am I on trial.  Thanks.




  • I'd leave it at that to be honest.



    There are 4 known copies without a reason of doubt, 1 other witnessed at Bandai HQ (pre Namco - Bandai merger), and 6 others speculated in the hands of a single collector/investor.

    I think that's fair.  Trust me nobody wants him to post the pics more than myself.  It'd be nice to see the reaction.  I'm sure no apologies would be made but that's another story for another day.




  • I understand the privacy issue and all, I wasn't looking for the name his momma gave him. Lol

    Just what he posted by. (When he was active)

    Hahaha.  Dig around on digipress I think he mostly posted there.  I don't know his username in all honesty.  There are some good flame wars he was invloved in a long time ago..

    If it gets any press the bidding will probably go nuts from people with no intention of paying. Sad, but that's the way interesting auctions seem to play out all to often.



    Nope the seller put a thing on there where you have to email him to be on a pre-approved list. I think he will legit sell this thing and receive payment.




  • Would a sealed case sell for more than the ~150k you would get selling them separately, or less because there isn't a buyer willing to pay that much?
