Become a video game douche
... so you don't really want to scam anyone, but something insides you begs the question ... how can I not scam, but at the same time be a douche ... well here are some ideas
FOR SELLERS - for starters when you sell boxed, complete, and sealed games always send them in bubble mailers or plain envelopes ... you will also need to go ahead and disguise blemishes that would otherwise affect your sale ... and you might even want to embellish or flat out lie about rarity - this is especially important when you're selling holy grails such as the panesian 4 in 1
FOR BUYERS - after you buy something send repeated messages asking where your item is because remember the seller has nothing better to do than track that $1 sale ... after you receive your item in 3 days you must complain about why it took 3 days to receive said item ... if the seller shipped in a box, ask the seller why they did not also triple bubble wrap ... it's a good idea to go ahead and file a paypal claim ASAP after you buy something so as to freeze up funds in the sellers account so that the seller can no longer ship your item if money is tight

Are you high?
I'd rather say he's pissed.
I'm sure people here have some more good examples to provide.
I won a nes game by the name of Chiller
i paid for it and i waited and waited for weeks
and never got anything
i email the seller and he sent me a cib starwars game
about a month later i got the chiller cart
it took about 2 months to get to my house from new york
i looked at the cart and it was missing the 3 screws,the label was trashed and the inside mother board was on the outside of the cart
so i got a "Make your own Nes Game" Kit in the mail
i never email the seller back and i still have the chiller cart
im selling it so look in the Buy Sell Trade area and find my add
Please beware its an ugly cart
For Buyers : Make sure you do not read full item descriptions, this is especially true if you are buying a lot of something and are too lazy to read through the list of items and the specified issues with said items. When you receive the items, make sure to demand "at least the shipping costs" back since the items were not in the condition you expected.
For Sellers : Find a picture of a complete game and post it as the item picture. In very small print at the bottom of your 3 page description on the rarity of the item (in red font, obviously), make sure to specify that you are bidding on the cart/disc only.

To go along with your sellers comment:
Take a picture of several games together, yet sell them all seperately. Be sure to use the same picture in all auctions.
Buyers: Wait 12 days to send payment, then give me crap about sending my item the next day instead of same day. Buy an item, then ask for some bizarre method of payment and payment plan (do you take food stamps? If you do I can give you 2 this week and 2 next month. Let me know k thanx!!!).
SELLERS - consider using the NES cart as a digging tool ... just because YOU can't find your shovel does not mean that those flowers should not be planted ... then advertise it as cleaned and tested
BUYERS - consider giving a negative for something you failed to read ... such as seller makes an effort to tell you that back label of cart has writing, but you're going to want to go ahead and give a negative anyway ... after all, in the transit that back label writing should have evaporated
Buyers, get mad when you pay $10.00 for shippiong and find out it only cost me $6.95, although paypal fees and ebay fees totaled $15.00+. Then leave me a negative feedback without even contacting me first for a partial refund or some other kind of resolution.
Buyers- Throw a fit when my cat pisses on your Q-bert, only to find out the cart still works despite a faint smell of urine! jeeze..
Charging me $20 for shipping sending it for $4 Media Mail and making me pay postage due. Then when I email you say you got a good deal anyway
For Buyers
Offer 10 % of the asking price on an item. I know you have Mega Man listed for $20 buy it now but will you take $2 for it
