  • Found someone selling a couple of NES games two days ago:

    - complete Panic Restaurant

    - complete Little Samson

    - complete Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tournament Fighters

    - Snow Brothers with box, no manual

    - complete Zombie Nation

    - complete Bubble Bobble Part 2



    I asked him how much he wanted for them and he said $750. I kept emailing him asking when and where I can pick them up and he kept telling me he was at work or he would let me know later. I haven't heard from him since.

    All the photos were taken with the same background. I doubt someone would waste their time doing that.

    You'd be very surprised at the lengths some people will go to for a cheap laugh.




  • It's definitely a troll. If you have those games, you know what they're worth.

    Maybe if they only have 1 of them they might have had it since they were a kid and don't know the value. But yeah, if they have all of those, there's no chance they don't know what they have. Fuck people on craigslist. Half never respond and are time wasters.

    If people don't put a number you can reach them at I don't even expect a response anymore.

    I mentally placed a comman in 2 separate locations when reading this:



    1. If people don't put a number you can reach them at, I don't even expect a response anymore.

    2. If people don't put a number, you can reach them at "I don't even expect a response anymore".



    Gave me a good laugh.


  • I've put up adds on Craigslist with rare games in them time to time just to see exactly how many people in my area are looking at these adds. Just a quick tool to find out about your competition in the area.

    What do you do when someone buys them from you? You just lose the games?
  • I was 5 minutes late on this one this morning even though I responded within 15 minutes of it being posted. I have wanted a decently priced 3DO for a while but one of the local resellers snatched it up first.

    So I found an Atari 5200 for next to nothing... then I woke up

    Saw one at a Habitat for Humanity Re Store for $15 with broken controllers and passed on it.  Came back later to see if it was still there, but no

     



    Restores get in games? I thought they were just hardware and stuff. One ten minutes from me...


  • Gahh nothing feels as bad as being sniped.



    I was bidding on a sealed copy of Vanguard Bandits and was winning but got sniped 10 seconds before bid end. Worst ... feeling ... ever!
  • Just missed a huge NES lot with about 50 games. Mostly commons but he did have 2 heavy hitters:



    Ducktales 2

    Cheetahmen 2



    Both had boxes. $100
  • A Dude I know was walking out of a garage sale with this and 5-10 CIB games for $30 the other day... He's from my church and is always giving me crap about how games are a waste of time... Ticks me off! atleast I know he's not gonna sell it for that! haha

  • Missed out on a sealed Chrono Trigger, CIB Secret of Mana, CIB Lost Vikings, CIB Final Fantasy II & III for $200 at a local game store... Came a few hours after and they had scraps left over, the employee looks at me and tells me that he bought all the good stuff earlier that day. He laughed. I cringed.



    FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

    No I put it up for offer. That way I can see what kind of prices poeple are offering on stuff too. I put a lot up the other day with F2 and Snow Brothers in it and a system and 30 more games. I'd say I got atleast 26 offer of 50 or less in 8 hours. Kinda made me sad to know there were that many poeple in my area.
  • I found pokemon soul sliver on cragislist for 5 bucks by the time i texted the guy it was sold already lets just say pissed off does not even begin to describe how i feel since ive been scouring my local Craigslist for a month for that game
  • Missed a CIB Swordmaster, CIB ZEN, and Loose BAtman: Return of joker



    offered $160

    he said $180

    i said done deal, gave info, etc



    he said he would contact me today



    well, he did, and said someone offered him $200 for the CIB swordmaster by itself....
  • Where im from cheap video games at thrift stores or flea markets and such over here dont really exist..unfortunately most if not all games for nes,snes sega etc were picked up by collectors over here when stores stopped selling them and most got them for very cheap..and unfortunately back then i wasnt looking for them..Talking about losers weepers i could have got a mint earthbound CIB with all inserts for 265 $ a while ago but just missed out.

    That guy sounds like a fucking nutjob if you read the last part of his item description. "Don't buy my stuff, praise Jesus instead!" No disrespect to you or your faith of course, it just trips me out sometimes to see some of the ridiculously inappropriate places people will try to sell their religion to whoever happens to be looking.

  • A friend sent me final fight 3 and aero fighters on snes as a thank you for giving him a new tv,

    they got sent to the wrong town and to an address that does not exist in said town and are now presumably lost in the mail.

    I'd have punched him in the face, then kicked him in the balls. Repeatedly. Then I'd report him to his boss.
