Good point Chad... anyone here would know about what I paid and even though this box doesn't look quite as good as mine they would still easily ask $8,000 for it nowadays. $4,000 is a STEAL! Sounds like this guy is going to be listing a ton of great stuff though... let's just hope he's not a scammer... no sales feedback in 6 years on that ID... but still 100% feedback.
As long as Ant quickly contacts the seller etc, I don't see how anyone can really undercut them.
As long as they have the money in hand and get there now, Ant is fine. He really has to move QUICKLY, though. This is not a transaction you wait even ten minutes to start working on.
Really, this is the kind of thing where you either drive there now or get in a plane now, lol.
As long as you message the seller and make sure to pay immediately and request overnight mail, that helps too.
I wanna know how I don't who this is. If the seller is really a big collector, I don't see how he didn't find his way into Trade-N-Games at some point, and Jason would have to know about this guy. I could see if is was just some random, but this is a self proclaimed collector.
The real question is, who has 8K to just give up on a moments notice? I doubt a lot of people do, and that helps Ant I'd imagine. With a 7 day auction, people have time to put together funds, but if a side deal were offered, you'd bet the guy would want payment asap. I hope no one sidesteps Ant on this, that would be pretty crummy.
Well look at it this way. I have two credit cards. they are linked to my paypal. combined limit is 35k and that's just from automatic credit increases without me even asking for them. I can't be the only one. Its easy enough to charge it and then pay yourself back by selling other stuff in the next 30 days if you need to.
Besides 4500 might be just as effective an offer as 8000. Its still more than what he's getting now

I'm guessing its dean topo
and not everybody knows about trade-n-games. I've never been to that site for example and no disrespect to jason but I have no desire to go.
Hey Udisi...How close are you to the seller? Maybe you could pick it up and hold it for Ant.At least then we know the game is in a trustworthy persons hands.Just a thought.

Good point, and I forget that owning multiple CC's is supposedly a common thing. I refuse to own a credit card so I didn't even consider that.

they are very useful if you can exercise the will power. But hey you found your way to stick it to the man, good on ya. For my part I refuse to own a cell phone.
Go Bronty,I refuse to have a cell phone either.It is getting harder and harder to find a damn pay phone.People just look at you like"What is a Pay phone,Oh yeah that p.o.s on the back of the building!".

(plus all the damn pay phones are dirty and unkempt now)

You know, I'm thinking this is the old dl collectables copy. the time frame of the purchase and backstory (to raise tuition funds) fit perfectly
It is the DL-Collectables copy. I am 100% positive.
