ay ay ay, shroomy, just take the auction down. if you want to relist it and be honest about it, that's one thing, but being a complete douche about it and blatantly deceiving people is NOT cool. your apology is not going to be accepted by the majority on here. plus, you make absolutely no sense in the majority of your posts. i find it rather entertaining though. this whole thread and the actions / inactions taken are great!
Hai guise. What's up my friends. I come to you in a time of great calamity. I can't believe it. There's a third Pirate Booty auction now on eBay. This is utterly ridiculous. How do people sleep at night. EVERYBODY REPORT THIS NOW. Then we can make angry posts about it and gossip. Go go go. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150329987502
The only reason I ever put that game on there is because I saw it being worth more than $60. In the past I've tried putting a few games on (some I bought for $45 others for $25) and just seeing if I could make a hundred bucks. The same is for both the NWC repro and the Pirate Booty. I was not trying to piss anybody off. Although it seems to have worked rather well. And I most certainly don't want to be banned from nintendoage. I've made too many friends here.
Oh and yes it is true I took pictures off retrousb and just used it for ebay, since I didn't already have the game. But some games I've done in the past are games I have owned. I promise to fix everything. And I apologize to you guys. Sorry.

Your explanation?
I'm still waiting for this explanation. I'm not overly pissed at what you did, simply because I'm not an idiot and if I spotted your auction on eBay, I'd probably just say to myself "what a jackass."
Man all you guys need to get a life. ZOMG!!!!!!!1111 HE NEEDS TO EXPLAIN WHAT HE DOES TO HIS INTERNET FRIENDS BECAUSE THEY WONT BE HIS FRIENDS ANYMORE AND WILL PICK ON HIM. Come on guys take your time and utilize it doing something more productive than posting on a forum reiterating your first post 8 times. I if you look at the last 20 posts, its nothing but the same thing said differently. Again this thread is nothing short of people trying to be cool for their internet friends by picking on someone they will never meet. Dude hes selling a game on eBay. Who gives a damn? You guys make it into so much more than what it is. he doesn't need to explain anything to you other than the fact he is trying to make a few bucks. This thread should just be locked already.
And for the record that listing nick made is amazing.

no reason to lock this thread, but you need to get laid or something. you have too much pent up aggression. NGD is always in the mood... send him a PM
Ok, I finally decided to throw my $0.02 out there if anyone cares.
First of all, I've never understood why anyone gets upset for someone turning a profit on ebay. If they bought the game, it is their right to sell it however they choose for whatever someone will pay. If Bunnyboy, NGD, Langenfeld, Sivik, Necro or anyone else was unhappy with someone turning a profit on a game they produced or reproduced they should have sold it on ebay to begin with. Not pointing the finger at these guys as none of them are the ones that are complaining as well they shouldn't.
How much the seller asks for the game usually pisses everyone off too. WHY? If you don't like the price, simple....don't buy it. If someone else wants to waste their money, so be it. Why does this affect you.
NOW, that being said. I have two BIG problems with this. If he doesn't actually own the game, horrible. The second and most important thing is the deception created. "I found this game at a flea market" "I'm not sure what this game is". You know damn well what it is and where you got it. Listing a game to turn a profit is Ok in my book if someone is willing to buy it. Listing a game in an attempt to deceive and misslead the buyer into thinking it is something more than it is..... That is where the seller crossed the line and that in itself says A LOT about your character and your credibility.
The seller could have listed this game (provided he owns it) and just titled it "pirate booty" and describe the games on the cart with a BIN of $1000.00 and I see no problem with that. No deception, game is pictured and decribed properly. You want to pay the listing fees to list it and hope someone buys it, go ahead.

agree 100%... the flea market remark was what pissed me off from the start... then finding out he stole the pic from retrousb was icing on the cake... annnnnnnnnd the fact he doesnt even have it! craziness!
I 100% agree with Bum. I also respect Gundam Pilot's thought that we're a bunch of losers for bitching about Shroom, except for the fact that he's in the thread too, bitching about everyone else. I don't see the difference.

Dude, just take the game off eBay already and stop acting like a retard.

And slowly, all of the people who thought that Panesian repros in any form at all were a bad idea become very, very right.
check completed auctions...
the other repros of the panesians all brought triple figs... CRAZY! they ended in the last few weeks. 1 guy sold the set of 3 individually.

^^ omg this loser stole the picture too.. lol

Wow, that is a great return policy! Usually after the yam bag comes out, all returns are null and void. You sir, have a deal!
And for the record that listing nick made is amazing.

Either way I too agree with Bum, a perfect outlook on this and there is no reason to say anything else like Gundam said. Bum summed it up, end.
