Auction - FS Games with mans and cases |* before ebay.

[T2KFreeker]

BUT, BUT, BUT, My financial adviser told me that Video Games is better than the stock market because people are paying up to $10,000.00 for a NES! I saw it on Storage Wars! Plus, the proof is on ebay! Look at the money being thrown around by idiots with way too much money and time on their hands!  VERY sad. It is what it is though. Too bad crap like ebay has taken so much fun out of the hunt for the stuff though.  This assclown here that started this thread is a prime example. Oh, and Go Get Em', Bernie!

[Deletion]

Agreed, there are very few people who got rich off of their games, and they didn't make their money by reselling.  I think of people like AVGN getting money out of it through their creative talent, and I don't really now how much he makes, I just know that it is his way of making money in life.

I'm pretty sure James Rolfe has a full-time job and that his primary income is not from his YouTube channel.

[roflmao]

I'm pretty sure James Rolfe has a full-time job and that his primary income is not from his YouTube channel.

Yeah, he's making a movie based on his Youtube channel.

[khog143]

I thought I had read somewhere that cinemassacre is his main job now, and I just figured the main cash cow of cinemassacre was the AVGN character and series

In the behind-the-scenes type videos before he started making his movie, he mentioned that his "real job" prevented him from putting out more videos or creating them at a faster rate. But you may be right now that his movie is in production. It seems like he may have left his job to focus on the film. I hope it does well, because selling web ads and merch like shirts and DVDs on Cinemassacre is a tough way to make a living.

I know. I happily contributed $10! 

[khog143]

Yeah, it seemed like he was living a pretty good life, which is why I thought that it was badass that he made a living doing that, but I could very easily be wrong.  Certainly wouldn't be the first time lol.  I'm gonna stop hijacking this thread on this massive tangent now haha.

[PikachuWarrior]

so what were the games he was offering?

[soop]

so what were the games he was offering?

Just a bunch of unopened Magical Chases.

[khog143]

You forgot to mention that one VGA copy of Legend of the Hero Tonma.  The VGA grade made it worth like 1 jillion dollars, or something like that

I believe he filmed Wedding Videos prior to getting a contract from ScrewAttack that paid well enough to where he could devote his efforts to web videos and Cinemassacre related projects full time.

Actually, you are at 45 + 60 in shipping. You were asking 175 shipped, for your lot of games. However, you still have to pay Ebay and Paypal fees, oh, and some of that ridiculous shipping price actually has to go towards shipping. Its going to be at least $20 in shipping. So, right now, you are sitting at a whopping $73. Congrats.

[SMF]

I see your TG 16 has 0 bids. I mean its a bargin for only $108 BIN and a $70 start lol. Cmon man cant even take a damn picture of the system and you use a crappy stock picture at that.

[soop]

you would never say it to my face so why say it behind a screen. Grow up.

Like I'd fly to Canada to tell you what you should already know.

Even if you get a million Canadian Dollars for that lot, it still doesn't excuse the fact that you've tried to profiteer from a group of people who have helped you out.

Imagine this:  You're homeless, and you find yourself at a shelter, where volunteers give you food to eat and a place to sleep.    Then you try and sell them back the food they just gave you so you can buy crack.

That, in a very extreme case, is exactly what you've done.  It's immoral, it's rude, and it's a slap in the face to all the decent people on this board, many who have GIVEN AWAY FOR FREE some of the games you're selling.

If that's the kind of person you want to be, that's fine, but don't act all indignant when people dislike you for it, it's a shitty thing to do.

*edit* oh, and congratulations for being only the second Canadian I've ever talked to that I don't like

Alright man.  I messaged you and asked you to change your sig.  You choose to respond for me to suck a dick.  Dont think I have to say anymore.  Oh and you also added "Anytime any place" Shame on you swissy.  Shouldn't advertise your moms sexual escapades online like that.  We wouldnt want more fuktards like you popping out.  I seen a few posts back where you said "grow up"  Might need to do a little of that yourself.  And you will change the sig.  It is offensive to another forum member.  I was just giving you the opportunity to be a grown up before going over your head.

[swiss780]

your all the ones who started talking shit for no reason. |What cant take the heat back....  like get bent. wha wha wha...  who the hell is gail.

[khog143]

We started talking shit because you wanted too much money, whether stupid people on your ebay listings realize it or not, then people came to the defense of, from what I can tell by my limited time here, a highly respected, highly likable forum member.  You clearly haven't realized this in the couple months you've been here, but in the couple weeks I have been here, this is a community.  And, while you are alienating yourself on the outskirts like a leper, others are happily enjoying it.  I hope I'm not stepping outside of my boundaries stating this...but even if I am I think it was something that would be said, if not by me, then by another forum member.

[swiss780]

how when i listed them on ebay and there at the price im asking.... with few days to go

[swiss780]

maybe my prices where high maybe i over calculated but dont be all haters and shit.just  tell me, dont say it like dicks give me respect. you want respect then you get talked to on the same level as you talked to me.. seems fair?

[Sparky]

You earn respect, no one gives it, Your a know it all and people have tried to tell ya, it's to late you fuck up large. See ya

[VestCunt]

Feeling good about ignoring Swiss's offer to buy my TG Encyclopedia.

maybe my prices where high maybe i over calculated but dont be all haters and shit.just  tell me, dont say it like dicks give me respect. you want respect then you get talked to on the same level as you talked to me.. seems fair?

I thought thats what i did when i replied to your FS/Trade thread.

I said this.......
WOW REALLY? Last time i checked this aint ebay. There is not a single game out of the 14 your selling that is even rare. Also a TG16 asking $75? Total $225 Sounds like gouging to me and maybe just maybe your trying to recoup what you spent for this bundle.

you might get trade offers but i dont see anyone here paying $150 for common games. Not when TV SPorts and Keith Courage are 2 of the 14 that can be had for free or under $5.00.

But goodluck to you, Like they say a fool and his money are soon parted.

CPTRAVE said this... Yeah that sounds a tad high, maybe included is Bonk 3, nope do not see it oh well.

You follow up with........Who cares what you think.

Hmmmm need i say more, But what do i know im just a fat old fag ahahahah fagget (your words)
And yet your sitting there talking about respect. Hard to get respect when you dont give it.

[Bernie]

maybe my prices where high maybe i over calculated but dont be all haters and shit.just  tell me, dont say it like dicks give me respect. you want respect then you get talked to on the same level as you talked to me.. seems fair?

You do not deserve respect.  That crap you had in your signature was uncalled for, and beyond disrespectful.  This all started from how YOU responded to a few people letting you know about your asking prices.  So, we did "just tell you".  YOU sir were the one that acted like a dick with the whole "Who cares what you think" comment. Seems to me that it was you, that started throwing the disrespect around.  But, I don't expect to get any sort of intelligent response from you.  I am not even going to bother with it anymore.  I was mad about it for a bit, then I thought about it some.  I can't get mad at you...that would be like getting mad at a retarded person.  So, I just had it fixed. 

With all that said..  I still feel like there is room for you here and your gaming collection.  I mean damn man, we all share the same passion, the TG16.  That is why we are here right?  Our only thing, is that we try to keep the prices in the community at less than eBay prices.  It only helps us all in the end.

Holy shit, are you serious?  You would actually trust this guy after he shows just what kind of guy he is?  I don't want him banned, but as far as anything other than laughing at him, he's blacklisted as far as I'm concerned.

Like bernie, I hope that folks can contribute/be involved in conversations, even if they are filthy profiteers.

It doesn't mean it will be easy for me to trust the fellow, but I appreciate bernie's sentiment: at the very least it opens up some possibilities.

[Bardoly]

I know that I'm a new member of this community, but after reading all of the angst in this thread, I feel compelled to speak up.

I understand and share the disgruntlement that we 'gamers' feel towards all of the 'collectors' and re-sellers out there who continue to drive prices up, but there's no need to castigate someone who needs some money, has some stuff to sell, and offers it to a smaller segment of the public before offering it to the general public.  If the seller's prices are too high, then why ridicule and antagonize him?  Just ignore him.  I mean, if Best Buy is selling a new Wii game that you want to purchase for $39 and Target is selling it for $89, then do you go protest in front of Target?  No, you go purchase it at Best Buy, and you ignore Target.  It's the same principle here.

If someone needs some $ and feels that he can get $X from eBay.  I don't see a problem with him posting up his for sale list here before listing it on eBay as long as the posting is made appropriately.  Example:

"I have some extra games that I'm looking to sell.  After researching online, I feel that if I list these on eBay, then I can probably get the following amounts for each after deducting eBay's seller's fee.  Each game comes with HuCard, Instruction Manual, and Jewel Case and is in good shape.

$X - Game title
$X - Game title
$X - Game title
$X - Game title
$X - Game title

If anyone is looking for any (or all) of these games at the price that I listed, then please PM within the next 7 days, because anything let after then will go to eBay.  I am also open to offers but, as previously stated, I feel that I can probably get around the price that I listed, and I really need the funds, so I may not be able to discount very much.

Thank you for your interest in my FS thread."


If a seller were to post the above example here, I don't feel that it would be appropriate to beat him over the head, saying things like, "Your prices are too high!  Stop gouging!  You're an idiot if you expect to get that much!" etc...  A little civility can go a long way.

I appreciate any member who makes a FS thread here, even if the prices are above what I'm currently willing (or able) to pay.  I mean, current WTB threads far outnumber current FS threads here 29 to 9, maybe that's an indication that perceived market value in this community is lower than actual market value?  (I'm not trying to start a fire here, but I'm just wondering.)  I'm totally willing to join a community and even have 'member discounts', but that doesn't mean that everyone should be required to do so.




...my $0.02

[Bernie]

Well, your .02 is certainly appreciated.  However, it was not his prices that caused all this.  It was his reaction and things he said afterwards.

[Nazi NecroPhile]

If the seller's prices are too high, then why ridicule and antagonize him?  Just ignore him.

Seeing as this is a community, it's entirely appropriate to warn other members of attempts at gouging, and this thread didn't turn ugly until after he responded with a hearty 'fuck you' to those that said his pricing was off.

I mean, if Best Buy is selling a new Wii game that you want to purchase for $39 and Target is selling it for $89, then do you go protest in front of Target?  No, you go purchase it at Best Buy, and you ignore Target.  It's the same principle here.

Not even close to the same.  This is not a retail store where public discussion has little to no place - this is a forum with the sole purpose of public discussion; if you want one way communication (or none at all), stick to eBay.

Actually, if you read the first 2 posts made right after this thread was started, you can already see the antagonism starting.

First response post:

Second response post:

It seems as though the responses are meant to belittle the TC's prices (and the TC himself to some extent).


I am NOT defending the TC's descent into incivility as well as not defending the attacks made against him.  What I AM for, instead, is a return to courtesy.  If you don't like the prices that something is being sold for, then either ignore it or make an offer (and not an offer that is ridiculously below market value).
