Since is a hacked PSP with buttons MISSING worth a premium 360? I've got one with all the buttons still! It must be worth a 60gb PS3.

[Callandor]

Nah, right now it's only good for a 20gb. Hack it, then it'll be worth a 60gb.

He's been trying to sell his stuff for a VERY long time, could be close to half a year now.

What's outrageous about it? No price was listed unless you mean he's trying to sell a DS Phat as a "Newer DS"

I don't think that is bad, it's not like it is hurting him to have it all listed, it's like times when I'll list rare dvds on amazon marketplace for extremely high prices if none other are listed...and guess what sometimes you find that desperate person and it sells, if not you are only out a couple minutes of your time.

When you start asking for $50 for King of Fighter or Grandia 2, you are too over priced. I can get most of the games a lot cheaper from ebay stores or amazon marketplace.

alright, I just gotta pass this along
I found a listing that said : XBOX 360 premium - $300

The description says:
X-box very new cond. will all original ppers, box, cords, comes with 3 games cabela's hunting game, TWO WIRELESS CONTROLLERS, THIS IS THE CORE SYSTEM & WAS PURCHASED FOR $400 PLUS THE GAMES 3* $50 PLUS $40 EXTRA REMOTE SO ITS A GOOD DEAL AND IM NOT TRYING TO MAKE ANY MONEY OFF IT, BUT WOULD LIKE TO GET SOMETHING BACK. SO IF INTERESTED CALL 425 315 2796

I email her: you advertise in the heading as it being a premium then state that it's a core in the details. figure it out.

Her reply: are just being a jackass about it, or are you interested in the thing?? Its my husbands im selling it for him, so excuse me for not knowing the technical terms on the video game BS, maybe if you pull your head out of your ass and realize that people have other things to do it life than just sit around & play video games then you'd understand not many people know all the xbox terminology. From my ad I hope you at least gathered its the Newest xbox and it comes with the god father and open season too if I didn't list that.


God I hate people.

You were kinda being a jackass, she made a mistake, no need to
be a jerk about it.

[Friend of Sonic]

$600 is listed in the title of the listing.

Where? I don't see that.

[sp00ge]

Where? I don't see that.

They edited the title. It did say $600.

[fatbeer]

two psp for $350,500

[pHi ||]

i think he means 350 to 500 dollars

[DX]

You were kinda being a jackass, she made a mistake, no need to
be a jerk about it.

If she was so unknowing about the different types of XBOX's why did she state premium in the title and use the term "core" in the description?

[ravuya]

There's not a single wii locally that's less than $375CAD. Gouge city! It ranges up to $800 for the unit alone. Dolts.

There is, however, "PLAYSTATION 3 MUST SELL TONIGHT - $150". Hmm. I wonder why tonight?

PLAYSTATION 3 MUST SELL TONIGHT - $150

[/QUOTE]

Aparently an Atari Flashback or one of those bootleg things from the flea market. I responded with fake enthusiasm:

[QUOTE]Wow I am very interested! Its just a controller? How can that be?! It must be worth thousands![/QUOTE]

All sarcasm was lost, however, and at my feigned interest the scammer obviously smelled blood in the water:

However, someone was coming to buy it for $1500 that day if I didn't match that in cash. Its a shame I missed that opportunity! They found something else, though...

I countered with an offer of $2500 if they could ship to me in Nigeria, then they called me a scammer and stopped responding to my emails.

Its a shame, though. I missed out on an ariginal Sega with tapes!

[sp00ge]

LOL... I need to put up a bait ad like that just to mess with scammers.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Ahhh man, that is just classic. If the misspelling of every other word wasn't intentional on their part, I'd have to say that if the shoe were on the other foot, you could offer them a dog turd and call it a 'rare collectors item' for $1000 and they'd bite.

That reminds me of the person locally who had Breath Of Fire IV and the guide for it on CL. Every time I asked about completeness, I would state what I meant. And every time, they would respond with 'it has some scratches, but they all play'. <shakes head> It amazes me how some people who post ads online remember to even breathe on a daily basis.

Trying to find a good video game deal on Craigslist is like trying to find hay in a needle stack. It hurts and everyone is a prick.

I found a Mountain Dew xbox locally for $90. Tis a shame I didn't have $90 to spend. :(
