Someone just had the ebay find of the year: Exertainment/Speed Racer cart for $25

Looks to be a reputable seller so hopefully he will :) What's the deal with that game, I can't find anything on it. Is it really valuable but the seller posted it as a different cart? (as in just exertainment and not the combo cart)
 
[quote name='leecy']Pretty great find, I wonder if the buyer will actually get the game.[/QUOTE]

Nope looks like since you posted this it was relisted and sold for about $250.

That sucks for the buyer... I'm guessing since this happened in 2 hours, the original buyer is probably still celebrating and thinking he or she'll get it. The seller's not going to be that hurt by 1 neg either so it's a better deal for them (though still below what it's worth I guess).

Someone should notify the seller and show him/her the auction that sold for $500, just to fuck over the guy who re-offered the first buyer.:lol:
 
Looking at the seller's ebay store it appears she is probably a middle aged housewife who somehow stumbled upon the knowledge that reselling video games makes a very good profit. She probably has the I'm looking for video games for my kids (or grandkids) down pat!

1 neg will hurt that seller, it would knock that 100% feedback down. To me "opps I made a price mistake" don't go well. But I never negged anyone over it. I sold some Sega master system stuff that I mispriced but I still honored the transaction. Buyer got a 50% discount and was very happy.

I mean that even with a 98/99% rating, the seller probably won't see a huge decrease in their sales since that's still really good.

The negative feedback won't hurt that much but leaving her 1's for DSR's across the board will.

Where she sells so little (compartively speaking) only two low scores of 1 or 2 will cause her to lose her Top Rated Seller Status which will affect her sales.

If you make a mistake like this you shouldn't relist and resell immediately as it makes it look that much worse

Why do you think the seller is a housewife? The seller only sold videogames
