"Here's The deal, you pay ME to get YOU trophies for you PSN account. You play a flat fee for a certain number of trophies, and I guarantee a certain number of bronze, silver, gold, and platinum trophies. This way you get the trophies but I do the work. It's 100% safe and this isn't a scam, it's for real.
25 Trophies- $25
35 Trophies-$30-(possible platinum!)
50 Trophies-$45 with one guaranteed platinum and 5 guaranteed golds (plus other trophies up to 50 including other golds)"[/QUOTE]

does anybody in the world give enough of a shit about trophies to pay anyone any amount of money, let alone allow someone into their house for any amount of time to allow them to get trophies for them??

I am literally feeling sick after reading this ad

It's perfectly safe. In fact all he needs is your social security number to guarantee trophies for life.

I can't believe this guy thinks people will buy this....[/QUOTE]
It's listed as a prepaid card. If you get anything other than that, you just report him and get your money back plus whatever code he sent. My plan is foolproof.

Yes, some people do give enough of a shit. Folks hack/mod their consoles/profiles or buy software like Xploder just so they get achievements and trophies with minimal effort. If story-based DLC comes out for a game and it doesn't have achievements, some people won't even buy it. It's completely mind-boggling to me.

Woah, so you're implying some people actually BUY DLC?

you just boggled my mind.
 
[quote name='yantelope']Wow, how many Xbox codes are even worth $20? So stupid.[/QUOTE]

You mean actually worth $20? Very little.

How many DLC codes that have gone for $20 or more? Lots.

Coming to mind of recent memory, Bayonetta DLC for Anarchy Reigns and that armor for Halo 4.

I think what's sad is how I looked for a used old fat Xbox to buy, now here's what I think is stupid, a new one is 110$ but it's hard to find a new one anymore, so I go on craigslist by some magical power people think "oh it's old so it's vintage and I can get more " no you can't sorry. I saw a 20gb fat old Xbox with 2 old controllers worn out mind you for 130$ no I'm sorry that's not how we price things, it was more like 70$ maybe 60$. And another one is borderlands 2 for 35$ best buy has it for the same price hell it would be easier just to go to best buy, you gotta grab people's attention, now 25$ or 20$ now we are cooking

[quote name='ZombieToast']Some people even preorder it![/QUOTE]

I am fine with free incentive DLC
I am personally disgusted with most DLC, ESPECIALLY Assassin's creed II Sequences 12 & 13 I believer had to be purchased so they sold an incomplete game to you and expected you to pay more for the whole thing.

That's like selling me a Car and then saying for $50 here's the Gas tank! Or with Capcom, pay me $100 to use the stereo!

However if the DLC is more like like something unneeded but nice to have (e.g. a/c, power windows et cetera then it is not so bad, specifically if it was developed post release

Back on Topic:

$300 for a working ps1 2 broken ps1's and 7 games

http://harrisburg.craigslist.org/vgm/3725827337.html

all can be had for less than $100 on a bad day

Nah. Looking at the map that was posted, I'm guessing the person who posted used a random address in that neighborhood, and when the person/people show up, their asses are getting robbed/shot by someone waiting in the shadows.

besides ITS A TRAP meme being appropriate here. i question the intelligence of anyone that cant figure out to use a playstation or that she cant figure out she can sell it or why said ex-boyfriend would leave a ps3....i mean if you arent going to be getting sex theres no reason not to video game.

can we hurry up and invent a "only kills stupid people virus"

Good way to get the shit beat out of you when her jealous x BF comes up at the same time you're getting the PS3.

Not to mention consider she is stating at the same time that it's not hers. You are actually taking possession of stolen property knowingly.

It's the equivalent of giving out your roomates possessions away because you got mad at them and trying to be spiteful. You could face criminal charges or get caught up in the middle of a police report.

My point is there's a 99% chance of there not even being a PS3 at all. Just baiting idiots for an easy robbery.

Oh I know. I'm just bored and would go for the fun. If I had a CCW and friends lol.
I would play a game of reverse bait with them. They baited themselves into me.

It still could be legit also. Couples do spiteful things like that all the time when things get nasty. But yeah unless you want a adrenaline rush I'd stay far away.
 
I read that a pissed off Wife did an estate sale on all of her cheating husband's possessions while he was out on a "business" trip with his mistress. She also sold the house and moved if I recall. :lol:

I would think the #1 rule of robbing someone is the fact that you know they'll have money on them for you to take. If you're giving away something they could just as easily have nothing on them and just show up to get the console thus making the whole thing pointless.

I'm not neccesarily arguing that there is a PS3 involved who knows it probably is b.s. but if the purpose was to rob somebody you would probably want to be selling something to where they'd have to bring money.
 
Ugh so much trash recently on Craigsist.

Had someone ask me if I'd trade my PS3 for a snake. Was selling a monitor for $140 and someone asked if I'd haggle down to $50. Selling an external hard drive and someone called to ask if I'd go lower on the price and then told me they have no money but they'd think about it.

So I figure that it's just that people in my area are poor/grimy. Nope. Had a buyer set up a fake meeting for me to buy something.

What I've found recently is that you're only on that website if you desperately need money, you're bored, you're a troll, or you're a scumbag.

Money isn't the only thing that can be robbed lol. If by chance they had nothing on them they could easily be jumped for their car
 
Hah, I just had some jackhole offer me an old Xbox with a broken drive for my Virtua Cop 2 coin-op. I'm sure he'd like me to deliver the machine too... ugh.

Exactly. Most people carry at least some cash, a cell phone, etc.
 
I have been shopping for a cheap used car. I test drove one Saturday morning that had been listed for 3000. The guy told me they had an offer for 3500, so that was the lowest they would go. When I email them to tell them we had found a different car, he responded to let him know if I knew anyone else who was looking, and he'd come down on the price. ?
