Yet More Craigslist Stupidity!

[quote name='Apossum']I just hate the retarded posts like: "PS1 10 GAMES HOK UPS STUFFF $70" then the body of the post is basically the same thing with no description.

actually, anyone who lists a system with games and doesn't provide a list of games should choke :)[/quote]

This is for you, Apossum! :D

Barry Bonds rookie card for New Nintendo Wii - $1
Date: 2007-08-30, 8:36AM CDT

I WILL TRADE A BARRY BONDS ROOKIE CARD THAT WAS GRADED BY BECKETT (LEADER IN CARD GRADING) FOR A NEW NINTENDO WII. IF INTYERESTED, PLEASE CONTACT ME ASAP. THANKS

http://houston.craigslist.org/bar/409711051.html

That card is worth, maybe, $20.00 graded. Seriously, If I fell for this, I would get home, look at my card, look at my TV, look back at my card and be like "WTF did I just do??"

Personally, I feel like messaging this guy and asking him if he'd accept a Wii for $270 PLUS the card.

Seriously though, did every "entrepreneur" on craigslist wake up and drink a glass of stupid today? Let's look at some examples;

Case # 1

http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/ele/410369066.html

For sale is a barely used Gameboy advance with a lot of accessories.





Accessories are as followed: 1 game unit with white skin cover, magnifier

with light, 2 backup batteries, 1 car plug cord, 1 wall socket cord, 6 game

covers (colors vary), 1 cord that connects to another gameboy advance or any

gameboy, and also comes with 1 game but pending on more games possible. I will

get back if I do not get any games. Thanks.





I am looking to get $150 for everything, but possible for negotiation, OR I

will TRADE everything for a fair and operational PSP with some games or movies

and accessories.

Even if this guy was pitching a GBA SP, this would be a rotten deal. $150? Trade straight across for a PSP PLUS games/accessories? You've got to be fucking kidding me. :hot: Just for future reference, I sold my GBA a few months back (along with some good GBC games like Zelda Oracle of Ages and a few Pokemon games) for $35. I didn't think it was the greatest deal in the world, but I will probably never pick it up again so I might as well let someone else enjoy it.

Case # 2

xbox games - $200

8 xbox games for sale and 1 psp movie $200 or best offer will sell separat

http://images.craigslist.org/01010201041101030020070827fe29f9cb334cea562600ed20.jpg

(Notable games are Madagascar, Battlefield 2, Gun, Simpson: Hit & Run, and Outlaw Golf 2)

This guy clearly woke up without a brain today. He's charging $25 each for games that sell brand new for (at most) $20. There's even an old MVP Baseball and Sydney Olympics in there as well. There's a reason why some of these listings stay up forever.
 
More CL annoyances-- Saying "I paid $50 for Bad Boys on the PS2 when it came out" does not mean I'm going to pay that much now!! :bomb:

HAHAHA they'd have to pay ME to take that game off their hands.
 
Heads up, collectors!

Old Fashion Game Boy - $45

I have the Original Game Boy. It has a clip missing from the back though. 1 carring case and 1 battery pack. I also have a light boy. (if you don't know what I'm talking about it magnifies the screen and has a light to light the screen.) Buyer is responsible for pick-up please.
 
[quote name='JWZZR']here is a deal

http://westpalmbeach.craigslist.org/cas/408871249.html[/quote]

Forget goatse pics, send her to lemonparty.org......that site will seriously screw up anyone. And, if that site doesn't......tell them to click through the link at the bottom, which takes them to other pages with even more disturbing pics.

Or try tubgirl.com....which is a site that has just ONE pic from either rotten.com or consumptionjunction.com posted.
 
I had to bump this thread for this gem:

Playstation 2 Games- 9 for sale

Reply to: [email protected]
Date: 2007-09-24, 9:50PM EDT


$150.00. Cash only. Sold as 1 package. Serious inquiries only, please.

Includes 9 games:
-Madden 2003, Madden 2004, Madden 2005, Madden 2006
-Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2005, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2006
-MVP Baseball 2004
-MLB ’06 The Show
-NFL Street 2

----------------

So if I just wanted Madden 03, he wouldn't split it? Awwww...

Current market value's about, what, $30 if he's luckly? That's taking into consideration that he can even move some of them. I know as CAGs we despise old sports titles and devalue them rightfully so (as does Gamestop, generally).
 
Judging by the insane amount of idiots trying to pass off Halo 3 as "rare" and "collectible", I think we need a thread for Halo 3 alone. Here's just a sampling of the idiocracy that's running rampant like flood on earth:

HALO 3 LEGENDARY EDITION! HERE FOR PICK UP - $250

http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/tag/430953887.html

HALO 3 LEGENDARY (Limited Ed) + Helmet - $225

http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/tag/431248531.html

My personal favorite here:

Halo 3 LEGENDARY EDITION for XBOX 360, VERY VERY RAREEE - $450


HAlo 3 the LEGENDARY edition for XBOX 360. Comes with many extra DVDs, helmet that isnt found anywhere else. This was available on very limited preorder and is impossible to find now because it was available only for preorder. 450 obo, have it in hand for pickup. Get it now, because these are predicted to be worth $1000 by christmas. Again, you cannot find these ever again, the helmet is a super collector's item for the true fan.

Worth $1000 by Christmas eh? Well, if that was the case, you'd be pretty fucking stOOpid for selling at $450. Oh, and just to be sure, this is not the Halo 3 Xbox 360 Console, just the Legendary Edition. If anyone has some time, please call this guy and find out when he dropped out of school (I'm saying 9th grade :D ). Just for the record, my legendary edition helmet is numbered at 4xx,xxx. Not exactly a limited run in my opinion.

Oh my lord.

250.00 for an original xbox, 4 controllers, a carrying case, some cords that are worth maybe a couple of bucks, 3 games and a dance pad.

Although it includes a magical "X2VGA Adapter" that according to the seller it can "Turn any computer monitor into an HDTV Screen. Play in high definition in the following formats: 480p, 720p, and 1080i:".

Actually, that is a pretty sweet VGA box. He still is selling it all for a bit much, though.
 
Xbox 360/Controller/Halo 3 (NEW) - $380
NEW XBox 360 Premium w/wireless controller (20gig): $349.00
NEW Halo 3: $59.92
Add taxes and the bill comes to $443.29

Buy the console and game two days used for $380

I bought this new at Walmart two days ago, have the receipt. Nothing is wrong with the game or system and all the cords, boxes, etc are included. I thought I'd give video games a try again (last game I owned was Goldeneye 64) but just don't really have the patience/skill to want to play.


This will sell fast so be ready and act fast.

the price is good, but the math just bothers me; and you gotta know that it's stolen.

My store still has 37 Legendary editions. Non-preorders, too. I doubt we'll ever sell them.

HEY! Was everyone aware that old games, no matter the title, are worth loads of cash? Unload those Madden '93s, people!

Looks like someone forgot how to add. The total comes up to $188 and he wants $200?

Oh well.
 
well, for only the low asking price of $400, you can have yourself an original NES. but it does come with 3 games, and he's going ahead and throwing in all the hookups too.

oh, and it won't last.

http://sanantonio.craigslist.org/tag/438993651.html

maybe I should emial him and tell him that the store I work at has a few in stock and we sell them for $50 after they've all been cleaned and repaired and look like new....
