[quote name='davo1224']He's selling a mega assy collection for $250?[/quote]

I think mega assy fits the description quite well.
Is it just me or is level of stupidity on craigslist spiking today?

I'm looking to buy the following rarest and most in demand vintage games for peanuts! I will pay you $3-5 each for them, then resell them for $50-$200+ EACH on eBay!

And I demand they be in perfect condition! Please do business with me, I'm not an insane retard scumbag or anything! So if you see ads from the following, [email protected], please email the guy and tell him to go f&ck himself!!!


Im looking to buy the following games for $3-5 each. All playstation games must be in very good condition and must atleast have the case (may make exceptions depending on the game). All Nintendo 64 and Super Nintendo games must be in very good condition (no ripped stickers on the cart) Will pay $2 more if it has the original box and book. Here are the games I am buying:

Playstation:
Suikoden 1 (sells for $50-$100 on eBay)
Suikoden 2 (sells for $90-150 on eBay)
Klonoa: Door to the Phantomile ($50 minimum eBay)
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night ($50-100 eBay)
Castlevania Chronicles ($50-100 eBay)
 
This has got to be a parody or something. I think someone decided to "publicaly inform" those who might actually sell a rather valuable game for peanuts. If not, then I think we have our Idiot of the year.

Here, here to the poster who ridiculed that idiot! :applause:

And here's one that's not gaming related, but an idiot nonetheless that does not list the most important part of a product you're selling - the NAME/model. :D FWIW, my cell phone can do everything below but I have TMobile, and my phone was free with plan renewal.

I emailed the lady who posted the Dreamcast and copied games. Apparently, she didn't know that the games were copied and she said that the post will be removed. Stupidity degree revoked! (Upon removal of the posting of course).

Seems that the posting is still up. Maybe a hand upside the head is in order?

That one is sad WHY pretell? From how it sounds, it may have the Gameboy player attached, so that's a bonus, since that alone sells for $$$, right?

Albeit to have some non gamer selling it and calling the very stuff they're trying to sell crap, that makes it sad imo.

I wa saying the way they were selling the stuff was sad.
 
I just listed my Wii with extras on craigslist and said make me offers. I had some guy from a law firm offer me $100. I responded are you serious and he says "I really don't know what its worth. I would be buying it for my kids. I am looking for a deal for sure, but don't really know its value."

EDIT: He won't pay more than $125 because its used. I don't think so.
 
My mother bought me a Playstation 3 and to be frank...I really dont want it. I'm not really one for video games and would rather just sell it and pay my rent. It works great and has no cosmetic damage either. I just don't want it, the only thing is that I don't have a controller for it anymore, my boyfriend was pissing me off by playing it to0 much that I cut the cord to it.
Yeah sad I know.
Please call me with any further questions.

ask for Carrie

[quote name='IAmTheCheapestGamer']Where the fuck is 'inland empire'? That sounds like something out of Europe, but I know I've heard of the name before. I just don't remember what state that's in.[/quote]

The Inland Empire is a group of cities (an empire?) east of Orange County, CA that includes Riverside, Moreno Valley, Ontario, Fontana, San Bernadino, and Perris. They are about 40 miles from the ocean, hence "Inland".
 
Ahhh ok, thanks for clearing that up. I know I had jokingly searched around CL in many areas of the country and stumbled upon that name by accident the one time, though I didn't remember where it actually was.
 
I know old sports games are all too common, but here's a gem:

LAYSTATION 2 GAME - $35

Reply to: [email protected]
Date: 2007-11-04, 5:34PM PST


Playstation2 Madden '07 game. Excellent condition. Used a few times. $35.00 firm. Mission Viejo. (949) 770-9993

http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/tag/469042434.html

Price is firm? Really? Does it matter that I can find it for twenty dollars less than the asking price literally everywhere?

Other notables for today include:
Xbox 360 Headset (from console bundle) for $25
Gameboy Advance for $70
Gameboy Advance SP for $35 (from the same person that posted the GBA for $70)
 
Not exactly from planet Stupid, but very very close:

XBOX 360 S AV CABLE - 8FT - $20

Reply to: [email protected]

Brand New Cable in Seal Bag

Having stunning Xbox 360 Graphics via S- Video Connection for your TV is an absolute requirement. Play all games and watch movies in the sharpest quality available by using the S-Video Connector on your TV. Play high quality audio with the included Stereo connection or utilize the Optical Audio port for digital sound. The 8’ shielded cable also includes the more traditional connections for use with standard definition TVs. Having a Next Gen Cable for a Next Gen Video Game System is an absolute must for any gaming enthusiast and tech guru.


Features:
Dolby® Digital 5.1 Surround Sound output
S-Video Connector
Standard Audio/ Video cable for standard TV output
8-foot-long shielded cable

http://orangecounty.craigslist.org./ele/479311202.html

The sad thing is that this guy actually does make sense at times. Having a next gen (Hi-Def) cable for next gen (current now actually) consoles is a definate must. However, S-Video is not next gen. Actually, does anyone even use S-Video at all anymore?

Yes, they guy is just BSing trying to sell the cable, but S-Video is (a little) better than composite for those still playing on non HD tvs.
 
I see that everyone else is jumping on the Rock Bandwagon business. It's great except for two things:

1. Rock Band is not sold out or very hard to find.
2. You can't sell Rock Band for $300 (or >$200)
 
I think this is the first time I'm ashamed to live in Orange County. Here is the list of Rock Band scalpers (complete with prices). The messages are all mostly the same (Sold out everywhere, gift of the year, I'm ripping you off, etc.), but the brazeness of it all just makes it truly pathetic.

http://orangecounty.craigslist.org./tag/484659542.html ($300)
http://orangecounty.craigslist.org./tag/484718672.html ($350)
http://orangecounty.craigslist.org./tag/484817558.html ($450)
http://orangecounty.craigslist.org./tag/484844412.html ($300)
http://orangecounty.craigslist.org./tag/484877325.html ($300)
http://orangecounty.craigslist.org./tag/484904540.html ($399, why not
just say $400?)
http://orangecounty.craigslist.org./tag/484963243.html ($400)
http://orangecounty.craigslist.org./tag/485072158.html ($300)
http://orangecounty.craigslist.org./tag/485111108.html ($350)
http://orangecounty.craigslist.org./tag/485204515.html ($500)

What's great is that the second to last post (for $350) goes on to say that the price of Rock Band will rise and that they are offering the bundle at a "good" price. The last post ($500) even says that your kids will think you do not love them unless Rock Band is under the tree come X-Mas day. I have a feeling that your kids will feel nothing but despair and hopelessness when they find out their parents are complete morons for spending $500 on a $170 game.

While Rock Band scalping is pretty despicable, but it pales in comparison the the PS3 Scalper Hall of Shame. At least they had pictures with people to ridicule.
 
http://providence.craigslist.org/ele/485251007.html

500 firm...if this does not sell in two weeks I will just keep the system.

Any emails without a phone number included will be deleted...I will meet at my house.

Brand new Nintendo Wii for sale. Box has never been opened, and includes original receipt for warranty proof of purchase. This comes with the Wii Sports package, which is 5 games: Tennis, Golf, Boxing, Baseball, and Bowling. These are sold out everywhere, and Nintendo has already said they expect another shortage for the holiday season this year. Avoid the cost of driving around, arriving at stores an hour before opening, and waiting in line for hours. Thank you,
 
This is in my hometown:

"I have 15 Playstation 2 games for sale. I am trying to get $50.00 out of them if possible. I do not play them anymore. The games are in great condition and all include original cases. If you bought all of these used at a gaming store it would be over a $100.00 Here's the list

MX vs ATV Unleashed
BMX XXX
Matt Hoffman's Pro BMX 2
Shaun Palmer's Pro Snowboarder
Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX 2
Grand Theft Auto 3
Grand Theft Auto Vice City
Smackdown:Here comes the pain
Madden 2004
MX 2002 With Ricky Carmichael
American Chopper
All Star Baseball 2004
ATV Off Road Fury
007 Nightfire
Freekstyle"

OK....someone explain to me how all that is worth $50. The cheapest I saw on half.com would total it all out to $45 (which may have been what the guy did), but I still don't get it.

And I HATE how people mention the fact that you would pay more at a 'gaming store' than to deal with them. Memo: Until you have a money back guarantee or a free return policy, you ain't a 'gaming store.'
 
i just got an email from a lady. i posted buying ps2 games cheap and she sent me this

Grand theft Auto 3 brand new I bought two by mistake book and poster never played. $20 I would like to sell tonight so I would have money to go out.
