Yet More Craigslist Stupidity!

[quote name='dmdragon']http://columbus.craigslist.org/vgm/1694510061.html


Not 1 of those games is worth more than 10 bucks new lol 800 in just the games? ROFL that is what? 53.3333 repeating for each of those.... My sides hurt from laughing so hard[/QUOTE]

In all fairness, he's saying that he paid close to $800 by buying those games NEW, when they were released. He wasn't asking for that ($700 for the entire bundle + console). Not a very good deal, but I just thought I'd point that out. Probably overpriced by $300, though

[quote name='Ichabodplain']
I ask about Mario Paint and Super Mario World for $15, since he didn't list any prices.

His response: It took me a long time and alot of money to find these games years ago. I drove all around florida looking for them. Id like $35 for each game.

:laughing dog:[/QUOTE]

You should have just kindly pointed out that that was years ago. There's no real market for collectibility in SNES games such as Mario Paint.

Well the system is 2 months old and none of those games were released in the last 2 months, or even year. So unless he bought some of these 2 or 3 years ago when he likely didn't have a ps3 then he did not pay 53 bucks for any of them. He is doing what most stupid craigslisters do, they see that new games sell for 60 and averages everything at that price even if they didn't pay that much for them. Sure they were all that price NEW at one point, but he didn't pay that much, I guarantee it.

i would expect to get about 1000 to a bit more for mine which is what he wants, only difference is that I have 55 games over half were games that came out in the last 5 or 6 months and 65 blurays.

[quote name='VideoGamesIzFun']I don't think you want one that badly. That is a complete rip for $200. If you want one badly I have one that looks like someone tap danced on it :roll:

And my contribution to the thread - http://baltimore.craigslist.org/vgm/1698539355.html[/QUOTE]

That's great how he wants to give people a ripped label but says that their label must be completely intact.

Edit: Though they'd lose $5 if somebody came out with a Rock and Roll Racing.
 
This ones a classic.

Hi I was wondering if you would accept $200 for one of your Ipads. I know i may seem crazy but I really would like to get one of these for my daughter so that she has something to do during her recovery. But can afford the retail price. She really would like to get one but we just can’t afford it and so I was wondering if you would accept $200. All I get for income if child support and that doesn’t cut it. This is so expensive for me to get off that. I don’t get that much. I will like to get one of these for her for staying strong and for all that she has done. She just came home the other day from Fort Jackson in South Carolina. She was in basic training but hurt herself and could barely walk. She hurt herself while in the final stages of basic training. She was disappointed in herself that she didn't finish it. Also now she cant work since her feet are killing her and cant stand on them for a long time. This will really make her happy. I will really appreciate it if you accept it. You would really make my day and my daughter’s day.



Also I am willing to throw in a pair of Brooks and Dun Tickets for June 26 at the Comcast Center along with the $200. They are in Section 12 row E



Have a great day.

Re: She's in the terminal stages of basic training?

Plz help my daughter who has pregnant herpies cancer and progressive whiplash, we don't have enough money but we'll wuv you forever. All my child support income can barely support my ebay reseller business, and now that my daughter is getting army disability I just don't know what to do.
 
So this woman wants to buy her daughter an iPad for $200 to make her feel better because she's too much of a lazy ass... I mean, her feet hurt too much for her to work. Alrighty then.
 
[quote name='elessar123']But it does come with 2 wired controllers and 8 (probably crappy) games....[/QUOTE]

When someone just mentions "games," I believe it's pretty safe to assume it's all demo discs and Madden 02.
 
Hey, if you want to play Madden 11, it's best to beat Madden 05, Madden 06, Madden 07, Madden 08, Madden 09 and Madden 10 (in order) so you're caught up on the storyline!
 
LOL The one idiot in my area has an old Xbox(that he 'only played for 5 hours:roll:)with 12 games and the 'zomg hard to find Xbox carrying bag' for $100 in the title. Yet they have '$120 or best offer' listed in the listing for it.

Apparently they had to let people know how great of a deal it is in the ad and took so long telling people about it(ALL IN CAPS)that they couldn't list the games and asked people to ask about the games.

I responded with an ad right above theirs asking what kinda crack they're on.
 
I don't know who got the better deal of an ad I ran. I traded (1) commissioned postmodernist poem (retaining all publishing rights) for .hack part one, discs only. Totally ridiculous that this joke post would have any success.

Will trade postmodernist poetry for video games (B. County)

What do you need? Dada cut-ups? New Sentences? Metaphysical conceits?
I've done it all. Can write things that make sense and which do not make sense.
Word collage, check. Repeating forms, check. Have some awkward feelings you'd
like to present to someone special? I can make them even MORE AWKWARD.
After I'm done, they'll never make you go the theater again. This in itself
is a service that some people might value at $20, but wait--there's more!

Respond in the next 30 minutes and get a free pixel graphic. Yes, if you like
deformed characters, you'll love pixel graphic with a side of misunderstood verse.
Figure out what RPG characters it alludes to!

[quote name='VideoGamesIzFun']Great success!! Maybe you should become a professional poet?[/QUOTE]

XD I could tell you a helluva lot about poetry. I've got a BS in Cell and Molecular Biology with a minor in Creative Writing. ;) Pretty much qualifies me to be unemployed, but here's the funny thing. Poem for $5 game pays better than publication, with a six month acceptance window and a rabid rejection rate. To make the jump from amateur to professional poet is highly political...either you have to win a few first book contests or go up the ladder for extra degrees and get entrenched in the academic feed trough. Then if you're lucky you get a cushy teaching position or you're paid to blab at seminars. I do like to tutor other poets--I've been doing it for years now--but there's a certain freedom to doing it outside of the box. Being outside I can pursue my heretic ideas of anime and video game based poetry...

Actually, it qualifies you to be one of those diabolical madmen who come up with creative ways to take over the world, and you would've succeeded if you had just shut up and killed the hero when you had the chance instead of giving him time to plan.

I don't want to hassle this poor person as they're clearly clueless. I'd just like to kindly point them across town to the Goodwill where there is an Xbox for $25 and another for $15.

EDIT: FFS It's down to $140

I don't think he understands the concept of selling a giftcard. No one is going to be stupid enough to give him exact value in cash for it to get only store credit. Sometimes people make me sad at how stupid they are.
