Yet More Craigslist Stupidity!

I sent him the following reply:


I...suppose I can see the value of that service. The thing is I can beat the game in less than an hour. You probably can too. You're essentially showing people how to beat Mega Man II for $100/hour. Seems a bit steep.

Good luck on your venture!

That's pretty high for a system with no games right?
 
It's a modded system so maybe. It looks to be hardmodded because the only other way to play import games was to use an Action Replay Card which costs about $30.

Collectable Launch Model PlayStation - $180 (Woodbridge)

Reply to: [email protected] [Errors when replying to ads?]
I am selling a launch model PlayStation. This is model number SCPH-1001. This PlayStation comes with the original box, and everything in it is included, such as manuals. This playStation has barely been used and is working correctly. Including at the bottom of this page will be a link to a video on YouTube showing this exact PlayStation, playing some CD's to show it reads CD's perfectly. These specific models also include RCA inputs on the back of the console, not available on any other PlayStation, which helps gives the system amazing audio quality, this is a GREAT CD Player. I am selling this just to start a fund for a new computer. If you are interested, feel free to email me. I have my email's tied to my phone and I will get back to you as fast as I can.

I am selling my Sony 80GB PS3 for 480$.... It is the fat version. I know it may seem like a lot of money for what it is but it's really not. With this deal you will get a fully functional PS3 2 controllers 1 Red 1 Blue, The Blue one will charge the light blinks on the controller but it will not turn on... The Red one works as new. You will be getting Call of Duty 3, Modern Warfare 1, Modern Warfare 2, Call of Duty World of War, Call Of Duty Black Ops the 80$ edition with metal case. MLB 09 The Show and MLB 11 The Show, Heavy Rain, NBA 07, Red Dead Redemption, WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2011, Tiger Woods 09, Grand Theft Auto IV and also Grand Theft Auto The Ballad Of Gay Tony, and The Lost and Damned, Fight Night Champion. It will also come with 2 extra long USB chargers for the controllers. I am the only owner of this system, I took good care of it the whole time I've owned it, never dropped, had something spilled on it, nothing it works as new very clean. I use a air can to clean the fans every week. This is a major steal for a very good and reliable system. The reason I'm selling it is because I just got my licensee and as I'm pretty sure most of you all know gas is expensive for a f350 that gets 12 MPG. If you are interested in this system contact me whenever with txt message at 804-366-6255, call after 7-10, but txt me whenever ill get back to you within that day. Also I am willing to negotiate a little bit but not by much.

PS. DO NOT EMAIL, I DO NOT CHECK IT, PHONE IS BEST WAY TO CONTACT ME. Thanks.

^ I've seen a lot of White Xbox 360's for sale as well. A lot of (WAY) overvauled PS2 games have been flooding STL Craigslist lately. A couple of examples:

This person must really like his Yugioh & Dark Cloud games!

http://stlouis.craigslist.org/vgm/2979092875.html
"I have these PS2 games our kids no longer play asking $15 for regular games and $20 for the sport games"

Can't say I've ever seen old sports games being priced higher than other games. . .
 
Since there are so many people who buy classic systems on craigslist and this is the most active thread of them, i am looking to buy some retro controllers. I want 2 6-button genesis controllers (or maybe settle with the 3 button ones), 2 snes controllers, 2 nes controllers and 2 Neo Geo home console arcade sticks. Reason being, im going to use them for emulators via bluetooth adapter. What do these things go for? Ive seen a few ads on CL for people selling controllers, want to know what to offer and what to look out for. Thanks.

WOAH!!! Official Street Fighter Anniversary Edition Arcade Stick - $100

Date: 2012-04-26, 4:02PM MDT
Reply to: [email protected] [Errors when replying to ads?]
DID I JUST SEE THAT?

Yes. Yes you did.

This is the Official Street Fighter Anniversary Edition Arcade Stick

Yes, this is a collector's item.

EXCELLENT condition! No scratches, smudges or smears!

Works for both Sony PlayStation 2 AND Xbox

Xbox Live compatible.

Are you a super nerd? Hell yeah you are. You need this.

And yes... the POSTER IS INCLUDED, and yes - the poster is in great condition. The box is also included and has some minor signs of wear.

I don't care if you're building a birdhouse, an inter-dimensional tuba or just an arcade - you need this controller.

Whether remembering being 16 and loving Street Fighter for the 1st time - or 10 years down the road, with living situation completely unchanged and parents equally puzzled about your now questionable future - this is a great way to remember why nobody in your phone book ends in "y" or "a"

I can hardly imagine life without this thing, and I can't at all imagine a better deal. ( in excellent condition, these things START at around $150)

So.... Get it now, or be miserable for the rest of your life knowing what you're missing.
It's your call

Appreciate the enthusiasm...shame this sells for maybe half that (More probably go unsold).
 
Doubt it, its the second time he posted it in the last week. I sent him a email the first time he posted it asking if he meant to put $85 instead on $8500, he never responded. And i thought the guy asking $100 for a boxed (horrible condition tho) genesis at the flea market was bad. Lol

Not seeing $450 there personally, a 360 a few older game and kinect. Maybe retail price. And I really don't understand how the original value is $750? *srhug*

I could be wrong and maybe there's a human being out there that thinks this is all a good value but it sure isn't me, personally I think Kinect is an overpriced p.o.s. with zero games I would want to play. I also don't understand why newer 360s with no harddrive or 4gb harddrives are twice as expensive as older ones with 20, 60 or 120gb hds?? It's all screwed up. Glad I got a white 360 with a 60gb harddrive for $70 at a pawnshop.

Guess that's why some are CAGs and some are Fa.........free with their money.

Going by the original prices of everything mentioned in the add, it would all come out to about $700. And a lot of people stupidly pay tons of money for HD cables, so the final tally could be even higher than that. But of course, the value of an object is not based on its price at release because as we all know, games quickly depreciate in value. I would say that $450 is much closer to what he actually spent on all of that stuff. What he should realistically expect to get for it all is about $250 at most.

And personally, I feel like I'm being generous. I bought my 360 with 20 GB and three games for $200 about four years ago; I would pay considerably less for all of that now. And aside from Blur and maybe Kinect Adventures, those are some pretty lame games he's throwing in.

I am willing to come to your home to beat Mega Man II for you at $10 a boss, $20 for Dr. Wily. You must have the game and an official Nintendo top-loader for me to do this. I can bring both my copy of Mega Man II and my NES, but this will cost you extra. I am willing to play the game on the "Difficult" setting if you so desire. I get to pick the order of the bosses. Two boss minimum for me to show up. Must have a CRT television that is at least 19 Inches to play on. NO EMULATORS. THIS IS NOT A JOKE. SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY.
