This looks like a proto xbox 360 hdd but it could be simply painted

 

Its just a painted retail 360 hdd,nothing special.

 

It doesn't even look painted to me, just washed out from the flash.

 

Placed tentative bid ;-)

Hang on though, surely this was the 'STAR' auction?

An assortment of N64 memory cards/rumble packs from (presumeably) Acclaim - I don't know anything about N64 dev - could they contain any proto game work?

Nice price on those drives - what would shipping to the UK be like?

Just realised you posted about your N64 stuff :lol:

 

Think they are useless without the games or?

 

Ive been complaining for so long not to have a gamepak anymore so i may go up to the end of this .
But considering the gamepacks being so old, there's a high chance the data is lost because of battery runned out.

 

And my next item up for bids: (NEW) FPS Master Gun Controller + 3 other Xbox games!

Starting bid is $0.99 or Buy it for $24.99! Awesome deal!

The three XBox games are RalliSport Challenge, Mech Assault 2: Lone Wolf, and Project Gotham Racing 2.

 

You know that new feedback system was implemented, right guys? So basically now sellers cannot leave negative feedback...

 

Seems totally stupid to me, but hey eBay is slumping down towards the 'arse' stakes anyway. Roll on someone taking them on!

 

Can`t see that happening though :banghead:

 

It always happens in the end.

 

I'm all for it. Under the old system you were pretty much guaranteed to get a negative if you left one, regardless of the merits of the case; many sellers advertised this openly in their listings. And since most sellers have way more feedbacks than most buyers, a negative for the seller might take him down from 99.99% to 99.98% positive, whereas a negative for the buyer might take him from 100% to 80%, which looks terrible. Conclusion: no sane buyer would ever leave a negative even in the most obviously, indisputably bad situations, so the feedback system was becoming meaningless.

Incidentally, they've fixed the percentage issues under the new system too. Now it only shows data and calculates percentages from the past year, and there's no way for viewers to know you had negatives before that unless they manually go through all the pages of your feedback history. So no one can really put a black mark on you permanently.
