    Look up toilet paper, and do highest first. I saw like 10+ auctions for rols over 10k. And I could tell it was a joke, I just wanted to show it to someone.

    Understood. By the way, did you happen to notice that it says 1 sold?

    Nice catch, didn't notice that :lol:
    He probably just used one of them up though, seeing how he's selling whatever's left over at the time of the sale. You won't actually get the used parts.

    Btw, while we're down at this level: It's not eBay, but do a search for merda d'artista anyways...

    So about 5 years ago I bought "NiGHTS" off ebay. The version that came with the "3D" controller, New in box. If i remember right i got it for about $15 back then. When it arrived I was surprised to find that they not only shipped the controller box set but a NIB "Fat case" version as well. I contacted the seller and they didn't understand what i was talking about and had already left me good feedback. But you know, for every eBay story like this I have 10 bad ones.

    I bought an N64 2 years ago, with 30 games. When I got it there were 33 games in the box. One of them was Conker's BFD. I love that seller. But yeah, also 10 bad experiences to one good.

    a game i was selling on feebay was won by an ausie even though it said in clear bold letters "Will not ship out of USA". i even went though all the steps to make it where people outside the USA could not bid on it. but he did anyway. and now expects me to ship it across the world for $4. i tried explaining everything to him but he wont back down. :(

    I was going to call this guy a Moron but i feel as if I am the Moron for even selling on eBay.

    i dont think im going to sell anymore.. just horde.

    Tsss, why do I never have such luck like above, it seems everything I buy off ebay, doesn't arrive, is fake, is not as described, breaks down within a week and so on..
    I am also on the point of giving up on it, allthough lately I have been selling/buying things on our local marktplaats (ebay to be) but that seems to be even worse then ebay :p

    The asking prices for BIN on marktplaats are even more ridiculous than those on ePay.

    Somehow Dutch people have a feeling that everything keeps it value.

    You can offer to pay 50 bucks for something worth 40 at this point in time, but they will almost always reply with something like: hey I paid 800 euros for this back in 2003, so I want at least 400 for it :crying:

    But when you put something on sale yourself, somehow they come with stupid unrealistic low offers.
