    Not everything is worth a billion dollars. Some stuff is "crumbs", not everything is great. It's either ebay it or throw it out.

    It's acclaim in house. Does it make it a billion dollar item? No not really... And I have about twelve of those damn things in my basement. They all had xbox drives in the top, but I used them all to fix some dead units. It's an experiment really, if it sells for less than $10, they all go into the compactor.

    I've heard acclaim liked to do... grey goods for dev.
    They had an excellent engineer, some of the things I found
    are very impressive.

    I remember some modded cd64 units... bung devices.. and units with chips.

    Matter of fact, the problem is what to do with racks of items that aren't legal to sell on ebay...

    Well, if acclaim happens to have some cool items for sale that wont/cant sell on ebay for relatively cheap compared to thousands of dollars, there are people who are willing to take a drive lol.

    What's so funny is that the person has 0 feedback and the bidding is already near $200 :-/

    Your so stupid man... I'm sorry, but you are, you dont sit there and make 100 promotion item listings, you download a program called eBay turbo lister, created for people like you...
    Turbo lister
    You just wated so much time/money.. you could have just asked...


    And to the sukoiden 2 (w/e) the dude tried to sell it for $95.00 and it didn't get 1 bid if i remeber right, now a new seller comes in and its already selling for $200+ for some unknow reasons

    Sorry but I gotta stick up for atari here, This is just too much now.


    You have been getting on peoples nerves here ever since you joined and its getting downright rediculous. You bash people on every other post now. Are you trying to get banned? Why are you here? To make fun of collectors? I just dont get it. You would think the fact that Yakumo has been running circles editing your posts would give you a hint.

    Atari,
    Isnt listing those items at 999$ raising the price of the listing fee a lot though?

    sobman, I haven't been here long and I don't wish to start no flame wars or anything like that, so please don't think I'm "having a go", merely expressing my point of view.

    It's great that you've told people (that may not know) about eBay's Turbo lister, and even better that you posted the link for it, but the fact remains that there are nicer ways of telling people about these things.

    In return you could be providing a pleasant atmosphere for the forums, the people who you are informing will probably be grateful and thank you, and you'll make more friends and generally enjoy yourself more. But then again this is just my opinion.

    eBay had 10 cent listing yesturday and I'm guessing he saved money by making all these that day?

    Nice stuff btw. Got a few things on my watch list.
