    Put it this way, if some one came up to me and said, "Do you want to buy this Navi Saturn for 10'000 yen?" I'm not going to say, "No, you can make yourself more than than." I say it's the sellers responsibilty to find out how much it's worth.

    Now, if I was asked "How much is this Navi Saturn worth?" Then I would give an honest answer because I'd be ripping someone off if I'd said a cheap price. That's something I don't do.

    Someone offering to sell you something cheap and you accepting it is not wrong in my eyes.

    Here it's the other way. I've seen people going to some shop counter with a Mega Drive and a couple of games for selling it and getting back with it because they couldn't sell it for the 500€ they wanted for getting a PS3. Since there are rare and expensive games nowdays people thinks in Spain that every damn old system will pay you a small car.

    I think there is a difference between soming saying "will you give me $xxx for this system" to "What's will you give me for this system" to "What is this system worth?". One shows that the person wants x amount for it, one is what you would pay now for the system and the later is someone asking you for an opinion of what they have is worth, all three are very different.

    I think the problem here is that the buyer snapped on it far too quickly after it comes in, however if he keeps it then so good, although if he tries to sell it on the forums or ebay then I think we can call him a ripper off of little children. ;)

    Although I hate when people ask me what xxx is worth as normally saying "Feck all" normally offends... I remember when people came into a shop I worked in with a Spectrum and lots of common or garden games, with one or two games worth something, then saying "Whats this worth?" about £50, taking out the two or three decent games then saying "Will you give me £50 for this?" No we'll give you £20 for the Spectrum and those games as most of them are common rubbish.

    You think that Micjohvan might not have done the right thing, but do you really need to speak like that?

    It isn't right. :(
