    I was rather tempted to go for this when it was less money, but clearly I'm an idiot as apparently it's not woth anything clearly there is nothing even vaguely interesting in that massive auction and not only do I fail at university but I also fail at posting on forums.
    Next time I'll not bother
    sorry to waste everyones time

    Unimpressed?
    If nothing else it's impressively huge

    No idea how someone has a game collection that big, yet still full of complete shit. It's like they just bought games at random.

    He says it's surplus from his business.
    It's not that bad, totally worth more than £1500 assuming a good proportion of it works

    I'd say this bundle is pretty awful. For every good game you get 10 shitty ones, or even worse, old sports games that you'll basically have to throw away.

    the games aren't exactly amazing, I'll give you that but I was more looking at the consoles and acessories than the games
    It's clearly the stuff he had trouble selling but I dunno there's certainly potential in there
    I thought it was noteworthy more because of the shear size of the bundle than perhaps the content

    Depending of how far it goes it's a good deal or a terrible purchase: sure there's some nice stuff like an AES but there's barely any cases and many items look very used, kinda like rental games

    Some of those consoles are very nice looking , it's basically hit or miss though. :(

    Tons of loose and incomplete games that are worth next to nothing. Look at all those Mega Drive games without instructions and loose CD's - you can basically throw them away, nobody will want to pay enough money for them that makes it worthwhile to even go to the post office. And it's a considerable portion of the entire bundle... it really does look like surplus, the only aspect that makes it worth mentioning is that it's a LOT of surplus. The loose Neo Geo stands out like a centerpiece in this assortment of shovelware and it's scratched, dusty, without any accessories - so still junk.

    Hmmm, does look like a junk lot. Like ave said, so many loose it's not really worth jumping into.

    No no, hall of shame is there, but the discussions thread has been removed. Yet we are unsure why.

    Dang ebay is going under. No bids on this much stuff!? Broken it's still a parts goldmine. Some shifty reseller could've made hundreds.
