Good one. This thread is over 1200 pages I'm sure we don't need to worry about keeping this thread clean.

c'mon guys.... doesn't anyone buy this stuff to keep and use and play? Does everything have a to have a value associated with it? All I'm hearing is that I only buy stuff from Goodwill if it has re-sell value.....

I say if you aren't using it, let someone who needs it pick it up. And not just because you can buy it for a buck at Goodwill and re-sell it on Ebay for $10. Let someone else have a chance. This whole thing just disgusts me. No one is even in it for the games anymore. Just to try and take advantage of someone else who doesn't know what they have so they can make a quick buck.

Mechblue, I'm still pissed at you for buying both of those master systems (just to make a "quick buck") when I needed one to actually use. You could have just as easily left one for me to buy.

I guess I realize that it is competitive at times, but it seems like I'm competing with wannabe Ebay pirates, rather than like minded game players. I hate this.


**** sorry everyone, rant over. :oops:
Lmao. umad?

I buy everything gamewise at places like goodwill and etc, screw if anybody else needs it. I couldn't careless if somebody else needs a nintendo game. Itll make my collection bigger

A lot of the games I buy at thrift stores are too old or obscure for local buyers to pick up. Think of it as me increasing the circulation by one when I put that stuff up on Ebay.

Ha, you're funny. You assume all I do is buy to sell? I've sold two things on eBay in the last 2-3 years. Most of what I get I trade to users on this board or other gamers in the area. All to get items for my collection and put games in the hands of those that are searching for them.

I hit up a fraction of the stores I used to (maybe 3-4 a week) mainly because the "hunt" has lost its interest (and.. it costs a lot in gas). I leave lots of stuff behind that I used to buy and I've never sold a single master system I've ever bought (or even knew telepathically you were looking at buying the same stuff), I COLLECT MASTER SYSTEM STUFF! :lol: You're image of me is very distorted and a bit offensive. So I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't call me out on things I'm not doing.

Anyways, that's that. Now back to your local programming.

Oh and to be on topic: Bought two copies of Grant Turismo 2 for that black dual disc thing they got in the center. Anyone need some free manuals or insets? :)

I only mention it dude, because that is what you told me to my face, when I asked if you were going to buy both the master system and the powerbase. You said, and I quote, "Yeah, I'll buy them both even though I already have a master system. I can resell it for more money." I asked you if I could please buy the master system, and you said, "Nah, I don't think so."

So, good lookin' out for a fellow gamer my man.

That is why I have this perception of you. Do you remember who I am now?

Actually, I'm sorry for that last post. It has no business here and I shouldn't bring it up. I apologize to the board and to Mechblue. I'll leave the petty stuff out of this and focus on the games. Sorry everyone.

Did you guys have this interaction in real life???

If that happened in real life, then... wow Mechblue, you're a real d#$k. That's deserving of negative feedback, even though it probably does not technically apply here.

We're talking in real life and it didn't happen as it has been said. Items were bundled together with plastic and couldn't be separated. It was also the first master system i'd ever seen in two years of searching.

I've sent him a private message to discuss this further.
