Re: Genesis games Craig's listing (help me figure this out)
That's a big peeve of mine. People putting no details in their listing. I just move along to the next listing.Bikeage wrote:I just don't understand the mentality of people who post a listing for games for sale on Craigslist and then don't list them. Seriously, how difficult is it? If they take the time and effort to place the ad then why is it so beyond their ability to simply type out the names of the games being sold?!?!

Re: Genesis games Craig's listing (help me figure this out)
I agree, its a giant pain in the ass. However, sometimes I do ask for a list or a bigger picture because I've gotten fantastic deals on stuff where the person was lazy or didn't spend the time to describe things all the way.gtmtnbiker wrote:That's a big peeve of mine.

That's true, I once scored a boxed japanese MD game, and a Boxed Action Replay 2 for a few bucks. Just because the picture was so terribly bad and small, you couldnt possibly make out what it really was. And the description didnt say much at all, except mega drive games.Hobie-wan wrote:I agree, its a giant pain in the ass.

So, sometimes bad pictures and descriptions can be a blessing if you can identify stuff yourself.

I'm being sarcastic about how on Craigslist everyone always says "I have a Nintendo/Sega/whatever with 10 games", but they never tell the titles. Sorry.aka DaBigKahuna wrote:I hope this is an attempt at sarcasm. If not, let me be the first to say your acting like an A$$.
Anayo wrote:It's 22 Sega games. They're just games. Is it THAT important to specifically know the titles? Like, of all of them? Geez, you're lucky he even included the total number. He coulda just said "some games" or "a plurality of games". You expect him to READ the titles on the carts and LIST them just for your convenience? You whiner.

Like my NES I got with all the hookups a controller and an advantage for 29 bucks shipped on ebay due to a crappy description and a stock photo. And the NES worked too!MentalMan wrote: That's true, I once scored a boxed japanese MD game, and a Boxed Action Replay 2 for a few bucks.
