Apparently other people have a lot more time and money than I do... My jealousy bone just twitched.

I don't see anyone paying more than $10,000 for a complete NES collection (including boxes, manuals, NWC cart). There is some fake bidding going on.

PHoNyMiKe · Post by **PHoNyMiKe** » Tue Jan 30, 2007 4:26 am

yo, my bid has a butterfly effect on the next bids. I bid $24,762.31, now the numbers are all weird, and end in .31 teeheehee. fuck faces

SquareHead · Post by **SquareHead** » Tue Jan 30, 2007 7:49 am

With 4 more days to go on that, thats just funny. It would be even funnier if the winner didnt pay.

Post by **badinsults** » Wed Jan 31, 2007 3:22 am

If you think the winner will pay, you are stupid. A complete NES collection is not worth a third of that. This is not a complete NES collection, it apparently is missing most of the rarest games. Plus most of the games are cart-only, diminishing its value. I would take the current bid with a grain of salt.

Vault Dweller · Post by **Vault Dweller** » Wed Jan 31, 2007 7:45 am

And I thought my $96 for SMT: Nocturne was retarded...

I can't understand why somebody would even pay over $20,000 for only 670 NES games. Maybe if it was a complete collection, but it isn't. Thats over $30 per game, I can understand that for some games, but definitely not all of them. Theres a local store around here that sells used NES games, and NONE of them are above $20.

I have too agree though, I highly doubt the current bid is serious on any level.

Looks like the guy cancelled your bid.

Man reading the bidding history on this is funny. Apparently the seller is contacting bidders to verify theyre for real. Like it will be any help. Im going to have to keep watching this stupidity.

PHoNyMiKe · Post by **PHoNyMiKe** » Wed Jan 31, 2007 10:42 am

he didn't contact me about bidding. and how did you know my bids were canceled before I even did?...

Because the current bid is $20200.

Even though your identity is hidden when you bid these days on eBay, you mentioned the amount you bid. That odd amount with the .31 So when you look at that first bid with the odd .31 on it it was canceled in the bidders' list.

Edit 7:
Ahhh now this is funny. It looks like theyre trying to invalidate the auction now. I just saw a 1,000,000.00 Bid

Gil_Hamilton · Post by **Gil_Hamilton** » Fri Feb 02, 2007 8:59 am

It's really sad... he stripped most of the manuals out for a separate auction.

Like badinsults pointed out, most of the games are naked, and the unlicensed ones aren't there.
And on top of it all... StackUp isn't even playable. The ROB parts that came with the game are missing, and ROB is far more integral to StackUp than he is to Gyromite.

StarTropics is similarly incomplete, as the manual(or rather, a "letter" glued to the back of it) was an actual part of the game. But that's just a trip to GameFAQs to fix.

Maybe if it included Tengen Tetris and that ultra rare gold cartridge from the Nintendo Power contest, just maybe.

PHoNyMiKe · Post by **PHoNyMiKe** » Fri Feb 02, 2007 7:37 pm

I paid $50 for tengen tetris years go. the 2 player co-op mode is cool.

Post by **badinsults** » Sat Feb 03, 2007 3:05 am

The rarity of Tengen Tetris is overrated. Stadium Events is probably the rarest officially liscenced cart, and this guy has the less rare Pal cart.

SquareHead · Post by **SquareHead** » Sun Feb 04, 2007 7:54 am

Looks like the auction was PWNED. From what I saw eBay pulled the listing.

Post by **badinsults** » Sun Feb 04, 2007 10:43 pm

No, he likely pulled the plug because there was too much fake bidding.
