CrypticQuery Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 Ok, for safety, one of us will make a AVGN thread so we can talk about the nerd, his episodes and post some of his videos there.Lets get back on topic before Juilus cuffs me.That'll be fun (the thread, not the cuffing ) Also, Sissi, Asper, or User would probably be more likely to cuff you, as Julius has jurisdiction over the RP board :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fureox Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Well lets resuscitate this threadThe seller of the NES is desperate for money, but he should probablyobtain it through more reasonable prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrypticQuery Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 Yeah....The most that bundle could even DREAM to go for fairly is around $200, if he's lucky. I feel bad for him, I believe he actually thinks he's going to get 35,000 dollars for an ancient piece of hardware (No offense NES!, your awesome! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fureox Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 I'd say $200 is definitely a realistic price. Maybe more, seeing thathe has a considerable amount of games and accessories in the bundle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fureox Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Yeah, in the proper auction setting with a good starting point, that thing will go fast! Although I do not think he's in good condition for an auction, it looks like his money situation is pretty tight right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrypticQuery Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 Although I do not think he's in good condition for an auction, it looks like his money situation is pretty tight right now.Yeah, although if he really needs that $35,000, he better find some more stuff to sell, because there is no way anyone is going to buy that thing, except the odd prankster that ends up not paying.

CrypticQuery Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 Yeah I wonder what went though that "almost-buyer's" head Probably someone using a fake account to screw up someone's day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fureox Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Probably someone using a fake account to screw up someone's day.Yeah most likely. Must've threw the seller for a ride when he saw it was bought though Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrypticQuery Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 Yeah most likely. Must've threw the seller for a ride when he saw it was bought though LolIf the story is true, I feel pretty bad for the seller, having his hopes get up, and then smashed apart.

Fluxy Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 I just took a look at that guys situation. That does bite, and I feel really bad for him, but at one point he must realize that it won't sell for that much. Only some crazed billionaire would buy that, if even!

CrypticQuery Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 (Offtopic for a second: Haha, I've been just randomly staring at your avatar Fureox, it's calming somehow )Yeah, he really needs to see things from a potential buyer's point of view. At that price, he's dipping into a tiny buyer circle. In that condition, it's brought down even smaller, to just the random rich person that feels the need to help someone out. The seller has to realize that it's not going to happen like that. I feel bad for him though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fureox Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 (hehe you're right it's mesmerisingly calming )I still wonder how true is story is too. You never know if it's trueor if it's just some guy asking for publicity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluxy Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 You know, I never thought of that. I know it is bad to say, but he could be doing it just to make some news headline or something. At that price, I just don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrypticQuery Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 (MUST...STOP LOOKING AT IT!!! GAAAH!! )Yeah, I'd feel even worse for the buyer if this was a hoax! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fureox Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 If there ever is a buyer. At those prices i doubt it :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrypticQuery Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 If there ever is a buyer. At those prices i doubt it (GAAAH!

Fluxy Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Well, what i meant was like get his name in media. But yeah, if it was a hoax, I would feel bad for the one who felt sorry for him and bought it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the 1980s movie "The Wizard", whatever that kid's name was, he got 50,000 points on the NES version of Double Dragon. Haha, I'm surprised I remember that.
