How disappointing, I thought the cart would be gold.

So, I was wondering the value of that currency in US dollars and found that it's pretty much the same at this point? Wow, and really, what douchebag bidders to bid it up so fast... It starts at a dollar, next bid is at $50, from then on it seems typical, but then from $110 it's bid up to $333... Then ~$200+ (give or take) increment bids thereafter... Pffft. Sure doesn't hurt to get help selling your item with publicity from some retro site with whatever traffic that it fetches and that's a day after it went on sale (he contacted them or?)...

You have to remember the common wealth does not really get anything special, when it comes to videogames asides, constant censoring. Whoever won it surely deserves it. I bet that thing will end up in a museum or a bon-fire one day.
