Title: I hate rich people on ebay (or Yauctions)
Post by: MissaFX on December 29, 2007, 10:30:20 AM
There's an adaptor on ebay which to me is worth about 30-35 dollars.  I was praying that I wouldn't have much bidding against me since I can't really go over 27...anyways, I just looked to see who was bidding against me and raising the price, it's some guy who plunks down 200 euros for open lego sets and other stupid amounts of money for things.  The sheer number of auctions this guy wins too must cost him thousands of euros per week :-&

Oh you rule, well if I get outbid, I will buy one from that site.  I did a lot of searching before I bid and could not find any active sites with this product for sale.  I see they have the 3do -- PSX converter too!

And yes, I am Yuna on ebay, told you guys I was a big Yuna fan.

I prefer to buy from whoever won't rip me off.  I do some ebay, some store buying.  That's why I have sooo few ebay feedbacks.  My account is from 1997 (well I had one earlier than that, but that is when you had to choose a name instead of using your email as your name on ebay.

Ebay is great for getting wow cards though.

I have a couple of the ps>pce controller adaptors. I bought them in the vain hope they would work as 6 button controllers; they do not.  #-o

In case that's what you were hoping for. There are advantages to PS controllers on the PCE.(longer cords, for starters)

I just want one so I can use a more modern replacement joypad.
