Sheesh, what a douche.


What an a$$hole!


What seller? Out the f*cker!


Lol, it was for a copy of Growlanser Generations, I'm a big Working Designs fan so I've been trying to suss out some oddities with that release.  The auction was here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Growlanser-Generations-Deluxe-Edition-RARE-COMPLETE-/231871075940

Here's the kicker, I went back to look at the message today and the guy has changed his name!

Originally it was drzeroji, now it is lordtenchi98.

How is that even allowed? I can't think of a legitimate reason for doing that.

All of the recommendations at the bottom of that listing are for the same version of the game, except they're all cheaper. :P

OMG THE ABSOLUTE WORST.

PS Nully, tell galam he's retarded for trying to get rid of it. Unless its a joke. Blah.



Hahah... Galam actually snagged a 2nd dynastic hero recently for obnoxiously low BIN.  The one on the bay is the original one he snagged for $150 years ago. Apparently the new one was in better shape... Lucky sob


Did he at least offer it to you first? lol

Fixed.

I remember it pretty well. It was around the time I joined the forums. I was kinda pissed that I missed it. Was like the one night I didn't check the auctions ending soonest on the evil place. lol

Then it must have been shortly after the one that sold on eBay for $150.

Perhaps? Almost confused. There was another super low selling Dynastic? Hmm.

A quick search for it the other day turned up many threads talking about the $50 Dynastic Hero eBay listing I'm talking about, but I didn't have time to narrow down the exact post with the initial link. At least three copies sold realitively "cheap" (only <$150!) within one year.

Dark Kobold made a big deal about how occasional low end one-offs can't be factored into a buyer's perception, but the occasional fake sales going for ten times the perceived average tells non-fipper buyers the true value of games.

I believe that at the time, eBay flippers were already asking $400 - $800 for DH.

Yeah, because, like galam just did, it gets bought and flipped immediately for profit. Also, way to exaggerate and make false claims, i.e. "10x" & "fake sales." Also, I'm still waiting to see what happens to those 20 or so duplicate games you bought from syphic 6 months ago. Aside from the Beyond Shadowgate, they all seemed to disappear, despite you claiming you were going to offer raffles and forum deals...

Interesting...
Hey, you.
