I actully went crazy just like that kid, when I opened a present on Christmas. It was Mario Kart for Super NES, we didn't own a Super NES, so to me this meant we were getting a Super Nintendo. I started shouting....
WERE GETTING A SUPER NINTENDO!!!!
thats when my brother says... "thats for the wrong system."
My father went "oh shit".
My heart was broken, instead of going out and buying us a Super Nintendo, like a real man. He took us to Meijer and let me and brother pick out two games for the original NES. We got WWF Steelcage Wrestling, and Simpsons: Bart vs. Radioactive Man. Till this day, I just can't get that excited for Christmas.

Wow, thats awful, especially since those are two of the worst NES games you can find. Meanwhile, that's f'n stupid to pay that much for the N64, who cares who it belonged to?!

N64 kid lives!
Talk about easy money. Don't blame him, blame the idiots who would pay more for the N64 because of it's cult status.

If you can craft a nifty story about an item you're selling on eBay, you can make loads more money than you could just selling something straight out. Just look at that guy who sold his wife's old wedding dress after she called off the wedding. He ended up making around $10,000 on that thing because of its cult status. Wanna sell something on eBay? Tell a damn good story.

Does this mean I'll eventually be able to buy a "Yiddish Cup" off of EBAY?

Tell a damn good story. That's reminds me. There's this guy who claimed he was selling... literally... NOTHING, and that you were bidding for nothing. I don't remember how far it went up, but there were bids.

Sold!
Not to you, but to the guy who turned up at our door and said he'd come all the way from Poland to ask if we had any design work going - I told him no, and he turned straight around and walked off, possibly to walk back to Poland. Or possibly to build a rocket to fly to the sun... at night.

I love stupid bids...
My friend sold his soul on eBay a year or two ago... Came complete with certification of ownership of his soul, and a picture of the previous owner of the soul... He made like 30 bucks...
