Im glad im not the only one that found his max bid nonsense an elitist asshole move.

U know he's not gonna be paying that much for stuff, he's just trying to scare people into not bidding and it's fuck'n retarded.

Honestly if you dont' want people to know'n about it, don't put it on the forum. Simple

If you do want to help out other people look'n for shit put it on the forum. *like i did with those kubricks/ghost babel.*

To sit here and say im going to buy this for a ridiculous ass load of money don't dare bid cuz i'll beat you, is fuck'n stupid.

Stay away from the sealed MGS!!!! look at the picture carefully, there's a big crack on the front of the case. I don't want anyone buying it thinking they got a steal then noticing it later. I did that on a game once. I thought I got such a steal until I got it in the mail. At first I thought it might've gotten cracked in the mail then I double checked the picture more carefully :evil:

I think maybe due to language barriers I probably over-reacted.

But honestly, every time an item is posted I don't want to hear "i buy $xxx" from people. Maybe I should care though because if I know peoples max bids I may end up having an edge when it comes to bidding.

He can say whatever he want, but I can't say if I think he's a bullshitter? You really contradicted yourself LOL :mrgreen: because you basically say "stop whining" (basically stop SAYING something) then you say "he can say whatever he want". So who's allowed to say what? Stop whining about people whining about what illusion does. I'm sorry gixo I'm just bustin' your balls. :lol: When he posts a ridiculous supposed high bid for something I take it as him trying to "scare off" potential bidders so he can get the item cheaper. I obviously don't know this for a fact, it's just my opinion and I definately stick to it.
illusion wrote:violent, I would like to invite friendly system that does not overpay a lot.
Maybe, in turn, invited himself, what would you offer?
There's no possible way we can come up with a system here where we designate peacefully who gets to bid on what so it sells for the cheapest price. If anyone here can come up with a system I'd love to hear it. I don't care in the slightest who has the high bid on something or who wants something desperately if I want it too and it's at a good price. I may sound like an ass, but at least everyone knows where I stand. I'm not going to ask someone not to bid on something and I'm not going to publicly show my interest for ANY reason.

Honestly, how would we decide who gets to bid on an item? And what would the consequences be if someone broke the agreement? That's one group I definately would NOT be associated with at all.

Ok that's a little harsh but I'm definately on the same train of thought as you.

As long as we split the profit between us equally, that sounds fine to me.

Get out of here you vultures heh.

I don't even buy anything anymore. I mean, I got my eye on things all the time, but I gotta take a break until the old house sells. Once that happens I plan to also do a contest or two for some free items.

No need for contests around here mate, TSi and I have got your back. As an unwritten rule now, anything surplus to your requirements is ours.

"Vultures", I've never heard anything so ludicrous.

EDIT: Ok I'll stop, I'm annoying myself now, I need to go to bed! :wink: Laters fellas!

I think they should've opened it to get the system itself signed. I've seen Kojima signed ones as well on the box and I wonder why they didn't open it up.

I mean, you could have a signed PS3 OR a signed box and a PS3 with it. I guess either way it doesn't matter, and as long as it's sealed still that helps. I'd kill to get a PS3 system with a Shinkawa sketch directly on it. A sketch of Rex preferably.

your best bet: bring your cheque-book to Japan. go to the Konami office, write cheques to everyone u see so you can get urself into finding Shinkawa's office... then close and lock the door, slap him silly with ur money and get him to sketch your back =P

LOL no kidding. shin092922 had one hell of a collection man. So many complete promo packages, so many sealed games, so many items I didn't even know existed. I'm still wondering what he might have to still list. I'm almost gonna start setting money aside just in case he lists something crazy that I can't pass up on. Watch him have the Rex statue that's in Kojima's office.

next person to put their bid amount in their post im gonna find out where you live. No one cares if u dumb enough to put 3x times the amount of money in your post than what u will actually buy it for. Out of respect for the community guys we need to act more mature. Like violent i keep all my bids secret until the item closes. I thought this topic was to help people out not hurt them(illusions). I love your collection but please just keep your bids to yourself because posting high bids just makes me think your too cocky about yourself. After the item closes then u can tell us what you paid.

Amazing price. Can't believe there's no bids on this. I'm even considering it myself, but I don't have the money to buy shit right now, especially for something I already own.

dammit

heh

http://page16.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/u29143572

At 14,000Y no bids. These close mid-high $300 range on ebay. Probably closer to $400 than $350, and good luck getting these under $400 next year.

Need more info on this item? http://liquidocelot.com/items/tigerstripe.html - a 7.5 on my rarity scale ain't too shabby! :wink:
