Saw this auction in e-bay...
I haven't seen this in any of the threads ( or may have missed it). But
THIS surely will rock you!
http://cgi.ebay.com/Playstation-3-PS3-M ... 286.c0.m14
If I can afford this, I really don't care if it's a modified PS3 (damn kick ass good one if I may add!). But if it was signed by Kojima, it does make it a LEGIT rare collectible!
My bet, this will reach a $1000 + sell...

i think its cool, a nice one off modification with proceeds of 15% going to childs play. that's cool, with the pricetag on it now, hopefully it's already paid for the cost to make it, plus the 15% to childs play.

LOL
$1625? Fuck that. I don't have that kind of scratch right now.
....
.......
Even if I did, I wouldn't drop over $1000 on anything MG. Unless it was the Rex or Ray. To whoever gets it though, I will be jealous.

Wow man, you disappoint me!
How can you pass on this SIGNED item???
Don't sweat it bro...
For me you're still "THE" authority on all MGS related sealed and signed items!

OR maybe I'm throwing you guys a curveball and I'll snipe it last second....
Heh, no I definately won't. It's funny though, I keep an amazing record of Kojima signatures that catalog his tendencies/styles at the time, his placement on certain items (depending on the item and time of event), pens used at various signings, etc. I have an amazing list of things to look for to confirm a signatures legitimacy. There's alot of things to look for, and I know what to look for depending on the signing event/meeting.
However, I can't share the information with people. It's basically almost a "how to" on forging a signature. I know many tipoffs of a legit/fake. Best I can say is if someone wants my opinion on a signed item I can give them a solid yes/no (IMHO) but I can't really explain why.

Ugh...now I'm thinking of how to get the funds together to get this...heh....
Mostly just kidding, but I check out the item page like every 5 mins just to see it. I at least hope niyachan wins it.

I happen to agree whitetrashshayno, it has too much going on. We have a word for that in Spanish "naco", but we can respectfully call it baroque.

I agree about the controller. It's awful, but the system is just amazing. I like the inside of the case as well (not so much the outside though).

ok as much as I said I liked this
$4050 is fucking retarded. Some people have way too much money. For that price it's a piece of garbage.
For $1500 it's completely off the hook.

Maybe if no one buys it then it will go down in price.
