So maybe all the scammers are being attracted to you because of some karmic thing?

If you are implying that i may have made his sell it cheaply - wrong

It was an ebay auction in march ( i did post here about it but i was flamed by liquid)

He had a zero feedback and he listed it as a Mvs set up

He lives 15 miles from me in Glasgow so i could go and pick it up - he never posted feedback for me though - did know who to use ebay properly

He told me it was his son that told him to put it on ebay - he was about to sell it in a car boot sale for £50 the lot

He also sold a collecovision and a vectrex but i believe he never posted them because the bidders wanted escrow etc and he didnt want to use that

and let me say i have only ever been ripped of twice, once by Chriz-77 and the other by dreamh20 and they have been deals within Neo.com

Ever single ebay auction i have taken part in has resulted in a perfect transaction

If you are on about something else - i apologise

Just yanking your chain, not trying to imply that you played down the value to get it cheaply or anything.

True, you have only been ripped off twice, but there have been what I would call attempted rip-offs. The guy with AOF4, for instance, that would not take pics of his Metal Slug for "moral reasons."

yeah fair cop

That guy even contacted Tarma as well

He has just sold that slug 1 on ebay:

<a href="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1381069174&rd=1" target="_blank">Linky</a>

Am keeping an eye out on it just to see how the feedback goes - he set up this new ebay account ot sell the item - definately smells fishy

All that stuff is in the selling forum - thread started by Joerg (collector)

I think i managed to smell a rat with that guy - maybe if he had Windjammers 2 i would have went through with the sale

personally Mario has had it a little tougher than me recently and if one of us deserves a refund from Tim - its goot be him since he sent more money to Tim

If it is the one I am thinking of, he was never able to provide proof, or he changed his story at the last second and it was not a Neo-Geo, or something like that. Or is this a different incident?

ou are more than likely thinking of me on this, cause I am the one who made the post. It has not yet arrived in the mail, but as soon as it does, I will post pictures of it. The entire item that I bought was the following:

1 Boxed Jap NeoGeo Gold System
Metal Slug 1 (complete/mint)(jap)
Samurai Spirits 3 (complete/mint)
and Sapphire for the PC Engine/Turbo Duo (complete/mint).

From the last bit of tracking information I have received on the item, it is roughly 30-50 miles away fom me now, so I am hoping to have it either Friday (tomarrow!! would be nice... been waiting almost 3 weeks for it now) or Saturday. And like I said... once it is in my hands, I will take pictures of it, and have it posted here.

Actually, it is not you. It was someone several months ago, before you joined. I think one of the Sonic Twins knew him, I cannot recall.

Cool deal if it turns out.

I've been noticing that Neo games aren't fetching the high prices that they used to. Titles like MOTW, SS4, VG, and many more aren't getting shit for bids on ebay. A few months ago, people were spending their kid's college funds just to get those games. Now MOTW won't sell for over 400.

All these collectors and sellers are getting royally fucked and it fills my heart with boundless joy to see it happen! You stupid fucks, all the countless hours and dollars you've spent building your collections or inventories have all been for naught! The Neo Geo market is finally starting to cool down and you people are stuck with the overpriced leftovers that no one wants. Ha, Ha, Ha! <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[LOL]" /> </strong><hr></blockquote>

I think it's more or less the people who really wanted the titles like MOTW and so forth have mostly gotten them. So the prices won't be driven up as much anymore.

I really wouldn't laugh at the collectors and what not. Big deal they paid more. If it makes them happy, then so be it.

You sir are a cock

Big deal - i am a collector but my Garou was 410usd shipped to the UK - btw thanks Yagamikun

Was i seen off - no

Probably find most collectors got their games when they were released and some of there carts are worth alot more than they paid for them

Fecking strange comment imo
