This is why I don't eBay much folks...
Me:
Hey, just noticed the Saturn Skeleton system auction was taken down, I was planning on bidding. Any reason it was taken down? (there were already bids on it)
Seller:
al-hamdulillah
Hi,
I removed it from auction for the time being and will list at fixed price for around $1000. As I said in the listing this is one of the rarest Saturns ever released, if not the rarest, and moreso factory sealed.
Rather than open it up on auctionfor the dozens of bargain basement watchers who were waiting to bid for it on the last day for some ridiculous price, it's better off being listed for a price reflecting that as a buy it now option until someone takes it.

Me: Well good luck with the sale. I was just surprised as I thought I saw twenty or so bids on it when I found it yesterday so didn't know the auction could be taken down at that point.
Generally from my experience you end up making more with auctions as many will bid at the last seconds and the price can go up much higher than a BIN. Everyone's a bargain hunter though and that's just the chance you take with an auction and that's what makes eBay fun.
Personally I was going to bid around 500 but I'm sure someone else would have bid more. I just want a gem mint version of this system with a perfect laser; I would have opened it and used it as well as displayed personally. I'm pretty OCD about the condition of my stuff!
Cheers.

There you ae - you yourself are a cheap ass who wanted a system that's never seen on eBay for the amount a used, beat-up Samsung Satuen commands.
It's people like you I'm byppassing entirely by going the BIN route. You can have your 'fun', I'm after maling a sale at a fair price.
And then there's your typical ignoramus use of 'OCD' as a descriptor for your perfectionist attitude towards the condition of your toys. Listen, OCD is a genuine mental disorder and a crippline one defined by rituals and invasive thoughts that severely circumscribe a person's daily life.
I absolutely despise people like you with your chapassery, lack of appreciation of or what you;re buying. and most of all: your disgusting, make-me-retch white privilege of wanting something for nothing (this goes back to your rapist/pedophile/genocidal white forefathers on their colonial adventures) - and most ofall, your pathetic ignorance of basic human psychology and reduction of it to pathetic pop psychology riddled with more BS than your belovd Trump.
I've banned you and your ugly white privilege from my listings and from contacting me again.
Go and shoot up another mosque and some more innocent Muslims, you'll feel better, and no one will you terrorist - they'll just call you...OCD.
Me:
You are an ignorant racist moron. I told you good luck with the sale and wasn't rude at all in my email. An auction determines market value, not BIN's. You got bids on your item and couldn't deal with the price they were at so you went back on a fair sale and deleted the auction like a chump. You obviously aren't a person who follows through with your word. You also know nothing about me so don't pretend to. Lastly, I appreciate all things gaming as well as people; something you obviously don't. I'll be posting your message on various gaming forums around the internet such as Neo-Geo.com etc. to make sure nobody buys your stuff. I'll also be contacting eBay to let them know about your abuse; hopefully they will give you a mark on your account. Get a life.
