I haven't been astonished by someone's auctions for years, but today, I must say, Oh My God !

Wait a second!

If these Nintendo carts are "individually numbered" then something funny is going on.... That guy's auction has the same # as the one on the chuckwagon site.

vs

http://www.chasethechuckwagon.com/item.cgi?show_item=0000003765

Both are #196

Edit: Hmmm... looks like they have the same "location"... I guess the guy is hedging his bets on which site to sell it on. ;)

[Massimiliano]

yeah, and they've got the same nickname ^^

EDIT:

Nevermind, I think I am incorrect.

Still unsure...I feel woozy.

I doubt it. This guy is a long-time collector, who has always gone for rare and top-end items. He has no need to scam and burn as (a) clearly money is not a problem for him and (b) I'm pretty certain he does actually own all the items on sale. I've seen him win some of them.

I mean, you could be right ... but unless you have any better evidence than 'he's selling a lot of expensive and rare items' then you're on shaky ground.

I am the seller and all is legit ofcourse :) I just listed the NWC also on chasethechuckwagon to give them some free traffic;) And I will put some protos there soon because Ebay will cancel them most prrobably!
I own 5 and almost 6 gamestores here and I want to focus on it, and lately the collecting part was already slowing down.
I will keep the CV collection and the games I like to play, I am not in a hurry I just put some interesting items in my store and try to make some good side deals outsiteEbay, already sold quite some items.
