Sealed (?) Earthbound on Ebay (Currently $23.50)

[Draven]

I know this should probably go in the buy/sell Ebay forum, but I thought you guys might want to check it out. It's supposedly a sealed copy of Earthbound for SNES. They misspelled Nintendo on the heading and I happened to come across it. I thought these things weren't sealed when new, but I may be incorrect. He does have 100% positive feedback. Anyway, thought somebody here might be interested:

Syran-wrap? Haha.
I agree though, it looks DIY shrink wrap to me.

I'm almost positive Earthbound never came shrik wrapped.

It wasn't. Someone's going to end up with a pretty expensive bathroom tile.

Someone found a case of NIB copies of Earthbound last year, and were selling them at $500 a piece.

No, it was not a "case". Just a couple discovered copies forgotten in some store. They were very mint, and possibly new, but not shrinkwrapped.

This sealed copy is nothing but a bullshit. Not even funny because it's a rip-off.

The wrap looks home made but it looks really old, maybe few stores re-sealed the copies they had for sale ...

It will be interesting how much it reaches, i will bid a few hundred dollars :D

If you look at the picture of the back, you can tell that the box has been opened by the appearance of the flap on the left.

he answers a question at the bottom of the auction "i found the game cartridge in a seperate plastic container with the same sticker and number on it as the box, so I'm assuming the players guide is in the box!"

[Draven]

Up to 51 bucks now. Has anyone here bid on it yet?

Let's get everyone here with an ebay account to tell him it isn't real. I hate it when sellers take advantage of stupid people.

Question & Answer

Q: if i open it and it's not complete or i'm not satisfied, can i still get my money back?

A: Thanks for asking this question. Since there are bids I can not revise the auction. I found the game cartridge in a seperate plastic container with the same number tag on it. I will email the winner and ask if he still wants the game and box since it is used. The players guide may be in the box, but I don't know! And yes I will refund if you are not satisfied.
