I used to go to this store called M&M Games. Stopped by recently, and they had moved from their spot in the strip mall... to all of 2 doors down in the same strip mall. Seems like at this point they re-priced every item in the store to semi-ridiculous. One item stood out though..
A lime green "Mountain Dew" Xbox, for $500. Better yet, it had a hand-written sign on it that read, "one of only 14 ever made." There were 5000 of these things. A simple Wikipedia search yields this info... It's one thing to overprice your wares (a loose MD Xbox can be had on ebay for $100 quite regularly) but it's another to provide misinformation to justify your insanity. Maybe he looked at the 'factory sealed' ebay BIN price, I dunno.
I wanted to take a picture but the guy was standing right there.
