I cant believe this retail kit is over 100 dollars O_O
And at this point it looks like a fellow dper is the high bidder ;) (oobgarm)

I just got one of those for free from a pal who works at a Gamestop. Of course I only got one of the 5 shirts and 2 of the 5(I think) Lanyards.
My friend also took like 2 of the sticker packs. But I got what I wanted .....
The box is the coolest !

Good luck to oobgarm on this auction. ;)

Ah man...That is fantastic!
Why didn't we get those at EB...

[Jibbajaba]

I dont think a hundred dollars is so bad. thats 5 tshirts. what does a tshirt go for in a retail store now? almost 20 bucks. plus all the other crap thats in there.

[Achika]

Ah, but the only thing he's missing is the letter and the Nintendo Binder insert....which I was given to me by my manager ;) :P

[Oobgarm]

My previous manager (Brisco) showed me the one he got and I immediately began lusting for one. It's my childhood in box/retail kit form. I must have it. :D

Achika: It's OK, I'll just push the button to blow up the city and then they'll be mine for the taking... :evil: ;)

[-hellvin-]

that's pretty damn cool
I would love to have one if the shirts were all black...green....orange? I would just never wear it.

Oh yeah , I forgot those 2 silly items were in my kit as well ;)

[tholly]

WOW, i want this sooooo bad, but i dont have $100+ to spend on some shirts that i will never wear and a bunch of other stuff that i will prolly never touch

[Brisco]

I love mine and will be rooting for you to get yours too. Just don't pay too much.

[captain nintendo]

Its at 140 dollars with 8 hours left X_x

Holy crap. There had to be alot of these made right ?????

[Oobgarm]

Yeah. I'm at my limit on that. No more bids from me. I was already overstepping my limit.

High bidder seems a bit suspect, particularly the bidding pattern. *shrug*

[SegaAges]

This is why I am annoyed at being a collector with almost nothing in my bank account :)

[WickedRogue]

I am the one who won it...and I am paying for it.

[charitycasegreg]

Why pay that much? You should have just went around to the gamestores asking to purchase theirs.

[nesgamer]

Wait so your saying that some stores still have them?

Depends. Probably by now, most boxes have been split up.

I got mine for free. But stuff was taken. You dont think the employees didnt want some of the lanyards?

As far as I know , this kit was meant as a tool for the employees to sell the classic series. The letter in the box is made out to "the video game department manager"


I saw on the auction it says they were limited to 500 LOL
That is the biggest crock of shit ever :roll: Who knows how many were truley made ? I do know this however ..... I am sure some were pilfered and it would be hard to find one complete.

[WickedRogue]

Well hopefully I will have everything...

lol @ "emo" in the item's title.
