Hehe.. not sure he got this money. Check the bidding history. One guy with -1 and 1 who arent registered anymore.

The -1 bidder and the NARU bidder were bumped off pretty early though. So he might get his money. That still is way too much money, even with the favorible U.S. or EUR to AU doller conversion. :roll:

That's ALOT of money for 28 games.

It has RUSHING BEAT for the Super Famicom, therefore, this lot was bought for CHEAP. LOL

Yeah, somebody needs their head examined.

Edit: Yep, buncha n00bs. Maybe they thought the regular SNES Final Fight games were UBER rare..?

That auction ended a few months ago. The bidder received positive feedback from the seller but curiously it thanked the "buyer" for quick delivery instead of payment.

I bet nothing happened in this auction and they swapped feedback just for fun.

These guys have done business before, but have not left each other any feedback for this transaction. My suspicion would be that both accouns are owned by the same person. He used the low feedback account to shill bid, and then, when he realised that the high bid was outrageously high and he would likely not see the money, he used it to win the auction and eliminate the possiblity of getting a neg.

Maybe he even registered an NPB against himelf to get his fees back! :D
