Why don't people read the descriptions?

Sure, it's a scam auction, but the scam isn't very well hidden. I mean, it's even in bright red text, centered. And yet... 41 bucks.

Well, we shouldn't judge. Maybe they just really like cheat codes.

That's just dumb, but there are some really thick retarded people out there.

I have a personal policy of never buying anything on eBay unless I have seen a proper photo of the item first. Satisfed with the picture, I then go and read through the auction.

well.. i dont always read the descritipion that closely. Like I recently bought something and I didnt see that the guy didnt accept Paypal (who will sell on Ebay in USA without having Paypal? :/) because i assumed that he took Paypal. He had over 180 in feedback. 99% of all Ebay'ers have Paypal.

As much as the buyer is to blame for not reading the auction description eBay seems to allow auctions like these by allowing auctions with deceiving titles.

Oh well, one more buyer who'll learn the hard way to read descriptions first before bidding.

There are som internet filters out that will remove sertain words i think. If you are afraid that your kids might read "bad" words, I would recommend to install one of these :)

Or you could try and tone down the language.

I don't really see any reason you couldn't have said "stupid" or "idiot"...I think you would have gotten your point across.

well.. true that, but i was thinking more generaly. You cant controll whats on the internet. So i just wanted to recommend this if he didnt knew about it.

I know about filters, but I was just hoping for a LOT more from people on DigitalPress.

I mean this isn't GameFaq's is it ? LOL

Ja i agree just say stupid or whatever cursing doesn't solve it,back to the topic,since i'm on dp i check auctions much closer.A mistake is easily made and Ebay doesn't do anything about sellers like this one,bummer.

Interesting. Since when are people suddenly offended by obscenities here? Raise your kids however you want, but if you think that your kids don't hear all those words at school and use them themselves at school, then you're a retard. No offense, but get a grip, get over it, and get a filter. jajaja is right.

I really hate sellers that use titles of the game only and then say its for cheat codes, come on get real. Just say that they are for codes in the title no reason to try and scam.

Poor people....while the buyers may be idiots the seller is no angel....I hate people who make deceptive auctions like this.

Live your life the way you want but DON'T presume to know what my kids hear and how they are raised.

And don't EVER call someone a Retard and then say"No Offense". :roll:

And people that have to use obscenities on the DP Forums for absolutely no reason are retards. No offense. :P

I thought this auction's title was a little misleading also.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=62053&item=8172736743&rd=1

At least they are getting an actual game intstead a cheat on a piece of paper or in an e-mail. Also notice that out of all of this sellers auctions this (or these as he actually has multiple of these listings on ebay) are the only ones without a pic or even stock photo. What an A-Hole!

Yup. Someone just got burned. It took me about 30 seconds to figure out what the deal was with that auction.

What is wrong with this auction? I dont see anything spesial.

Maybe I'm niave for assuming so but i always figured that it was a given that you don't use obscene language on these boards. After all, isn't the Happy Hours Pub around just for that?

Goodness jonjandran, that's a few times now that I agreed with you. ;)

I don't even know if this breaks any official DP rules, but I'm tired of reading it. Place nice, or play in someone else's forum.
