So are you looking to get $445 probably?

Scream And Fly
12-02-2005, 06:47 PM
If you add up all those items, you'll see that it cost me about that to begin with, so I would like a little more. $449 without tax, to be exact.

How much for Project Gotham?

nik
12-02-2005, 07:05 PM
Thats the price it sells at stores, remember, I said minus the game/memorycard/extra controller.

449 + shipping or shipped?

If you're willing to part out I might be interested, I have no need for the game or memory card, and I want a wireless controller so I don't need that extra one either.

I'll be willing to part it out if the price(s) are right.


nik, I'm not willing to sell it for what it sells for in stores. Would you sell a new toploader NES for $49?

I'm not looking for a crazy profit either, but those that wait in line for 12 hours deserve to sell at a profit.

REALLY? Do you have one righ now? I can use it! :-P

Now returning to topic, I guess that if anyone spends 12 hours waiting for something, you either keep it because you REALLY want it or sell it in the following 12 hours because you're there for a profit, and not waiting until the traces are already cold and someone can get it easily and comfortably...

My 0.20 cents ;)

If I were you I would've sold it on ebay. What was the purpose of you buying the Xbox360 if you waited 12 hours in line then? Your not playing it sooo. Come on...its all about profits right now. Everyone knows it. Get with the game.

49$, sure, if I want to make a fast sale.

As for profit, you can blow me.

Assholes like you are the reason so many kids will be disapointed when they wake up Xmas morning, assholes like you are the reason I have to pre-order.

Assholes like you make pawn shop owners look like saints.

Personally, I hope you get stuck with it.

Asshole.

You're both way out of line here. Nik, you've got no right to tell him what he can sell for how much profit. Scream, you should've been the adult here and just ignored him, but what you just said is going to prevent anyone from buying anything from you.

I vote for a lock before this gets any uglier.

Ok, I lied, I’ll do the deal minus the $459.

Oh, I know I'm out of line, but I only said what was on everyones mind, maybe in the end he's just smarter then me, and gets more money for somthing that retails at a lower price, to me thats just horseshit, and I invite him to stimulate himself with a crowbar.

Minor loss of cool, good luck with your sale Scream, if you wish, PM me, and I will delete my posts.

No need to remove your posts, Nik. By all means, show everyone here your real character. I removed my post because smokehouse was right - I should not have reacted to your post on impulse.

Funny thing is, many people will hunt pawn shops and thrift stores looking for items, only to resell them here at a higher price. So, would selling a unique store display that I received for nothing be just as bad? What about selling a complete and mint copy of Chrono Trigger that I bought at a recent garage sale for $4.00? Maybe I should just be a rebel and sell everything I get for the same price I pay for it. I'm sure that's what you do. I think you get my point.

So, I'll expect you to hunt for rare items, use your time and expense to do so, and sell those items for the very same price on here, otherwise you'll get called an "asshole".

Do I have a problem with people that resell items here at a higher price? No way - they spent the time and money to find those items, and they deseve to get paid for it. If I don't want an item, I won't trash someone else's thread.

And, FYI: I am selling this because I was able to get a Premium system right after. I did not want to go the route of Ebay, but people like you make that a good option now.

I purchased a lot of items from members here, but this crap makes me not even want to post here anymore.

I could care less how you justify it, you're a prick if you ask more then what you paid for that RETAIL ITEM.

Games like Chrono Trigger, sure, sell for what it goes for, you can't get it in stores now, or in a week, or a month.

The XboX 360 is diffrent, Character my ass, you've got your price showing yours.

Belive it or not, most of the items I sell I price less then what I paid, sometimes I break even. I don't have time for pawn shops, I shop at game stores, I paid $79.95 for a RATTY ASS CONDITION complete Breath of Fire II, I'm selling a loose copy for 20 bucks.

Had you of asked for what it retailed, plus a few bucks for your time, gas and whatever, sure, sometimes you've got to take the loss, I know I have at times, I call it the "retal fee" I had it for a while, now I cut my losses and sell it cheap.

I'm not telling you you're a prick for selling at what you paid for it, and I'm not telling you to sell your old games that will never be at retail again for what you pay for them, hell, Chrono Trigger went for more then the 40$ a loose cart it goes for now, WHEN IT WAS NEW, same with all games, some have surpassed their own previous retail, some are worthless.

I am calling you an ASSHOLE, for trying to profit over a retail item, easy way to make your cash back, is to RETURN IT, try it out!

Also, if you have the premium system, why are you selling your game, and extra controller then?

Odd. Yes indeed, Character.

Hey moron, I had enough from you. Maybe you should shut your sausage-washer with your self-righteous bullshit.

I bought my Premium as part of another bundle that came with the same damn game (not that I have to justify crap to you). It was the only way I could get a Premium. Yeah, you have me all figured out. Sure you do.

I tried to play it cool with you, but I see you're just a moron that is only interested in threadcrapping.

If you don't want the item, then stay of this damn thread.

Gentlemen, please:

If you have something to say to each other, use the PMs.

There is no need on making this public.

I just passed a bitter moment with someone who just couldn't stop or keep it private. I call upon your senses to stop this.

Is it fair to expect a little more for your time? Sure.
Is it fair to sell an item higher than you paid? Yup.
Is is nice to get les sthan you expected? OH DAMM, NO WAY! But it happens, and when you get an item new and use it, you just cannot expect to get up to the pennies for what you paid.

There must be a middle point between fair compensation and "use depressiation" - Thing no one will find if you keep this the way is going: downhill.

Also, I am calling out Berzerker to close this thread, and if you want to start other, go ahead.

Thanks.

Thanks Nik - you can follow your Xbox 360 crusade all over the Internet for all I care. Have a good one, and thanks for your wonderfully-said opinions.

Archenemy - will do. I really tried to do the right thing here. And the system is indeed new, never used. It's not like I bought 10 of these with the intention of selling them off. I tried to avoid Ebay by listing it here. Maybe a mistake.

If I were you I would wait...there is gonna be more shipments out of the 360 around Decemeber 15-18 or so. So hang in there. The core system is not worth $600...unless money is not a factor for you. Then go for it.

Sale spoiling
Please do not march into a thread and state that you can get an item for $X on eBay or some other online store. If you think their price may be too high, don't be rude about it. If others feel the same way, then it won't sell. This is a hobby where each person gives an item a different monetary worth. While it's fine to look out for others, people should also do research into the item they are buying.

Similarly, if you want an item that someone else is also asking for, it is better etiquette that you create your own topic with your contact information, trade list, or the price you're willing to pay.

It's a pretty good deal for the entire bundle, and I'd rather be guaranteed one before Christmas than to be left out in the dark. I called up my stores and they said they wouldn't have them until after Christmas. This may or may not be true, but I don't have a car to go around and search the stores in my area.

So it works out well for me. I can just pick up the hard drive after Christmas. It's all good. =)

Used to be a battlezone a long time ago. Serious waste of time. Crap should be settled through pm's.

Doesn't matter when the shipments are in, its all hearsay, people tell me the 7th, and not until January, people WILL pay retarded amounts of money, I'm sure they have the brains to know better without you letting them know, if he wants to pay it, let him, don't take away someones sale for no reason at all.

My argument with Scream is self contained, be it with an audience, my beef isn't about killing his sale, giving people information that is not fact based isn't a good idea, and as the above stated, is Sale Spoiling.

Scream, just restart your thread.

I dont want anything bro. I dont care. That other guy wants an Xbox360 and is willing to pay $600 for it. I didnt say anything about you can get this for that price here and there. If he wants to pay that then go ahead. Talk to him...not me. I dont give a shit about the Xbox360. It's the hype thats what it is. Shortage my ass...they'll have enough for everyone.

12-03-2005, 01:50 AM
There are people on these boards looking to buy a 360 for cmas. If they can't find one at retail and can't live without it most will end up overpaying on ebay. If a board member offers a price less than the going rate I think it should be welcomed. People on these boards who ARE selling for top dollar on ebay and who post a link to that auction aren't getting berated.

Good luck with your sale. Not everyone here is an "asshole".

Having just read over this, I don't blame you. Nik, for the love of god man, this is the BUYING & SELLING FORUM. Its purpose is for conducting business. If you're just looking to flame and threadcrap, then you have no business in the thread. If you really have that much of a problem with what someone is doing here, either contact them privately or start a webpage. DO NOT CRAP ALL OVER THEIR SELLING THREAD. Thank you.
