That is one ugly gameboy.

[Insaneclown]

HHhhhhmmmm...that is sure one nutty auction.

Ha, like i'd give someone a $30,500 US GAMEBOY for christmas... I think i'd buy myself a car, or a place to rent out for that money... :roll:

Yeeesh. It's hard to believe this is for real.

Yeah, not a pretty Game Boy at all.

[Whiskers the Wonder Cat]

Gameboy goes Hollywood.

[gepeto]

more like the wrong stuff

Forget about someone trying to sell it, but why would anyone get that done to their gameboy in the first place?

[Whiskers the Wonder Cat]

If you're rich, you would do anything.

Maybe it was a Nintendo prize? Like those jewel-encrusted joysticks from Atari.

I thought the same thing, but actually, I think it is real. It looks like they saw it at this high end specialty store CLICK (http://www.swisssupply.com/nintendo.php). Check out the pictures, they are the same as the ones on the auction.

But, those guys ares selling it for $25,000. so, tyou buy it on ebay, the ebay guy then buys it from the above web page, has it sent to you, and pockets a cool $5,000. Sneaky jerk.

But seriously, who would buy this from a person with zero feedback?

... is that (Capital city of France) Hilton's Gameboy or something?

Edit: I don't like wordfilters, and this wasn't meant to be a joke. I think I heard that she had a DS laminated and jeweled.

Edit 2: Seems I was right, sort of... (http://www.kotaku.com/gaming/oddities/paris-hilton-ds-122408.php)

OOH shiny...................... 8-)

Apparently, according to somehting I saw on VH1 there is also a gold and Diamond encrusted PSP that sells for I think $30,000 possibly more.

I doubt the guy would even deliver. Send $25,000 to a zero feedback seller? Yeah right. He even stole his auction pics right from the website you linked.

After rechecking the auction, looks like eBay removed it. Wonder what policy he broke? :?
