Well, folks, ten cent listing day compelled me to list my 2 sealed R.O.B's


Don't know if anyone will buy'em, but there seems to be lots of interest at least.

good luck with your auction.

I'm confused. Why would you sell 2 sealed ROB's in one auction? Free Bump.

For the hell of it, simplicity, to drum up interest, lots of reasons, mostly I'm lazy ;)

11 watchers so far, and averaging just over 100 page hits a day, 3 days into the auction, it's exciting if anything.

I would be more surprised if they sold than didn't really, I did have 2 serious offers at 700 for the pair previously, though they fell through for various reasons.

And ten cent listing was on Sunday, didn't you get the memo? ;)

Fuck US ebay. Seriously. Whenever I list stuff I am always a few days off or a few days too late. Sorry to take away from the thread, but it just pisses me off. No more thread jacking, sorry.

Good luck with your sale, and seriously... if i had the funds those would be sitting in my collection as I type.

Don't feel too bad Josh. You wouldn't believe what a pain in the ass it is constantly dealing with customs :/

Yeah, and shipping costs to Canada are an excuse to rake in extra dough for so many sellers too :(

We just get screwed on everything possible, basically. From shipping costs to paypal fees, to the exchange rate paypal gives us, it's all a screw job. Paypal fees for US residents are what, about 3%? 4% here plus a 2-3% exchange spread when you withdraw. So the fees are effectively double when you sell. Then you have packages not showing up (I've had two in the past three months and others previously that were sent from 110% trustworthy sellers), packages getting sent back to the seller (one in last three months and others previously), customs opening sealed games (thanks for opening my sealed snow bros, breakthru, and pro sport hockey - assholes).

I could go on and on. I'm sure us ebay can be a pain once in a while too but honestly you guys in the US have no idea how easy and hassle free you have it :/

So if they don't sell are you going to relist them seperately or will you offer them, or at least one of them, here on this site?

I think he allready put them up for sale in the B/S forum, and nobody bought them.
