    Default IF this is real it's very tempting. :)

    I'm half way sure it's a scammer, but I wanted to know for sure.

    What makes you think it's a scam? Just because the guy has a feedback of 3 doesnt automatically make him a scammer. Looks like he is just starting to sell stuff. The date on the picture is about right so unless he faked the date in photoshop or something I would be inclined to believe that the pic is real and not lifted off of another auction...Maybe it is a scam but nothing about his auction suggests to me that it is. The guy has 18 unique auctions up right now. All I'm saying is that if I collected for NGPC I would bid on the auction.

    I wouldnt hesitate to bid on it. He/she accepts Paypal. So, if it doesnt turn up legit, you can try to get your money back thru your credit card company or Paypal (yea right)

    Don't seem like a scam to me. He has good feedback, and doesn't seem to un legite to me.
    Somebody make me a "CGE 2k7 Attendee banner" so I don't have to use this lame text

    I can see why he might think so. CD based games are so easy to copy, it seems suspicious that someone would sell a "prototype" for so little.

    Whenever it comes to ebay, remember this:

    Thrill Kill is to PSX as Half Life is to DC. A bootleg. Not the original proto. You're better off downloading it yourself.

    As for the first NGPC auction, Game Zone is a brick and mortar establishment in Arizona (2 or 3 stores, actually) . I've bought several of my import games there (NGPC included). You shouldn't have much to worry about from them.
