read the fine print stupid! Guy on e-bay just bought an empty box!

[themadscientist]

No I'm sorry I meant the big red print at the bottom of the page!$147 for an empty box, smooth move assclown Hey, anybody want to buy a Greddy E-manage box for $100?

[MinisterofDOOM]

Hahahahahahahahahaha..haha. What a MORON. He bid more than you'd pay at most stores, anyhow...and he didn't even bother to read EITHER bit of red text stating that it is JUST the BOX and not the card...

I wish I'd thought of that. Maybe I'll sell my Steel Battalion box. I could get $150 out of it.

[themadscientist]

"Please be honest is the winner". Are you sure about that? He seems to be sort of a loser at this point.

[MinisterofDOOM]

I wonder when he'll realize that it's empty...

It would have made me laugh even more if it said "Bidding was ended early with 'Buy it Now'"

[themadscientist]

I wouldn't have beleived it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes. My god man that is weapons-grade stupidity!Dude! he outbid SEVEN OTHER GUYS for the box!

http://offer.ebay.com/ws/eBayI...78271

[MinisterofDOOM]

I know...And TWO of those people upped THIER OWN bids, one by 5 and the other by 10. Whole truckload of morons!

WHY would you outbid yourself? Oi...Oi...

Check out the rating of the "winner"

This all makes me laugh and cry at the same time...

[themadscientist]

Yeah I noticed that too. Maybe they were twitching with anticipation at the prospect of all the things they were going to do with their box and doubletapped the bid button. I see the buyer is "lightning fast" with payment. I wonder how fast he pays for the empty box. Somebody this stupid should be sterilized so they can't pollute the gene-pool.

[HashiriyaS14]

You wonder if it's just a couple of the seller's friends or something bidding on his auction with no intention of actually paying.

It's almost too stupid to be true.....

[Meantime]

Wow. Wonder what I'll get for my empty Nismo box?

[elwesso]

There was a post on another forum of a guy who bought a 1280x960 JPEG of an Xbox... He paid 170 for it...

Hey, the seller offered FREE SHIPPING!!

[MaineExport]

Yeah... no fewer than 5 people bid more than $10 for that empty box! Tools... complete tools. I'm surprised the seller still has a 100% rating... I bet he won't for long! Even though it's the buyer's fault... I'm sure the idiot will leave negative feedback for the seller.

[nismofly]

whats he going to say though? oh, i bought an empty box, but it was his fault that im stupid

[gniknave]

Hmmm....funny, yet the front and rear brembo brake rotors brand new unopened for a 97-99 Acura CL that I listed for $80 and discounted shipping never even got a bid. I wonder about people...

[mkory]

I'm definately selling all of my empty boxes from now on. The first thing I did was check out the last 3 items this guy bought. (couldn't help but wonder) I can see the next feedback now... "Wow, can't believe he paid so much for an empty box! GREAT BUYER!

[PoorManQ45]

I have the card that goes in that box!

Unfortunately I don't have the box. So I don't know if I could get much money for it

[JESTER]

I started to send the seller a question, and ask him if he was really gonna try to get that guy to follow through on paying $147.50, for a stupid box.

I feel some negative feedback coming on.

[BomexS13]

OWNED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!HAHAAHAAHa

[mkory]

Hey, did you really ask him if he were going to expect payment for the empty box? If not, I will.

[574-240sx]

Thats halarious. Somebody should ask the winner if they want to buy some more boxes because I have some that I was going to throw out.

[JESTER]

No, but I thought about it.

If you do, tell we said, "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

[mkory]

Consider it done. I'm gonna ask both the buyer and seller questions if it'll let me. I'm definately anticipating answers to these and I'll keep yous guys notified.

[underground57]

OWNED! LOL, Can people not read? Or do they just have money to throw away?

[themadscientist]

wait, $5.00 more to put the box IN A BOX to ship to the "winner" unce

[574-240sx]

wait, $5.00 more to put the box IN A BOX to ship to the "winner" unce

HAHA $5.00 to ship a empty box. That person got owned pretty bad.

[Looneybomber]

I know...And TWO of those people upped THIER OWN bids, one by 5 and the other by 10. Whole truckload of morons!

WHY would you outbid yourself? Oi...Oi...

It's auto bidding for them. Say the bid is at 10 dollars and guy A bids a max of 20. Assuming 10 is the max that the other guy bid, then guy A's bid will be 12.50. If I come along and bid a max of 17.50 the bid will automatically jump to 20.00 with guy A being the high bidder still. Then when you look at the history it will show guy A bidding 12.50 and then 20.00 without me even being listed, cuz I was never winning the bid at any time.

Ahh, I see. I've never used ebay before. I don't trust internet sales...Hell I hate giving my SSN to the bank teller.

[themadscientist]

I'm just pissed I lost the auction man! whoops

[MinisterofDOOM]

I'm just pissed I lost the auction man! whoops

[themadscientist]

No BS, my video card arrived today from Newegg, who wants to buy the box?

[MinisterofDOOM]
