    Isn't that a terrible waste of money, what's the bet though that 80% of the bids are fake...

    I thought you had to register to bid once the price went past a certain point. I'm sure that's what happened when the pope's hat was auctioned off a few months ago.

    There are some very wealthy videogame collectors out there, so you never know. :D

    I've always wondered since you can actually open up VGA stuff anymore, who's to say they're not just replacing the contents with a brick (as an exaggerated example) and selling on a cart-only job for muncho profit?

    The A in VGA stands for authority so you can be sure that a game with 60+ wizard points is worth 20 times as much with a plastic case.

    Looks like it was relisted and someone made an offer (which was accepted)

    I wonder how much the offer was for?

    Well, since it says
    Payment is by Paypal only
    I can only hope the buyer doesn't complain to Paypal that product is not as advertised, and asks for their cash back?

    The cynic in me says it's a good way to move cash around?

    Don't see why not. There have been cases of people using rare/vintage comic books to launder and move money across borders.
