Sorry to have to do this Vega...
« on: October 02, 2008, 08:48:08 PM »
...but you are hence forth forbidden to trade in any games without my permission.  This is due to your recent actions in what is now known as the "FF VI debacle".  Observe: (I'm using italics for my comments and bold for points of interest)

I sold it to Gamestop yesterday. (The "it" being FF6 on the GBA)

Anyway they had a 3rd party Wireless gamecube controller for $17.99.  I got an email this weekend from gamestop for 20% off any used accessory.  So I printed out the coupon and took some stuff:

Final Fantasy IV GBA
DS Rumble Pak
Konami: collector series GBA

Got $10.75 for it all.  With the 20% off I ended up only paying $3.93 for the Wireless Cube controller which is pretty good deal to me.

I tested it out at home and it works great. The main control stick seems loose, but it doesn't effect how your character moves. I got 30 days guarantee, NO rumble, but I am very pleased. Pelician G3

Ok.  I told you about Ebay and you said you had problems with it and decided to give up on it.  Please observe the following links:

Final Fantasy 6 final bid

<a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/Konami-Collectors-Series-Arcade-Advanced-Game-Boy_W0QQitemZ260295221462QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item260295221462&_trkparms=72%3A1205|39%3A1|66%3A2|65%3A12|240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14>Konami Collector series GBA[/url]

FF6 is going for between $15-25 dollars depending on box/instruction.  The Rumble Pak is going for around $4 and Konami Collector series around $6.  That's about $25-$35 depending on final bids.  Sell em all as a bundle and get around $30ish or so.

I know what you're saying, "Who cares?  I still got my controller which I'm ultra happy with."  Then please, please don't click on this link...it's just too painful:

Click here for sadness.

Now contrary to the degrading post above, I'm a really nice guy. Therefore, I'll be your Ebay liaison in the future.  Tell me what you want to buy/sell and I'll handle the rest.  K'?

I swear the only time you won't be ripped off by GameStop/EB is when you just stole a bunch of stuff and go trading all of it in.  I would suggest ebay to everyone, you can even research recent sales to figure out where you should price your own stuff.

With all due respect guys, there's no need to dedicate a post to criticising another community member.  No hard feelings, but I'm locking this thread.
