Any actually ever BUY anything from Bulleye?

I told my girlfriend, who is a lawyer, about Bullseye and she had two things to offer:

1) In response to the poster above who joked "libel and slander be damned!", she pointed out that it's only libel or slander if what you're saying isn't true.  As long as you're being factual, you have every right to badmouth Bullseye.

2) She was very interested in the "Mini Strategy Guides" he's selling.  If they are in fact printed up from a website somewhere, his selling them for cash is illegal.  She suggested someone buy one of the guides, figure out what site it's from, and alert that site that their content is being sold by Ryan on eBay.

This is wrong to do, but here's how you fix the bullseye problem-

Step 1: Everyone on the forum signs up for a new ebay account
Step 2: Everyone bids on one of his items
Step 3: Everyone does not pay
Step 4: Everyone leaves negative feedback

I'm not advocating anyone do this, but that's how you fix a problem like this.  The guy has never screwed me- but then again I've never bought anything from him- never will either...


All those in favor say AYE...

AYE! :lol:


That's not bad idea. I'll do it, if a few more people agree. Lets bring his feedback down to 70.1%

This reminds me of this buyer on Ebay called Eastcoastgamer. He sucks ass, he buys up everything. Example Dracula X on the SNES. he bought all 4 that were auctioned at the same time. He even bought them at high prices no matter what conditioned (one had a rental sticker on the label) giving collectors no chance of getting the games, me for example. He buys like 10 games a day, check his feeback. Now I need to find out what his seller name is.

He is another prime example of a seller that buys everything up AT EBAY and then jacks the prices up and sells them AT EBAY. This shit should be illegal.

Yeah I hate those f*ckers that buy shit up and then jack the prices on them, they're just plain a$$holes.  They're the reason turbo games started going for insane prices, I remeber a few years ago when there were only a handful of games over $100 and now it seems like any US game that's boxed goes for insane amounts.

Turbo games are getting bad prices these days. I remember when the Turbo List page used to sell Turbo Duos brand new for $150 and TZD for $200. Now the price of them used is going to be $200 at the least.

Yeah thats why I took the oportunity to buy a brand new Turbo Duo boxed and mint for like $150 or $200. Man its been a while, this was like in 1999-2000or so, gotta find the receipt.

Anyway, I guess the reason why Turbo games are so expensive boxed is because you have a CD jewel case inside a box if its US. Most of all people back then either throw away the boxes or they get smushed (my boxes are smushed since I had them since 1991-92 and was like 10 years old. So this explains the high prices on boxed games for this system.

I usually don't look to buy Turbo games that are complete with the cardboard box since it's not common these days, but I still make sure that I get the game, instruction manuel, and jewel case. When it comes to Japanese games, same rules and I don't care much for a spine. I only like to buy games THAT complete if it's a special game to me.

Vrolokus, your blog was pretty funny int hat the manual for Order of the Griffon originated from me. It's circulated quite a bit over the years. I never sold to Bullseye directly.

I sold OOTG with the game, box, and manual. People out there are swapping parts.

Any games that sport a Video Nation sticker are good. They were not rented much (Some probably not at all). I picked up those games around 1996 or so from the back room of the video store when they were removed from the store shelves due to taking up space (not renting). I received many duplicates, and at least half of the TG-16 US collection from that store.

All of the duplicates from that store I sold on ebay, the last went up for sale 2004. Many games and booklets I was able to remove the stickers from with no noticeable marks.

Don't be too cautious about TG-16 games form rental stores, chances are they may not have been played much.

dudes, did you ever check out Vroklus (sp) blog? It wasn't until I read Mr. Fulci's comment above that I read Vrokoluskks' (sorry, I just can't remember this name) great blog entry. Check out the instruction manual that Bullseye sent him!

Good job :)

Same for me as well i'm not worry about getting a, TG16 game complete with the box.

Unless it's the only way i can get the game np then.

Most of the time i just perfer the... TG16 game to have it's jewelcase and manual nothing more.

Yeah for a while i pleaded with Bullseye to give me a better deal on his US Soldier Blade with manual.  (Its been sitting there on Ebay forever now)  He refused and refused.

I just got one with the manual for about $30 on Ebay.  Clean as hell.  

That guy's a complete numbnut.   I had dreams where I broke into wherever he keeps all that stuff, stole it and gave it away to all turbo fans.  Sort of like a Robin Hood sort of thing.

That guy needs to sit on his finger.

Forgot to mention he wants $65 for it and shipping is more.
