Adol is an idiot, plain and simple, but we need to lay off the "stupid french" comments since we do have some nice members from France here.  Plenty of f*ck tards and dipshits from here in the US as well.

I always see hugely overpriced listings from sellers in Europe. Does anyone actually pay over $200 for Kazekiri, just to save a few dollars on shipping the game at half the price from outside Europe?
Maybe they get hit with sizable import duty fees if it comes from the US or Japan but not from the EU?
I personally never buy anything at Ebay due to ridiculous prices in general. If I can't find what I need on Swedish auction sites (typically 50-75% of Ebay prices), I buy directly from Japan. But yes, there are no duty fees at all within the European Union and I suspect that's the main reason Europeans may think it's worth it.

I just read that whole monstrosity and I honestly don't believe that is the real "Adol."

How could someone with half a brain amass such a large collection?  It seemed highly apparent it was some sort of high school aged troll just getting a reaction.  The twin stuff was borderline RegalSin and the link to the NY Times article gave me a chuckle.  Best part of the whole thread was page 8 or 9 when Cosmos came in and the "who the hell is this guy?" response was given.

With that said, I am a strong supporter of crowd-sourcing to have these prototype ROMs released.  It is fair that the procurer of such items get something back.  When the items are hoarded, then it is just the ultimate dick waving low self-esteem trying to make up for a lost childhood f*ckery there is.

No, it's just being French (according to Adol):

    I don't, as it's in my best interest to keep my purchases to myself.  Notice that that is the exact definition of selfishness.



That's where it differs in Europe.
Using by yourself something you paid isn't considered selfishness in my country,but normal use. Your definition of selfishness is mistaken,or at least not worldwidely true.
nobody would say you're selfish because you'll eat the sandwich you paid for, instead of giving it to the first hobo you met,like Sinistron for example.




At least he's not an evil commie like Grover, brainwashing future generations into not keeping unreleased games from video game players.


I can't find a clip of the Fox News segment where they expose this propaganda, but if what Adol says is true, it would explain the nickname "Faux News".

It appears Adol has now got into getting his eBay sales VGA graded
http://www.ebay.com/sch/m.html?_odkw=&item=301194584377&pt=Video_Games_Games&_osacat=0&hash=item462098a139&_ssn=collectors_king&_trksid=p2046732.m570.l1313.TR12.TRC2.A0.H0.Xvga&_nkw=vga&_sacat=0&_from=R40


So common and overprinted games get a $200 - $2000 bump in value by being graded?


Yeah, you didn't know. I wish I had a shit ton of disposable income to buy all that shit up and crack em all open just to piss off the masses that think getting it graded makes it more valuable. Time to start playing the lotto.
