man... no comparison.  It is like Michaelangelo vs. a 3rd grader.

My apologies if the creator of this thing is a user here... but... wow. At least the seller isn't going for megabux.

Sparky's work is gorgeous. Exquisite. :)

I can't even comment on the eBay sludge. :(

Ho.  Lee.  Shit.

I guess that's what you get when you mix an inkjet printer, an eBay account, and Down's syndrome.

I guess that's what you get when you mix an inkjet printer, an eBay account, and an extra chromosome (or two).

So how about reporting the auction to let it taken down?

They tried to make me do a recap
I said no, no, no

That was courtesy of Punch?

Ha! I couldn't remember who made that. 

:)

There's a yerba mate joke on there, somewhere...

The box looks like shit, but the guy is being honest about it being a reproduction.   Anyone dumb enough to buy that will get what they deserve.

The fact that he put it up as an auction, though?  It tells me that somewhere, deep inside, he feels that this box could just take right off and cause a bidding war - which may be expected from someone who can't keep a logo in scale.

Funny, and that seller is a piece of shit. I recently bought PCE kickboxing from them. It was listed as "good" and in PM they said it had no scratches. The game is in shitty condition and has some super deep gouges in it and wont read properly. It was very cheap, so im not wasting time returning it. It also took 2 weeks to arrive.

Lost Monkey, i know first hand they are far from honest.

Point.  I was only referring to the fact that he calls it a reproduction several times in the description. Not trying to pass it off as legit.

He is also selling printed game covers from http://www.thecoverproject.net/  Greedy idiot with a printer...

I actually have some available still if anyone wants to put there's up on eBay with reference to this place to shut that guy down, I will replace your box and a small set of stickies as a thank you.

Not sure how the rules go on eBay if you can even reference this place but would be very satisfying to win one for the good guys. I guess I could put one up with my wife's account. Just not a user so is it a pain posting?

Hey anyone can make these, just like my spine stickers if they wanted but to get a final quality product it takes time and a bit of love for what you do and what you want to give to others even at a price. It shows I think.

This is pretty sad, you can tell the quality is just crap. Doesn't even compare to Sparkys
Pisses me of too because its just a stretched version of my dvd cover from thecoverproject with no mention of tcp
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=11168
I'm sick of people selling my tcp stuff on ebay with no mention that its free on tcp, especially when its usually bad quality ..but this is even more bizarre  #-o

are those flaps backwards ?
