Wow...

At only $9.99 part of me is sorely tempted just to buy that tap just so I can get a look at it :-) I mean it's beyond the level of messed I've ever seen on a PC-E tap. I've seen a few models but none look like that one. Is it just a really messed up tap or is it some yet as of unheard of "Bonk Stone" Model.

But it's 85% NEW!!!!!!!

This is why we love you. We should all chip in, buy this artifact, and take turns sharing it. I'm willing to put $3 towards this goal... any other takers?

You got my 3 bucks!  We need one more...

I'd consider this one it's for the good of the team  now who would pay shipping........

I was poking around the PC Engine section of his store. Check out this relic:

Look at the picture. Look at it closely. Study it. First of all, what the hell is it? I've never seen a 'Tap like this before.

Next, check out the part where he talks about the condition. This thing is 85% NEW!!!! "Very good condition"!!! Jesus, I'd hate to see one of his 100% old items.

Ha ha ha, it's famous. I posted a thread about that a year ago or something. It's hilarious.

I'll contribute $10 towards the beauty.  I may take it to a jeweler and have them turn it into a necklace or something, a la Flava-Flave.  j/k

We could turn this thing into a kind of "My week with the Hard Stone Tap."  Different forum members have it for a week and post pics with it.  Then mail it to another member.  It's like taking care of the classroom hamster in 4th grade.

This may be funny only to me, and would require people to run to the post office, but I'm chuckling thinking about it. 

[FM-77]

I love the idea. A lot.

[guyjin]

i would also participate in the stone tap wackiness

We could post a visual blog in the vein of Keranu's PC-FX picnic.

This idea is made of sheer awesome and win. This needs to happen.

It could be a series of Stone Tap Reports live from across the USA. We can even do a map to follow the Stone Tap's travels across the country.

I'm just going to buy it.  First, I should make sure that I'm actually going to get what's pictured.  It would be a huge let down to get this tap in any better condition.

Never thought I'd read something like that in my lifetime.

[Keranu]

Haha, way to go, offsidewing! I fully support your purchase!

[nat]

It would be a huge let down to get this tap in any better condition.

Better send the seller and question and make sure it's still in 85% NEW condition.

[Carbon Tiger]

It begins..............

In all seriousness if this thing is 85% NEW~! what the hell is 0%, small amounts of internal wiring attached to a PC-E connector socket ?
