Boo ... I sell you mine for $2500. Deal? Lowballer. (;

I know!  I can hardly get to sleep at night knowing how all the families of ebay sellers are probably at home cold and starving.  I guess maybe it is worth $2450 more than I thought.  You know, for the peace of mind.

I wander if the families of ebay sellers get their groceries from eBay as well?

I presume yes.

I can only imagine. 

Amazon has a "Pantry" program to buy food from them, it's pretty weird.

Since no local grocers carry 'em, I buy microwave pork rinds from Amazon.  But 'normal' foods?  Yeah, that's weird.

Pork rinds warm and toasty from your microwave; they're not exactly health food, but they're no worse than microwave popcorn, tater chips, etc.

Many grocery stores have online ordering now through a service. Peapod, etc. Great for the older folks or those without transportation.

Microwave pork rinds, THAT'S weird.  :shock:

I buy cans of root beer from Amazon as we don't sell it in stores here in the UK.

And they're great if you're on a low carb diet too.

hey hey, check this one out...
Shit, cant find the link right now...
WELL anyway, theres apparently a guy in my town (Athens, GA.) that has a craigslist post up with some random SNES boxed titles, some loose NES stuff, and an unteseted naked TG16 with NOTHING. Just to give you guys a taste of how bad it is, this guys has a 100$ price quote for StreetFighter 2 CIB SNES... Well apparently his normal-looking TG16 was some wierd promo/exclusive or something since he claims it never was sold here in the states, and therefore is worth 150$ with no cables, no controllers, and no gaurantee that it even works... maybe i can't find the listing because I flagged it when I saw it last nite 8D

Ok, so maybe this isnt definition "gouging" because it kinda seems like the dude just has no idea what a TG16 is OR how the hell to use google... maybe just sheer stupidity?

Wanna talk about gouging? I had a vendor over at PRGE try to sell me a U.S Duo uncapped I might add for $775! Didn't even come with Keith Courage, the nerve!

Good lord.  I've always known con prices are exorbitant, but that is like priced just to prey on the ignorant.
