Title: Round two of: Retarded people pay too much for stuff on Ebay.

Why do people fall for this shit every single time?

Utter desperation makes them not read the text but press the bid button.

At least it hasn't reach the silly $5,000-$10,000 prices that actual consoles reach.  :-o

Checked-out the seller's profile.. says "No Longer a registered user."   Someone probably reported 'em.  E-bay has little tolerance for these 'jokes.'

We have a 360 in the local paper, $1000 firm.

I'm debating with myself whether I should post his number on the internet so everyone can call him a fucking scumbag and he has to get his number changed.

Fucking leaches. Err...sorry, I mean...good little capitalist! Fucking America.

Anyway. The ebay thing...that's funny :)

I must admit, I almost coughed up $300 for a limited-edition Hello Kitty XBox. But only almost. Instead, I have a collection of only slightly chipped Taylor Smith Taylor 'King Odell' patterned china from the 50s. WAY more useful.

I kinda hafta have it. But I got no job, ninja! I can't justify a purchase that big unless my cat needs surgery. Or unless I spend it on Sauced. He would see straight through a gift of Hello Kitty XBox.

It's a bummer the seller got banned.  I mean, it says that the box is empty.  I just don't like it when smart people lose.
