EricDeLee Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 You ever miss out on games because you are at work? I knew I was going to miss out on this one, and forgot to add another bid. I wasn't really gunning after this lot, but if it was cheap I was going to try to steal it! Item number: 250217433582 (Sorry I can't give the link... I'm at work) I know it had a Pitfall II in it... but that cart under it was pretty nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricDeLee Posted February 25, 2008 Author Share Posted February 25, 2008 Most links are blocked (government) However that sniping one wasn't. I'll keep that one handy. I at least can see the emails in hotmail. So I know when they are about to end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpendTooMuchOnAtari Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Yeah, I was actually scared of the sniping thing at first because of having to give them your password but I signed up a few months ago and haven't had a problem. In fact, it's helped me win most of the auctions I used it for. Many people are against it for whatever reason but it works for me. Good luck!

cosmosiss Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 I use baygenie for all my snipping needs when I'm not at home/sleeping/busy. I'm always paranoid that those sites could get hacked and their databases dumped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemoncurry Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 I use baygenie for all my snipping needs when I'm not at home/sleeping/busy. I'm always paranoid that those sites could get hacked and their databases dumped. So what if it did? You tell eBay, they let you off the hook for any auctions someone else bid on as you (unlikely), they end any auctions any scammers started as you (which usually happens before you even realize there's a problem, they tend to get reported quickly), they clean out any resultant feedback, you change your password, you're good to go!

holygrailvideogames.com Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 I had that one on my watch list as well. I forgot to bid on this auction and the auction with Glib in it that ended today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zwackery Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 the auction with Glib in it that ended today. That one went for $56.55...oh yeah, and the $35 shipping charge for a 7800 with 2 paddle controllers, 1 Joy Stick, 2 Space Age Joy Sticks and 2 Joy Sticks, and 21 loose carts in various conditions. Maybe if the seller would have had a more reasonable shipping charge, the seller might have actually made more money. I know that when I saw the shipping I said there was no way I was going to bid on this, even if the auction only sold for a buck. Nice stuff, yeah, but I just don't abide inflated shipping charges.
