kroogur Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 So if I read all that right the seller is saying that it's Pitfall 2? and that it was never released due to the video game crash? And on a side note why do ebayers feel the need to scream in their auctions? It doesn't make me want to buy it just hurts my eyes and annoys me.

Sounds like Pitfall II to me, which could be an interesting find. The "nie veröffentlichtes" indicates the seller doesn't know a too much about VCS games.

the.golden.ax Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 And on a side note why do ebayers feel the need to scream in their auctions? It doesn't make me want to buy it just hurts my eyes and annoys me. I'm currently involved with a seller to whom I've paid $230. I asked for my tracking, and they wrote back in all caps (their auction was as well) that they would give me the information in a day or two because it is in their wife's care. I responded with a wikipedia link on caps lock shouting. No rude commentary on my part or anything, just a link. They wrote back in all caps something to the effect of "THAT'S HOW I TYPE. I'LL DO WHAT I F**KING WANT"... I have since not gotten my tracking or products. AX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I wonder what game the proto "star wars 4" is. You think it's a released one like Jedi or DSB? Could it possibly be Ewok? That would be cool if it was a new version of Ewok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Wonder007 Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 I put in token bids for those to see if I can any of them (two is cool for me)....more for trade bait. I have been finding out that I can get some very desirable items with trades than cash...weird but true. If the Star Wars proto was NTSC, I definitely would have put in a way higher bid limit for it. Besides, I am happy with my Star Wars Ewok Adventure original proto.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
