Goochman Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Guess thats how you get 10 auctions out of 1 listing........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ransom Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Star Raiders "needs repair" -- $9.95 for the bare cart?? And $29.95 for each of the others?? I guess that's fine for people who don't know about BEST, B&C, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the-topdog Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I guess that's fine for people who don't know about BEST, B&C, etc. Being serious here... I don't know about those places? Do they have websites? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ransom Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I guess that's fine for people who don't know about BEST, B&C, etc. Being serious here... I don't know about those places? Do they have websites? Sure. I'll just link to the 8-bit game parts of the various websites. But they each carry a lot of other stuff as well. BEST Electronics' 8-bit games B&C Computervisions' 8-bit games Video 61's 8-bit games In no case are the websites beautiful, but I've dealt with all three of them for many years and am a satisfied customer.

djpubba Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Be sure to ask if the carts are original or copies before you buy, as I've gotten burned buying stuff I assumed would be original from some of those places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philflound Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I hate people who sell things like this. He's saving money on the listing cost. I also don't know anyone who'd pay such high prices for common carts. Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldgames Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I thought it was against eBay's rules to do a 'choice' auction. Did they change that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philflound Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Post a link because I never heard of Ebay limiting auctions like that. In fact, my buddy is about to put up many vintage baseball and basketball cards from the 1970s in a similar fashion. Like $1 per common, here's the list. The thing that is different from the old days of Ebay is that you can now modify your description, even if something is purchased. Former times would not allow you to modify the initial description, only add to description. This has helped me when I have multiples of the same game. Some of the boxes may be damaged, but I don't mention it in the description until I reach those damaged games. Then I modify it.

oldgames Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Looks like this is o.k., as long as the listing has multiple available so eBay still gets their cut on each sale. From eBay's help pages Offering choices By using listings with variations, sellers can offer variations of the same product in a single listing. Allowed Using listings with variations to offer a choice of size, color, and material in items such as clothing and home items Not allowed Selling different brands of an item, such as jeans, in a single listing Offering a choice between two entirely different items, such as a watch or pair of shoes Selling items that aren't in similar condition, such as a new and a refurbished laptop, in the same listing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
