Captain_Combat Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 I just looked and a yellow boxed breakout sold for $81 for like 8 times the price. It's either gangsta LA or the $100,000 super Mario sell that's part investment and part publicity stunt to Garner media attention for wata game grading you choose.

Captain_Combat Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Thats tough to find in decent shape! The box is so flimsy. You definitely don't want to open it that often the flap wears easily and have seen some missing. If you're going to play it leave the game outside the box.

Captain_Combat Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Nice. I was bidding against you on the Indy 500 one that ended today. At least good to know that there was a legitimate winner on that one! It looked to be in great condition! Congrats. Now I wish you had won the auction. The box might have gotten to you in better shape if it took a different path ? there was a hole in the box on arrival.

Captain_Combat Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Ended up buying the game for $35 after negotiating with the seller 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/288334-what-am-i-missing-on-such-a-high-price-here/page/2/#findComment-4234657 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianoid Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Games sent to me by this seller were in an envelope and smashed. Useless to me in rough condition. I'm sure many of his items were returned. I'm getting a lot of boxed games in envelopes these days. Sellers aren't getting any smarter. And I'm returning a lot more than I used to. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/288334-what-am-i-missing-on-such-a-high-price-here/page/2/#findComment-4240242 Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what did you buy from this seller? Some prices set records. Seller had no choice but to send mine boxed and USPS put a big hole in the box. Seller filed a claim against USPS and I get a letter that they may require me to take it in to my local branch for verification lol but nothing happened. USPS criminals always try to defer blame. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/288334-what-am-i-missing-on-such-a-high-price-here/page/2/#findComment-4248599 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seller filed a claim against USPS and I get a letter that they may require me to take it in to my local branch for verification lol but nothing happened. USPS criminals always try to defer blame. Stuff I bought was very cheap. If the seller didn't buy insurance, you can only claim up to $100 on Priority Mail without it. USPS will pay but you need the receipt or PayPal invoice (to prove the value), original packaging and original item to prove it was damaged. You have to save all of that until the claim is finished. And it's best to take pictures when you receive a damaged package immediately and try to submit the claim as fast as possible. I have had claims paid on lost packages, but it may be harder on damaged packages. You have to be patient, and try to speak to people moving up the hierarchy. They are used to everyone being angry and frustrated at them so you have to try to be nice, Ian Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/288334-what-am-i-missing-on-such-a-high-price-here/page/2/#findComment-4248602 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Combat Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 I kept the box and took pictures before I opened it and sent them to the seller to file a claim. I'm basically out of the loop unless they contact me and want to see the box.

Captain_Combat Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 The seller will be making out better than eBay $94 claim plus my $35 damage offer that I sent to her PayPal.
