Mclaneinc Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Yup, makes it even more bizarre when you show it next to actual normal stuff we sell / buy.... Same price as a car.. I watched the Antiques Roadshow last night, stuff from the 1780's was going for 100.00 or less, proper antiques, yet this person want's 10k for an item from the 1990's. Sure, some stuff went for more, but they were things that were in royal houses and were almost the last ones around, but 10k, none of them saw that price.. What history has that Jag got, fumbled around with by a spotty oik that thinks sex is getting the high score in Tempest 2000...Bloody controllers need a wipe down for sure... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a family with two daily-driver diesels, even using the premium gas the Jag requires would still be an improvement for us.

Vyvyan B. Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 Only $268.3/GB Quite a bargain. He's even throwing in the rambling wall of text for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deffroe Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 (edited) Another Ebay bargain... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/234783638478 Only £400 for a definitely broken XEGS. At least seller is open to offers👍 Edited November 27, 2022 by deffroe 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mclaneinc Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 And yet again, the person wants huge money but can't even be bothered to give the item a clean for pictures.. I'd be worried what I could catch off that... At least they didn't do the old 'untested' nonsense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenni Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I guess I prefer if it isn't cleaned, that is usually done properly after disassembly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mclaneinc Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Hi Jenni, I'm sure all of us still give the item a good clean no matter how good it looks, but I just think it's normal to try and make it look appealing, I mean, they are trying to get a HUGE lump of money for it. Obviously, each to their own, but I really think it's just decent to wipe it down, especially with the world gripped in worries about infections.

Jenni Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Perhaps I suppose, I guess I wouldn't if just mailing it off to a customer, But It is what it is, you need the parts, just write the check...Sometimes your just lucky to even get them at all.

Jenni Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 But then again...I only have arcade machines, not consoles, some of my stuff hasn't even seen the light of day in over four decades. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beeblebrox Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 (edited) This collection of 117 x 5 1/4" floppies has been on for a while for a stagering £400 and recently reduced to £345! I've got about 10 x times as much as this in terms of 5 1/4" Atari floppies - does this mean I could be rich?!?! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/125325378226 At least they are all tested and working Edited November 28, 2022 by Beeblebrox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mclaneinc Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Tempted to offer 20.00, just to annoy I sold my XEGS to CEX's short lived Retro shop, just off Tottenham court Road. The guy had no clue about the gear and offered me 120.00 for it, I bit his hand off for it back then (we are talking 20 odd years ago plus). But 400.00 and it's DEAD...lol..

Going to give it some thought 😂 Counter with 50 pence. That's always good for a laugh. Ebay is amusing, but craigslist is where the real action is, in the states at least. Crackheads trying to sell trash they found on the side of the road for hundreds or thousands of dollars never gets old. There's a few of them in the F/S section right here.

deffroe Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 This seller with the XEGS seems to be the ultimate ebay bargin stop. You can buy a Gameboy in awful condition(that's the description) for £50 and a couple of 800XL's for £250 a pop. https://www.ebay.co.uk/str/2ndhandandbranded?_trksid=p2047675.m3561.l2563 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
