crunchysuperman Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 :bleh: That thing looks like it's been laying somebody's backyard all this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mindfield Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 (edited) Saw that one. No end label and the main label looked like it had been baking in the sun for the last decade. My label is kinda crap but it's a sight better than that one. Edited July 27, 2005 by Mindfield Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari-Jess Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 I still dont know why I don't have a red label gravitar (I have a very nice silver one) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetset Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 I saw that too. I added it to my watchlist before I checked it out (was in a hurry). Went back the next day, saw the shipping charge, and took it from my watchlist. I always thought priority was $3.85. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zwackery Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 (edited) I picked up one for $17 mixed in with 3 other carts, turned around and sold those carts for about $12. The label was in really great shape, except for a small bit of blue ballpoint pen, which came off without any trouble. I think this is a rarity case where the box & docs make a BIG difference in $$$$. Edited July 27, 2005 by Zwackery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yuppicide Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Did that come from the Atari Landfill?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickHarrisMaine Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Interesting, how is it something in Mexico can even USE priority mail at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mindfield Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Interesting, how is it something in Mexico can even USE priority mail at all? 900176[/snapback] Maybe he does a border dash to the nearest USPS post office, nervously posts his stuff, then dashes back to the safety of his hacienda before border patrol runs him down.

jetset Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Interesting, how is it something in Mexico can even USE priority mail at all? 900176[/snapback] It is likely he is not really in Mexico. There are sellers on Ebay who put thier location as a foreign country so as to hike the shipping but are actually here in the US. A good telltale sign is when they are in a foreign country but only accept US funds. Obviously not 100% always the case, but certainly something to raise the eyebrows.

He does go to Texas often. I have dealt with him before and he was easy to deal with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
video game addict Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Yeah $6.50 priority mail shipping from Mexico doesn't sound like a bad deal to me. Probably cost him at least $2.50 for the pony ride across the border.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
