Arcade Books On eBay...

[NERDtendo]

I am bidding on a bunch of arcade strategy books an eBay right now. I would really appreciate it if people would not bid on them and let me get them. I am obviously not going to get into a bidding war but I really want these and if a member is here looking at them, I would like to request that you let me get them. Please?

I am n***e on the bid history so you can single me out.

Someone has decided they want these books too. I hope this isn't someone here trying to swipe them from me...I REALLY WANT THESE...please let me get them.

You do realize your original post probably translated to most on here as "Hey! Stuff you want is on Ebay right now!"

Damn. Lost out on all of them.

Come on..

That's like telling your kids you're going to have a fudgsicle out of the freezer when you get home from work.

or saying "don't look now, but there's a skanky girl walking down the street"

I know. I have learned my lesson.

Not sure what era of arcade guides you were bidding on, but the 80's ones pop up off and on quite a bit. They must of printed a million of them when arcade games were king back in the day. I still find them in thrift stores and used book sales every once in a while.

Better luck next time.

Well if it makes you feel any better, they're paying 2x what the last important one went for. $26 last week from Canada.
