Wonder if that dude's figured out what he's done yet?
 
Anyone figure out if this was real? I saw it yesterday about 15 minutes after it was posted but I thought it was a scam and didn't bother...

None of us who have contacted him (including $1K offer) have heard a peep in response. Probably fake but it's hard to say.
 
Got damn it... he texted again to mention that he was trolling me earlier.

So back to assuming this is fake.

EDIT: If you want I can post some pics of what I got today. :D It is not a Journey though lol.

Good, I'm glad the 1K man didn't get it. Sure, you can offer more money but
A) you undercut those who may have beat you to it and had a deal in place making you a jerk and
B) You create an auction for the seller, screwing potential buyers.

I have not and would not offer more, even if it's a title I badly wanted. But that's just my humble opinion :/

I agree with your gentleman's etiquette for the purchasing of CraigsList items. I also offered $500 about an hour in but got no response.

I'll bet now that the guy has gotten greedy and raised the price that the revenge flaggers are gonna go at him.

^^^This is why I did not mention his handle lol.

As for A and B above, if the seller is a greedy shit this will ALWAYS happen here anyways, there are like 10,000,000 people in this city. They tend to get theirs when their generous buyers turn out to be flakes or just turn up to kick tires and lowball.

If it is something you want you can either pony up a fair offer or expect to miss out. If they ask for $100 for a game that is worth $1000 and I just buy it up for $100... wouldn't that sort of make ME the jerk?

I do think it was rude of this particular guy to try to scoop the deal immediately after I told him I sent an email on it though. It speaks volumes about a person's mindset and character (definitely shows a total lack of regard to me). I guess if I had to learn to keep him at arm's length at least it happened on a deal I didn't give a shit about. :D
