Phetishboy's "Arcade Auction of the Week"

That descriptive thread title made it perfectly clear what an interested soul might find in that particular thread. Apologies. BTB, the auction is so bad it deserves multiple threads. Someone start another one.

Dude, I'm the high bidder on that thing! I'd love to have it for $1.25 and it's only 20 min. from my office. I'm sure he'll refuse to sell it when the auction ends at my $1.25 bid with the reserve not being met. I'll email him and ask if he'll sell it for $25 and I'm sure his answer will be something to the effect of, "No way- that is an original MK! My reserve was $500..."
 
Original huh.. is the bezel made from real plastic?
 
What I love is how everything on Ebay is "Rare" like Duck Hunt for PC10,

Just like when restaurants use "Best" in their name. If you have to say something is "Rare" or the "Best" and it isn't obvious, then you probably shouldn't be saying it....

One day I want to open up my own place, bar, restaurant, arcade, whatever and call it something like "Absolute Worst Place to Ever Be Suck Hole" :)
 
Don't you hate it when these vintage machines have "ware and tear" - or was that "wear and tare"? Or maybe "wash and wear" - oh I know, he meant "where's the tear" indicating potential damage to the original Atari artwork. :D
