Default Re: Selling some games

Well FFT and SOTN sold. In fact, most of them sold. The big winner? Earthbound at $91. Well, almost.

In case any of you ever sell on eBay, hidden deep within the site (not auction) preferences is the option to block bidders who live outside the countries you ship to. Wish I would've known.

The guy who wins the EarthBound auction emails me and says "Oops, I didn't see you don't ship to my country." Shouldn't eBay throw up some huge red text when you bid on those items? So I had to cancel the auction, and give a second chance offer to the second place guy who bid $90. Only now this dude insists on asking all sorts of questions on the item he was more than willing to buy 10 minutes ago! "Do games still save? What's your return policy if the game doesn't save?" Are you serious? The game is 15 years old, if my battery is dead, so are most on the market, and if you care so much, buy the damn game and replace it. What do you want me to do about it? Open the cartridge to replace it and lose the value for real collectors?

So now I'm pissed off, and expecting it to sell for like $20 this time around. Thank you assholes of eBay.
