bikeguychicago Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I saw this listing while browsing 5200 games. Who in their right mind would buy this thing and, better yet, why would someone sell something that could possibly cause someone to get ill from it?

Nutsy Doodleheimer Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 What is that person thinking trying to sell this? Might as well just sell your used underwear on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CannibalCat Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I've bought from him before, great guy though, goes above and beyond. But yeah, shouldn't sell toxic mold!... sell it loose like Bohoki said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keatah Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 He just said it comes from the Arizona desert, which is typically a dry area. Seemed pretty nice about it. I bet it was "infected" at the factory, what with the unbleached cardboard, and adhesive, that PB used. Maybe that part of the box was handled too much then left to sit in the dark. Or maybe "mis-handled" at the factory, thus setting the stage for the colony to flourish..? I'd bet that if you unwrap it you could blow some of that off, forming a cloud of mold itself. Seen this stuff before when clearing out a hoarder's apartment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 It's actually prohibited by law to mail any sort of mold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keatah Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 The letter of the law says so. But a little bit like so. I don't think the postmaster general is going to fine you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andromeda Stardust Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 (edited) I've seen worse. Some dude wanted to VGA grade this... Edited August 29, 2015 by stardust4ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynxpro Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 If you consider Super Cobra to be worth $15, then buy it and remove the plastic wrap from the box outside and then discard it. From what I can see, it doesn't look like the "mold" is on the cardboard. Now, the seller brought up an interesting point. Has anyone done a binary hack on the game and made it support 2-fire buttons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I've seen worse. Some dude wanted to VGA grade this... I've seen worse get graded by VGA. You ever see the vga 10 Super Mario Bros 1? Or the part melted game that was graded? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andromeda Stardust Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I've seen worse get graded by VGA. You ever see the vga 10 Super Mario Bros 1? Or the part melted game that was graded? Yeah but in a way the moldy Dr Mario is more legit. The Super Mario Bros was deliberately defaced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Yeah but in a way the moldy Dr Mario is more legit. The Super Mario Bros was deliberately defaced. I did not know that. I know the melted one was done on purpose but I did not know the black box mario was trashed on purpose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andromeda Stardust Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I did not know that. I know the melted one was done on purpose but I did not know the black box mario was trashed on purpose. Yeah. Holes punched in the shrink wrap and penis drawn on too...
