Doc4 Posted March 13, 2002 Share Posted March 13, 2002 What kind of direspectful son of a! That has to be the dumbest thing I have ever seen. I might bid on it just to destroy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted March 13, 2002 Share Posted March 13, 2002 Well so far 82 have looked at it...But no bids. It almost is stupid enough to be one of those joke auctions. I hope no one bids on it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted March 13, 2002 Share Posted March 13, 2002 No, I don't think it's one of those joke auctions. If you look at the seller's other auctions, you'll see that he/she has a ton of other bizarre pins up for auction. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella'sGhost Posted March 13, 2002 Share Posted March 13, 2002 Is that supposed to be funny because it doesn't even make sense, I mean if it was a palindrome it would make some sense but Atari backwards is iratA... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATARIPITBULL Posted March 13, 2002 Share Posted March 13, 2002 There was a wizard of wor pin for sale on ebay on the 12th of march. I had never seen one before and it said that if you reach a high score (I don't remember how high)then all you had to take a picture of the screen and send it in to CBS like you would for a Activision patch. I tried to win it by biding up to $45.00 but it ended up selling for about $74.00. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc4 Posted March 13, 2002 Share Posted March 13, 2002 Yes, this pin seems to be a homemade or something. It's pretty lame, I bet I could make a better pin than that. At least, I hope, it would be funny. This is just lame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian M Posted March 13, 2002 Share Posted March 13, 2002 It is kind of funny, though! It made me laugh a little! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weaselbrains Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 I agree - this pin is stupid and I can't believe someone actually took the time to conceive it and then make it. On the subject of stupid pins, I was at an auction a few years ago (a guy who had a HUGE science fiction collection died and I think he didn't have a will so the government was selling all his science fiction stuff - it took 2 whole days and filled a big warehouse). Anyway, so I was at this auction and people were bidding ridiculous amounts of money on everything so I couldn't win anything (like a real-life version of eBay) - so when the auctioneer says "the next lot is 1 ET badge/pin" I thought 'damn it, I'm not going home empty handed, I'm going to win this' and I won it for like $2.00. The problem was when I looked at it closely it actually said "ET - the extra testicle". I hope someone doesn't have a similarly painful experience with this 'Atari' badge.
