SpendTooMuchOnAtari

I know, I can't really complain too much but if I included a pamphlet with my auctions that had a dead rose on it and up above it said, "You're Confused" and then went on and on inside about how religion is a joke, I bet I would get quite a few emails.

Ok, I know I just posted something and I am just a big complainer. But, right after I opened my Amidar game, I opened the next package which was a Cosmic Swarm with the instructions....some of you saw that I won this. Anwyay, the package was sent First Class which is fine but they did not protect the instructions well at all. Major curling of all the corners and some bends due to the fact it had no cardboard or anything. And, while the cart label isn't that bad, it certainly does not look as nice in person as the pic. Oh well, I just feel like complaining this morning. But, I did get a common Lynx game in the mail which was new and in excellent shape. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...gory=21177&rd=1 I just looked at the auction and the picture is no longer there...of course.

I am adding this because I want to make it clear that I have nothing against people who choose religion. That's your thing and more power to you. However, I think it is silly and just don't want it to be pushed towards me....the way I felt when I opened up my Amidar package this afternoon.

Ok, I recently bought a fairly common game for the 2600 with the instructions....but I needed it and the price was right with the S&H.... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...gory=21177&rd=1 Now, I got the game in the mail just about 10 minutes ago and it is great, the game plays perfectly, the label is good to very good as is the manual. But, I noticed another piece of paper in with my items...it has a pink rose on it and up above it says, "You're Special". I'm thinking, "what the hell is this". First off, I guess I should back up and say that I am not Mr. Satan worshipper or anything but I do not like religion at all. I think there might be something "out there" somewhere but I am not going to label it and live my life the way "it" wants me to. Religion is a scam and that is just the way it is...an invention long ago to "keep people in line". Not the point though... I do not routinely preach my views, I know I just did but that is for the behalf of my complaint. I would never think of putting an anti-religion pamphlet in with the packages I send people. Of course, I will leave positive feedback and I am happy with the game but... JESUS STUFF WITH MY EBAY PURCHASE? No sir, I don't like it.

Why can't they take care of this with all of the people that I am sure are complaining to eBay and sending all the email headers and everything. It is out of hand. I know the game and never reply to such silly emails asking for anything or having a link to input your info. But, I will say that my step-dad fell for it and they got to his credit card which was attached to his bank account....well, you can imagine the fun from there. Financially, in the end, everything was OK. But, boy what a pain in the ass and if you don't check your accounts (bank,credit,eBay) often, you could be screwed! Those people make me sick!

They were trying to sell a tupperware container claiming to hold the poopy air that supposedly they caught from Brittany's cute little behind while she was walking down the street or something like that. I was going to bid at the last minute!

Hello, I need an Audio Video cable which I believe Jaguar calls the Composite Cable. I see that there are some on ebay but have a long time to go and my system should be here soon. Anyone have an extra or any of you one of the seller's of these on eBay. Let me know, thankI do see the one for $15 BIN but that is like half of what I paid for the system, three games and all of the boxes.

Humm.. If you're going after idiot bidders, you're going to need more than 2 emails. There is also someone bidding 100 Million on a plastic container. -Bry What is eBay coming to? You would need an army to let everyone that is an idiot, know that they are an idiot. Or, something like that. But, I am mean.

The warning is up to over $20. -Bry http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2955751864&category=1467 I almost have to email the two bidders of this auction and tell them what a complete and total idiot they are. I am a mean person though but I love you all here at AA. But, really, get a life!?

I'll pay 101 dollars to get in. That would be a great case for COURT TV!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=3051282825 This won't last....not mine. NTSC I hope. I bought a BOING from Canada and it was PAL.

The system changer is made by Intellivision for the Intellivision and plays Atari games. How did they get away with that anyway?

I never did understand the "legally bound" thing. I have people not pay for auctions all the time but what can I do about it. Get their phone number from eBay, post negative feedback for them, send a silly email telling them what a jerk they are....none of these has a positive outcome so what about the legal thing?

Hey, do you guys/gals think I should try selling the Intellivision/Atari system changer thing on eBay by itself or throw it in with the system and games? You don't see many on eBay right now for the changer and I am thinking that someone might want it that already has a system. I don't know what to do. Suggestions?

I agree, BIN on the Chuck Wagon for mcgrail and ending an auction early without giving others a chance to bid are two different things.

I got an Intellivision II system with the Atari System Changer thingy and about 10 games with the boxes and everything for $10.00. He was asking $15.00 but I got him down. Pretty good deal, now I just have to test it out and throw it up on eBay.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...9&category=3537 I don't understand keeping your feedback private. Is it that personal, something to hide maybe? What's the deal here? What kind of people buy from these folk?

or priceless.... Good one!

Don't take it the wrong way but I just love the CPUWIZ! youpaymybills is happily married, children, house, cat named bobby.

Whoops..... I guess I am a trouble maker. I want it though!!! Just, 13 bucks for cart only Zellers....can't do it. I got my others fairly inexpensive just had to be patient. You saw some of them CPU, in my pic.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...0&category=3528 I just love the artwork but can't seem to hit the BIN with the 4.00 S&H. Too much, right?

Also guilty....gotta love variations. Instructions are great but I go either way with boxes.

That is my daughter's birthday...seriously. You better set aside two.

That is one of the silliest guidelines that I have seen in awhile on eBay. Weird!

What an ass! I can't believe they are trying to pass it off as NTSC when they clearly know it is PAL as we can all see from the last listing. I don't want to seem like a jerk but that pisses me off! Don't shop here! http://cgi6.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?View...&sort=3&rows=50
