Nintendo Wii.

This has got to be the funniest auction I've ever seen for a Wii game. A father finds his son smoking pot, and put a hard to find game he bought for his son on Ebay as punishment. Worth a read if you have time.

That is awesome... I love it when people do crazy crap like that on eBay... and looks like he's making a tidy profit from the set. I didn't read the whole thing though... it gets a bit tedious.

I guess it was bound to happen eventually.

So is that an actual console, or a kit to cover one?

 

[UTtoyfan]

Hmm, I dunno if that's a real one. Look at the remote - it has 'x' and 'y' on it and not '1' and '2' like the Wii remotes do. Of course it could be a prototype.

I LOVE SCALPING! It gives me extra money for free!

Yeah, it's not my falt the Moms and Pops wont get there lazy ***** out of bed to go wait 3 or 4 hours in line for a damn Wii,I did it twice and the second one that I put on Ebay damn near payed for the one I bought my son.

Going to pick up some more wii's in the morning.

 

[bagelsncheesey]

it's a fake. bad photoshop job actually. for starters, that darth image has been used in so many online places that nintendo wouldn't re-use it. they would just make a new graphic for the side. second, as pointed out above, the x and y buttons give it away, as well as the texture of the image. just, not right. cool concept though

 

[galactiboy]

Yeah, having the box glow red instead of blue would be a fun touch... but even if it were legit not something I'd spend the extra cash on.

Dude WTF? Are you really that big of ahole they you are going to flaunt over and over that your buying multipule Wii's so you can seel they on ebay? If that what you want to do thats great I understand people want to make money, but to constantly flaunt the fact that you are doing this is full on Ahole move, but then again I am not shocked.

Are you not getting a Wii for christmas?
I really dont care that people don't like flippers and your right what I do on Ebay is my buisness.I don't see it as a full on ahole move.The only ones that feel that way are the ones that are not getting a Wii and the ones not making the money.

I thought I'd get some feedback but not this "hey dude you an Ahole" sh$t.
I really would'nt give a crap if you were doing the same.I have other things to worry about,like when is my next Wii auction going to end.

I got a Wii and I can buy a Wii every shipment my store gets for selling if I wanted, but I still dont like scalpers. Which is why I like working morning shifts so I can grab the few goodies that I still buy and hide some of the rare things for the first hour or so, and then bring them down once those guys are gone. Not all the time though, just some of the time.

 

[galactiboy]

I assume he was just posting that to get a rise out of people, I really don't care to feed the ego so I'll ignore it. Probably best to do the same.

I don't rip on flipping too much. We all could use the extra cash, but when stuff like this going on: https://kotaku.com/gaming/from-the-...hing-wish-for-a-wii-in-amarillo-tx-334407.php I wouldn't be able to flip a Wii.

Thankfully, it sounds like the community pulled together and found this woman a Wii, some extra controllers, and some games. https://kotaku.com/gaming/from-the-road/update-a-touching-wish-for-wii-in-amarillo-tx-334496.php

Read what he wrote again please before you make stupid comments. He never once called you an a-hole for flipping. He called you one for FLAUNTING that you're getting several at a time to flip them when others can't even get one to use.

No one cares if you're flipping them for profit. I'd do it too if I could find them, but he felt like you were rubbing it in peoples faces that while they can't find one, you're getting several.

It's not the flipping. It's the "HAHAHAHA, I got several and you can't get one" attitude that he had the problem with.

If you paid attention! You'd know that I did'nt right that until after he called me an ahole-flipper.I was just stating in the first post's that I got some more wiis to flip but the prices were falling on Ebay.I would have thought the conversation would have been on the price drop or something more interesting,than "Ahh man why are you flipping Wiis,that aint right".I mean c'mon you guys get your panties wet for the littlest things.

 

[KitFisto]

I paid attention. He called you an a-hole for FLAUNTING being able to get multiple units to sell while other people can't get one. Not for being a flipper in general.

It's one thing to be a flipper ( we have all done it ), but it's another to brag about being able to get multiple units of a hot item you know people want while other people have no luck getting one.

You make comments about people being "too lazy to get out of bed". Well, I am glad you know what other people have done or tried. You have been lucky. Good for you. Others have not been so lucky so they get irritated to see someone like you flaunting your exploits. It's not that hard to understand.

I have had one and my nephews got theirs so that not the issue. I called you an ahole because your coming and flaunting it. If it had been the first time I would have said ok he got one and sold it , most of us would, but now your just rubbing it in. I could care less if you get 100 to flip just dont come in here ever time you get one and be an ahole and say I sold another one. And I belive people have already said don't come flaunt that you are selling Wiis on ebay. And to your comment about that you thought people would comment on the price drop if you wanted to talk about the price drop you could have just said have you noticed the Wiis are really coming down on ebay?

Not to quote myself, but I think it bears repeating.
