Im not just bidding on the receipt or a picture, right? ;)

[Koodauw]

wow, $40 for Fedex ground. Your really lookin to hit someone when they're down aren't ya. Can MR members a get a reasonable shipping rate?

[tekmoe]

$40 ground shipping isn't so bad compared to the majority that are charging $50. ;)

yes, i will ship for $25 ground to any MR member if they win the auction.

it sucks that there are people out there who actually try to pull scams like this and sometimes even get away with it.

sickening... :(

BUT, as i say in the auction, BID WITH CONFIDENCE! :)

i get the feeling that you have possibly been burned in the past or might know someone who has been burned.

i want to tell you to stop crapping in my thread but i actually have some pity for you.

hmph.

[TheMonarch]

I don't think he was trying to sound like a jerk, its just that you didn't answer the question...


People really do this these days, he was just trying to clarify... Nothing to take offense about.

[Zman5225]

i'll try to win it :)

Yeah just trying to make it clear to myself and to others.

And I think I helped your auction get up pretty quick with my 200 max bid haha.

what do you want me to do? open it and take a picture of what's inside of it? oh wait, that will make the condition 'USED' and it will no longer be FACTORY SEALED. durrrrrrr :rolleyes:

........

come on people. it's factory sealed, brand new, never been opened. i know there are scammers out there but jeez, c'mon. i'm not some 0 feedback seller who registered yesterday.

give me a break.

[reberto]

people, give the guy a break. He is trying to sell his Xbox 360 and you all say he's trying to scam. stop being so hostile everyone.

[iJon]

That box probably costs no more than $10 to ship but hey, I would do it too.

[jeremy.king]

I bid with confidence...Enjoy the bump as I expect to be outbid.

[Kobushi]

jacking up the shipping price is a good way to get some of your $$ back after ebay/paypal take their cuts. I'm guilty of it, too....At least you know in advance. It'd be different if you found out after the purchase. (Caveat Emptor or at least that's my best guess at spelling things in Latin)

And thats why most people avoid those auctions

[0s and 1s]

$10 to ship????? Where do you go? I'd like to group ship something that weighs close to 18 lbs. (which was its weight when i shipped a 360 last week) for that price!!

:rolleyes:

[tekmoe]

the shipping quotes actually go up slightly near the holidays due to the fact that there are so many people sending packages all around the world.

[wnameth]

well you alerady got more then you paid for it:) good luck!

[Zman5225]

nooo i've been outbid! Bump for you, happy holidays!

Anyone else find it EXTREMELY hysterical that the receipt says "$440" however people are willing to pay FAR more than that? I mean wow seriously. Strikes me as a "You F**king moron" moment.

Good luck selling this! Auction is about to end!

[iGary]

$625.00???

:confused:

[gwuMACaddict]

wow... nuts...

[jeremy.king]

wow... nuts...

Not to mention a ZERO feedback buyer.

I actually thought it would go for much more. It strikes me more as supply vs. demand.

Have you tried getting one in a store?

[Kobushi]

And thats why most people avoid those auctions

True, you have to sensible about it. I've seen rediculously low priced Buy It Now items with equally rediculously priced shipping. Going out with the intention of bilking the public is bad. But making one extra dollar per sale can go a long way if you're a high volume seller.

What I do find Hysterical is the people bidding on this! These people you could call f**king morons.

the guy who won the auction emailed me shortly after the auction had ended. i gave him my phone number and he called me. very nice guy. at first, he was going to pay for the 2-day shipping for $75 but then he had an idea that he could get a co-worker who works here in dallas to bring the cash in hand to pick it up. NICE!

he called me back to confirm and a guy by the name of Juan is going to meet me at my work tomorrow to exchange the cash for the 360.

gotta love it!
