If the supposed winner doesn't reply, I'd suggest there should be another auction for this item. If I understood well, there was somebody willing to offer $5000 before this guy showed up and promised to share it, and more people would have added their cash to the group fund, etc etc.

And I wouldn't like to think the ratman deal was just made up by somebody else who wanted the Sonic fans to stop bidding for it. If he's not real, this would harm both those who wanted it released and the seller, since he's going to make less money from it. =\

I don't know where you got this $5,000 figure from, but it's the first I've heard of it. Highest bid I had was from ratman at $3,000, second highest was from the anonymous collector at $2,500.

well it is one of the rarest things in the world. The guy who created most of this game almost died making it so i think it is worth it.

comment from Ratman, quoted verbatim:

"You all have been fucked by The Great Red Rat! I was hired by the "Anonymous Collector" to make sure his bid was uncontested and outdone, and TheRedEye knew this. Have an unpleasant day shitheads!! HAHAHAHA! smile.gif"

Of course, that means that the seller potentially got screwed out of $2500 more.

Here, last page of the thread.

Also, another quote, same thread:

"The whole bidding was internal and never ment for anyone else to bid on/own. TheRedEye and the "Collector" only publically gave this information out only to make you wet your fucking pants.

Either way you would never of seen X-Treme in the light of day. You may blame TheRedEye (The middleman) and hl7_18 (The Collector).

Furthermore the two AIM names I provided were not so fake.

Mad Moxxy = The Ex-Sega Employee (Seller)
MetaPhysicalMind = The "Anonymous Collector"

Yet another quote, same thread:

"The item was never ment for the Sonic Community to have. ONLY THE COLLECTOR."

I do find it hard to believe that people here were also intended to be fucked over. And that the seller would give up a potential $2500 extra just to fuck people over.

Well i think jsut about everyone mentioned there is a member here and its nice to know if this is true what some of the respected (if that?) members of the community will do...

Also this $5000 bid is just a rumour isnt it.
