Is this guy serious? http://longisland.craigslist.org/clt/785288774.html

I sent him an email and his response was....

"dude that isn't overpriced the regular price of the phone is $300 and im giving more stuff with it. Your just cheap and have no money"

I asked what the hell he was talking about and his response was......

"O my bad i wuz selling my sidekick 3 too so, and i dont wanna sell the super nintendo for $50 because it comes with a lot of stuff and its in perfect condition"

So then I asked what the lowest he could go was and he said......

"the lowest ill do is $75"

Is this guy serious? I mean sure it's in good condition but what the hell. I'm not asking if this is a good deal or not I'm just here to share with you this guy's stupidity so don't say this is in the wrong section.

This looks like an armed robbery scam to me, especially with the sudden drop in price.

People try to sell playstations for ten times that amount... There are no stupid sellers, only stupid buyers.

Exactly. 5 games on two cassettes. Thats a cassettes-to-game ratio of 2.5! He IS giving you a deal. Cassettes are cutting edge technology.

I'd agree. I mean, only gullible nerds would carry that cash, especially if the directions take them to a ghetto neighborhood.
