Your username is markt and the auctions username is markmeadors, so it wouldn't be much of a stretch.

I use an AMB 3000+ processor (which works awesome).

Is that like a chinese knock-off of an AMD 3000+?

Guess it had to be so high for the guns to be pointed properly on the screen.

Yup..that's exactly why it's so high...but for a conversion it's GOT to be uncomfortable.

Personally I like my CP high, but I guess I'm taller than the average gamer. Actually, the CP seems annoyingly deep too.

I loved that game. Think it took most money from me out of all games.

It's a nice cab, but for me it won't do without the guns :)

I was playing with some friends; we paused the game and ordered papa johns pizza online with the arcade machine!!!  How cool is that!

Not very, because Papa John's sucks.  Plus, if you'd just picked up the phone, you wouldn't have had to pause the game! :)

The monitor is a huge 21”

What are we comparing that to exactly?  Mine's a relatively standard 27".  My MONITOR I mean. ;)

Couldn't this auction be removed for mentioning mame?  Or is that only if it says it'll include mame (which it doesn't state, but clearly insinuates, as well as the necessary roms.)

I'm just raggin' you by the way.  Although you really should just come out and say it's yours.  Lots of people try to pass off their own auctions/deals/etc. as "someone else's."  They're caught EVERY time, and it never goes too well after that.

Anything posted in PnR or EE is a battleground for ridicule, this would not have gotten so much bad attention in bst.

Keep that in mind next time you post something markt.  ;)

Why do you report this here then? Out of all the auctions on ebay. It's not like it's a great catch or anything.

I say the same about Idaho, Wyoming, and Kansas.  They don't really exist, they are a myth.

Chad,  I can assure you that Idaho IS here...and it's actually quite nice!

Also, I played baseball at a school in Kansas for a semester. It certainly exists, although I wish it didn't.

I thought it was kind of funny that the guy started his auction at 1.25 after talking about how great the game was.

Lol, someone sniped the auction for $416.11.

You pay less eBay insertion fees that way.

I can't prove you exist.  I was told not to believe everything I read on the innernets.

Did the USPS return your check?   ...but then again I haven't cashed it yet either (today).

No, but they could have sent it anywhere.  The only info I have on where they took it is on that innernets.

I'll vouch for Frizzle and Idaho.  We headed east this weekend and hit some other state after a few hours.  Maybe it was actually Montana, though?  Who can tell?  :D
