Have 1/2 million to spare (and no brain)?

SavannahLion:
There's a thread over at AtariAge that essentially states he has no immediate plans to sell. I didn't read past the 2nd page having lost interest.

Actually, if you read through his thread on the Atari forums, he has no plans at all to sell the game.  He put the INSANELY high bid amount on there in case some retard actually decided like throwing that much money away, but he has admitted to not wanting to sell the game.  By accepting these "offers", he is able to get an idea of how much money he could get for the game if he absolutely had to sell it.  It's a way to find its sale value without actually selling it.  Of course, if someone comes by and gives him an offer he can't refuse, he'll sell it.

Doesn't Ebay get a percentage of the posting price?  Ebay must have a maximum percentage it can take I guess .....

mountain:
Sort of, it is scaled based on the starting bid. It tops out after a certain amount though.

LOL.  You would think for a half a mill he would make a decent ad.  That  "tHANK yOU" at the end is classic.
