hgcsales on ebay.....
« on: November 19, 2007, 02:22:39 AM »
I hate to even post this, but I thought I would warn the local folks here that this is the new alias of "you know who"

It looks all clean at first until you read the auction questions.... :crazy:

example auction

Half the things in the picture aren't even included in the auction. And, he's a big jerk to the question askers.

$99.95 starting bid! I got my 1040 STe for 5 euro from a recycling center. Have to admit that the case wasn't in such a presteen shape as he claims it to be.

Yeah. But God knows how dirty his hands were after he finished using this computer....

I see Doomy has an ad on Craig's list too for the same 4000 that is on Ebay.

His hands?  Just think about how dirty those poor serial ports were when he was done with them.  Like Doomy said in his video.  He's always had a strange facination with computers that he just can't explain.  

Saves money I suppose. To possibly coin a phrase, "The Computer IS the porn."  Ewwww.....   :knuddel:

Did anyone elses heart miss a beat when they read the hgcsales bit? I instantly thought of the Haynie Garage clearout sale he did about four years ago. Argh :)

Indeed, what an extremely rude response to a completely reasonable question.

He also doesn't specify the items not included despite taking a picture of everything thus giving the potential of confusion.

No wonder he gets the respect he does around here. :)

3 posts in 5 mins, why?

Anyway, I like it when he offers part exchange. Not forgetting the things hes asking for next to no Amigan would even think of having (halo figures?!). The best by far is he would swap it for a rareish, like new A3000 and still insists an extra $300 on top of that!!! :crazy:

Dream on Doomy.

P.s. Why does he knock $300 off for a Halo 3 game?! For starters it is worth nowhere near that even that legendary pack. This guy is truly insane.
