You will sell me the card for $100.00

This is not negotiable.  You will sell me the card or I will destroy the $100.00 and then you will never ever get it.

You have 15 minutes to comply.


Brilliant

Does anyone remember the guy who ransomed that rabbit online and said he`d eat it if he didn`t get some amount of money.  I can`t remember what happened now but it was funny.

Great tactic!

Buy and then leave negative feedback?  Hmmm.


Thats Doomy.

Oh, now that is amazing! It's tempting to hit the "ask the seller a question" and make that ultimatum, but I suspect the irony would be lost on him...

...Of course, we all know that (a) it's probably Doomy and (b) the board will never get smashed, it'll go away and come back again later when he feels like trying again... ASSUMING THE BOARD EVEN EXISTS.

These people seem to believe that this will somehow improve their ability to sell things, as the guy who said above, it's almost like a ransom "Pay $$$ or the CPU card gets it!" The fact is that the Amiga community is sick and tired of being treated like fools and we won't fall for that sort of crap.[/QUOTE]


He will have to smash it because he can't uses a gun like in the pic,  remember his stuff is "Mil-spec".  
I find it amusing that 'someone' from the mil-spec center of the universe would join the forum just to defend this thread about him(self).

Anyone can do whatever.... What  I do is avoid anyone who wants to Do me or you.  First, I don't give money to people who think I'm desperate enough to take their crap and second, I won't bother even looking at the stuff that new sellers from Oregon post unless I know them.

Hi, I am interested in the Amiga hardware.

I will offer only $50 on this processor board, If you do not sell at this price, this hard to get monetary denomination (In this economic downturn) will be destroyed.

This is just disgusting behaviour imo. I hope people boycott this guy from now on even though this idiot threatens to destroy it.

Some people are just truly rotten...

I know, but I feel $100 is too generous for him, it had to be rewritten for a $50.

I sent the seller this message:

Doomy,

Please do not destroy Amiga gear if it does not sell.  That is not cool. You know that they are rare and hard to find and not produced anymore, so why do such a foolish thing?  I will take it off your hands if need be.
