@ Paul - Seriously, stop it, I'm in pain! ;D @ Slash - THIS is the way it's spelt - Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. Oh, and "Can to spell" - too has a double "o". Here's a word - Floccinaucinihilipilification - sort of describes this thread (no offence, Pauly ) Michael, you got any jobs open for Chief Editor? ;D pulse8

Ahh Oliver, Still such an Aussie at heart, aren't ya? Yeah I was thinking of something along the lines of "...mate", I'll keep thinking... (not too hard of course that would be of concern...) pulse8

Before reading this thread I was feeling a little down-in-the-dumps today. Thanks, boys, for making my abdominals ache with laughter! ;D ;D ;D I'm not sure about "Pulseight: 'buy Game and Watch from Australia they are better down here' "... How about "pulse8 - Come play my Game & Watch, don't hesitate" ...or something... pulse8

Not a surprise Not a surprise to me, either. In the past I have emailed Fredrik asking about his items for sale. I think he may have replied once out of about 5 times, and for some reason called me "Stephen" Understandably, I soon gave up. pulse8

To be honest I was a little disappointed with the anti-climax as well. Not that 720GBP isn't a good price ;D Now I know how much to save @pat - FYI, aborigine IS a member of this forum. pulse8

He's is a clever boy, isn't he? I think if you look at Devster's site you'll find that his is even better than this one for auction... www.devster.f2s.compulse8

Did you get a reply? Actually he probably has about 10000 emails to go through... I know I sent one on the off chance he might end it early The email never went through Actually it might go as high as 2200GBP like you said, but Devster already has one! ;D ;D ;D pulse8 Note that there are over 1300 views!

Could certainly be a new record set here... I haven't seen one of these, let alone in this condition, on eBay for, well, maybe not ever (??). My guess is around 1200-1500GBP, never know on these things though. His list of people watching it must be off the chart! pulse8

Brendan, You might be right about the mistake/mix-up with Egg, but to be honest (and it might be more likely ), I think they did this on purpose from an "artistic" point of view (artistic streaks are strong in my family). OK now I'll explain: If you can see the game shown above it (Octopus) you'll see that it is red which, like the the way they've done with the Mickey, is also wrong. Two brown games, like two red games would not look "right". My guess is that it was more aesthetically pleasing to the eye to make each game a different colour, forcing the viewer to look "properly" at each game. If there were two games of different colour, they may be seen as "common" and not so appealing to purchase. Trust me, these are some of the things that go on in marketing! Wierdos!! Sorry if I have lost anyone, but this is my view and I'm sticking to it! pulse8 Oh, and if anyone has a picture of a boxed Chef that shows any different I'd be interested to see it (I have no Chef, yet )

I use one called auctionsniper. I don't use it nearly as much as I used to. It's OK, I'm not sure actually how much advantage it gives you over catching one or 2 people off guard, but I have won a few items by using it. I'm unsure how I am charged for it, it might be linked directly to my eBay account (??). It's supposedly $1 per win. pulse8

I was recently asked to pay US$44.00 to have my boxed MCF TT shipped over from the US. In the end the package arrived with a postage cost of US$26.85. I left a neutral. pulse8

That certainly is an interesting box, Nelson! Just as interesting are the "Article numbers" with 607 000 0 follwed by the model number's number, if that makes sense! Example: Turtle Bridge (TL-28) is 607 000 028 Nice one ;D pulse8

Some fair points have been made here, but I am exhausted after reading that! pulse8
