Take a look at the feedback received/left of the person that bid on the item :wink:

That person may be an alias of somebody on the Acaeum me thinks

Games can get you through times of no money but money can not get you through times of no games!!

Isn't it funny to see the speculative posts from the newer members?
To the best of my knowledge, that account is managed by Mr. Ima Schiller, residence unknown. Hero of the RPG collecting world, defender of copyrights, and all-around nice guy. I hear he's very good-looking too, as well as smart, friendly, kind, and extremely humble. But that is only what I am told....

Now where, pray tell, did I actually engage in any speculation? Hmmmm, you must be talking about those other newer members :wink:

It's also going to literally cost him. By my math (could be off), this clown is looking at $4.80 + $1.31 + $26.81 = $32.92 in insertion and final-value fees, all of which eBay will happily collect.

Then there's the confusion of wondering why the "buyer" isn't paying â€” followed by the realization that he's been had.

Then there's the inevitable negative feedback.

Finally, there's jumping through all of eBay's hoops to try and get some money back.

I'd feel sorry for the guy if he hadn't already combined cluelessness with a foul-mouthed rant. This idiot is not off to a good start on eBay.

That -1 feedback he'll inevitably end up with will certainly make it more difficult to actually sell stuff, as people don't trust people with negative numbers on feedback profiles.

The *ahem* person in question never saw fit to reply to my email regarding this *ahem* priceless wonder. A DDG for $1000? Obviously the kid has no clue about the law of supply and demand.

He obviously has no clue about life in general. Perhaps when he graduates from UoC he will learn the truths about life.

The funniest part is "Fucknut" himself is probably getting all excited thinking about spending the $1000 in his head....making a mental list...let's see, new ipod, Britany Speares new album, Spiderman bedsheets, some whack-off porno mags(get my older brother to buy those for me), some of those kewl new 3rd edition books with those bad ass guys wearing tattoos, spikes and stubble on the cover, Yugioh cards, 20 packs of Bubble Yum, Hellboy DVD, new Grand Theft Auto game, the list goes on. What a sap.

Hey I had some of those...when I was 8. Badgered my mom into buying them. I think they had Incredible Hulk and Captain America also, but my first loyalty was to the man in the webs....

Any guesses on what's going through "Fucknut" 's mind right now?

"Hmmm ... I sent out a nice letter to the high bidder, but I haven't heard a thing. Oh, well, it's only been a day or so ..."

This poor, dumb bastard: every day that passes is going to make him more and more nervous about getting paid. Then, finally, the light bulb will go on ... :idea:

... and it will hit him: "I'm not going to be paid. Mostly because I'm a moron. And I owe eBay $32. And I now have negative feedback. I'm a very stupid person."

You know, I'm just going to sit back and watch the fireworks begin. This should be fun. :twisted:

So Fucknut is not getting the Spiderman bedsheets after all?

I don't want to mess around with our friend whitey. Fucknut got his well deserved negative feedback already!

What can I say? Auction price speaks for itself.
