Bad move. If a chick suggests you sell something you love for her, get the fuck out of there.

..."I want an expensive wedding. Sell your shit."
"Uh, no, sorry, either you, me, and the Nintendo are going to a Justice of the Peace, or you can find someone else to marry."
I can perfectly understand selling off a collection because you need the money, or want to clear some space, but honestly, I think big weddings are one of the biggest wastes of money out there.

A. It's a typical sob story to try and grasp at the hearts of bidders.
B. This collection isn't worth even close to half of what he is asking.
Sure it's convenient to get them all at once but $7000 for that conveniece is a little ridiculous.
He's charging $19 a game once you take out the system and accessories. That free NES gift better be a sealed copy of Stadium Events otherwise this lot is pure shit.

What a sorry collection. Nothing in there that's special at all. I'd put that collection at about $1500 tops.

Yeah... $10,000 dollars is pretty lol for that.
My NES collection has more games, more systems and more accessories.... and I've payed dramatically less. So dramatically less, in fact, I bet I've payed less then $10,000 for the rest of my 30 odd systems and hundreds of more games added on.

I think Douche is right. I'm sure the guy is trying to play the sympathy card by saying he's getting married, so that some dumbass might actually feel bad and actually pay that.
I remember when someone tried to sell something cheap a long time ago on Ebay in order for her "daughter" to get medical treatment. I don't remember how they blew the whistle on that one.

Also, a $10,000 wedding? Yeesh.

If his story is true, that sucks, I agree with Usa that extravagant weddings are a huge waste of money, the money would be better placed in an awesome honey moon.

$10,000 for a wedding is cheap. I want fireworks and rock superstars Asia at my wedding. Also, I want to fight and defeat a terrorist plot at the ceremony with the help of Best Man Kiefer Sutherland (as Jack Bauer).
Also, the Weddding March will be replaced with the Bubble Bobble theme.

zing!!!
From a guy planning a wedding at the moment 10K isn't that far fetched. Sure you can go cheap but when you have over 250 guests you eliminate having a reception somewhere small, and open bars are not cheap. People will gift money and if they live in PA they will have a stag to raise money. Stags are awesome by the way.
Collection again is lacking rare games and smells of 2nd hand store $.99 bins.

The only tragedy is that it gets eaten.
Then it eats you.

 NOOOO NOOO NOOO NOOO NOOO
Nightmares. Thanks.
At any rate, if I ever get married, I'll have the wedding in a forest. That way, it's nice bright colors, and it's free. Fuck $10,000.

I thought getting married on the beach would be free. Nope. Had to buy a permit from the City.
