Well if we're going to do this, we'd better figure out how before the auction ends. I don't mind kicking in a 10 spot for a good cause.

If we were going to chip in to buy it, I'd rather keep the box sealed to be honest. Then in 10 years, we'll resell it on Ebay for twice the price and divide the profits.

I could. That or I could just use a fixed angle and a stationary camera. That might be better.

I bet you'd become a youtube hit if you did film it, especially if you film yourself puking it up afterwards.

It ended at $192, and that still didn't hit the reserve. Yeesh.

I'm telling you, the reserve was almost certainly $200. In the description he said that a previous box had sold for $200 and implored you to Google that fact. Maybe it'll go back up without a reserve. That or he'll contact the high bidder and cut a deal.

I believe you.
Reserve prices are just a waste of fucking time. Start the damn auction at the minimum price you'll accept. Don't waste 26 people's time with a cocktease starting bid of a penny.

eBay should make this a requirement.

Agreed Usa, reserves suck ass. He should have just put it buy it now for 300 and seen if he got any offers.

You'd think they would get the hint after seeing millions of auctions tagged "NO RESERVE" over the years.

It is not worth that much. They pop up on Ebay a lot cheaper than that. It did at least three times before this. Trust me. I know for a fact.
(you aren't getting mine either, I made my donation to the food bank of Sydlexia already)

Necropost because this appeared to be the most relevant existing topic.
I created this for fun over the weekend. (Jackamo is the phony Pokemon-esque card game we created for the Press Start universe.) This one's for Syd, though he's already seen it:

I'd buy that.
You should do merchandise like this. Offer a deck of jackamo cards and shit.

Or at least put a dyslexia.com poster in one of the backgrounds or something.

I think Jackam-o's will be hearing from Fruit Loops' lawyer.

They don't have a similar name or mascot, so unlikely. I mean, they sell those 3 pound bags of generic Froot Loops at the supermarket, and that's not infringement.

Yeah, it's a good thing we didn't go with our original name for the card game, Fruitloopamo.
