I don't think I'd spent $10 on an auction ran by someone as educationally subnormal as that chap clearly is. "Hi, give me a quarter of a million, I say lol".

No worry, I don't think he is a member here. Otherwise you will see his quarter million auction in the trade forum here first. ;)

well, if he makes the sale maybe he'll do something sensible with the money, like buy a house.

Yeah, right...

Would I still have to pay that $6000 deposit if I only offer $10?

No low balling!
- and whatever in the apartment that you think that collectible.
Dibs on the doors, the toilet, the bathroom vanity and the curtain rods.

I shouldn't have looked at that article. Now my toys want an apartment.
This is my signature. My wasted space. My little corner. You can't have it. It's mine. I can write whatever I want. And I have!

Okay, if you call the guy above crazy, at least he is reasonable and has stuffs that are truly valuable. Because the guy below is just a completely pure idiot.

" Just sit back, let the years pass and watch the value go UP UP UP!!"

What a sales pitch.

Well it's blatantly why he bought it all in the first place, why not assume that whoever he sells it to would have the same motivation?

I mean we all know that the idea of some crazy fool who buys a toy, opens it, discards the packaging and then plays with it is a myth. Just like the female orgasm and West Brom supporters.

It is...silly, he would sooner sell them off individually rather then as a whole since no one is mad enough to pay a quarter million for a collection.

I knew this reminded me of something from the dim and distant past, and it finally clicked:

To this day I don't know if he managed to sell them for that much. Or if he did have brain rot with that lump on his head and has since died horribly.

Wasn't there some woman selling her dead husband's collection for silly money as well?

Yeah but she didn't even try and pretend the collection was worth silly money-she wanted someone to give her a million based on a sob story. Biatch.
As I recall, it only got interesting when some kid actually bid the million; on his dad's card.
I like bears.
