Thats right, people are bidding 20 million for a game which is going to come out very soon. What's even more moronic of the bidders is that they'll receive the game approximately 4 hours b4 the game begins selling, meaning they got the game 4 hours in advance for only 20 million

I have lost all faith in mankind...

Uh kinda can get it a tad cheaper then that..
i can understand getting a game that was discontinued but this is rediculous

 

[Beer $lut]

Probably some real big fan people, who want to feel special because they got the game early.

Doom 3 hasn't been discontinued. Infact it will be in stores tuesday. Which I will be buying.

I doubt the person will pay the $20 million. I am just going to assume they'll take the bad feedback and not be a complete idiot.

 

[amrtin77]

who the **** has 20million dollars?

and look at the bid history.. what dumbasses outbidded themselves by hundreds of thousands? that has to be a ****ing fake auction.. the people probably know eachother in real life.

lmfao thats a demo copy they are selling it at best buy,includes a action figure,demo of game and stragety guide... omg lol (the best buy tag gives it away)

 

[NeverGoingBack]

uh demos typically dont sell for $55, and come with a strategy guide.

who needs a strategy guide for what is like an hour of gameplay?

 

[Khull]

Unless its a bunch of high-end CEO's of major companies...few can cough up that much...

I figure I'll wait a week or 2 untill the rush dies down to buy it.

 

[raDixGhost]

its prolly a scam of some sort.

waiting for some rich dumbass to spend money on it.

 

[ReiGn]

who the **** will spend 20mil on a game anyway?

You dont want the answer to that...honestly.

BOT: I dont see why it would be a scam. I just hope that person really enjoys it for 20 mil.

 

[Jimbo]

well,the demo at best buy sold for 19.99 but well yeah,but the demo came with strategy guide,oh well his loss

[aphextwin]

thats the most retarded thing ive seen ever.................

 

[james_in_time]

hey it isnt that bad just 84,000$ a month LMAO

 

[TweaK]

I laugh at you because by the looks of your post you assumed the bidder would actually pay for it.

 

[Zz.cOoL.zZ]

dude that is fake as hell no one would spend that much you could go to the damn company itself and buy it for less and dont go what if he didnt live there if he had 20 mil HE COULD FLY THERE! aint gonna believe it thats just probably as someone said up there is some people just screwing with people thats a load of bulls***

 

[Dragnskull]

do you really think ppl will pay 20mil? think about it, some fanboy thinks "o...i cant afford that price...if i cant have it no one can" *bids a rediculous number so no one can beat him, then will decline after the bid is over so the guy has to re-open an auction, which defeats the purpose of "getting the item before its released"


see my point?

 

[james_in_time]

its called buyer fraud or seller fraud protection which means if he doesnt pay the guy can sue him
