dont know if anyone of you noticed, I won an auction last night that ended for $831. You won't believe what it came with. Off the top of my head, there were 2 complete Apple Lisa computers, Apple powerbook G3's, a G4 computer, tons of classic apples (Apple Classic, Apple classic SE, II SI, CE, CS, list goes on), an apple 17inch LCD monitor (VGA works on my computer ) a treo cell phone, can be used all over the world, 2A GHz P4 400MHZ FSB, two 2200+ amd athlons, 2 commodre 64's, one brand new in the box, and a lot of other stuff. Sorry I'm just too excited, gonna dig through the pile right now.  Will post pictures of anything if anyone is interested. Don't hesitate to ask!! |

the person who sold that to you for $800 is either insane or stupid...
or, just realllllly terrible at listing auctions, and no one noticed theirs. |

LoL there's a huge story to go with it 
A bunch of people asked him to end it early, and one guy even offered him $3000 with shipping included. He declined because his greed overcame him  I suprisingly ended up as the high bidder for a very cheap cost.
He's such an a**wipe, that he wanted to charge me $750 in HANDLING FEE'S, since I took a 3 hour drive with my truck, and me and my friends did all the work ourselves and they didn't touch anything. We pretended that we worked for a bigger boss, and the boss only gave us the money we owe (auction price, $831), and if he wanted to argue about it, argue with the boss because it's our job on the line. He WANTED to kick us out, and wanted to create a fight so he can throw the money in our face to leave. He was at a huge loss. Then he started saying crap like, "I never want to see your faces here again". He was so angry, that when we wrapped the lisa's in blankets instead of putting them in a huge scaled box, he thought we were stealing something and he yelled out "I'm calling the cops!". Boy what an idiot. He even threatened to sell it to someone else.
what a douche bag. But in the end, we made out with the gold  |
