Hey everyone.

I listed my GC on eBay, and told everyone what the reserve is (£50, if you're interested). The problem with this is that I'm getting no bids whatsoever (well, one at £20) and I fear someone is going to bid £50 right at the last minute - which I think is much too low for a GC with 8 games, a memory card and 2 controllers.

What I was wondering is if one of you would bid £100 (max bid), just to put the price up a bit. If you don't win then fine, it's gone for over £100, which is great! If you do win it, I won't expect you to pay for the item, obviously, and no actual transaction will take place. The advantage of this is a boosted feedback without actually selling/buying anything. I'm going to list it in the Friday-Ad at about £120 if you win it (so I can keep it) as things go for ridiculous prices in there. The package cost about £400 to put together, so this is still pretty cheap I think.

Anyone interested in helping me out just tell me here, and we can exchange emails to sort out item number and eBay username etc.


The alternative to this of course, is if you would sincerely like to buy my GC, is simply to bid for it.

Thanks loads,

*HE*

I think people will just bid £50 at the last moment anyway, and then it'll go for about £55 probably.

£100 isn't bad! Or you're just not a GC fan - one or the other, because it's in great condition, original box etc etc.

It's not worth £100

Still 2 days left, Jesus. No one bids seriously before the last day anyway!

Can you please tell me your eBay username, just so I know it isn't someone conveniently bidding at the same time for real!

I will tell you once I've noted it down, and then you can edit it out if you want.

Post me a link and I'll do it. I won't actually buy it, of course, just bid it up for you.
