    Oh, no. Every time you turn up something monumental and terrible happens.

    maybe they hope that a silly jacko fan will buy it, thinking that it is rare.

    But bear in mind that without the scratches, dents and missing pieces it would be in mint condition. That's a great way of saying that the game is used and NOT in a mint condition... :)

    Blimey! :o
    I've seen it all now...

    [Edit]

    Something very fishy going on there - look at the feedback / items history for the buyer and seller (the same person?)... In the past 4 days, the buyer has bought two ?200+ (identical) mobile phones from the seller - feedback was left on both sides straight away - the buyer seems to have received their phone within an hour of the end of the auction! Seems an expensive way of boosting your feedback rating.

    With all this sort of crap going on - it's just another reason for me to steer well clear of ebay.

    "COMPATIBLE WITH ANY TV"

    So it's an NTSC compatible +2 then?
    I think not.

    Yes, ebay's complaints department are rather swift when things like this are brought to their attention.

    I emailed him again asking him to put it down for 1 pound with a reserve of 50 quid but had no response !

    He might finally after about 78 tries at selling this item realise its worth squat

    ...having lost around ?50 in listing fees in the process. What a plank.

    This "mint but not mint" thing is just hilarious:

    "The only thing missing is the Michael Jackson poster that came free with the game. The tape has minor scratches on the lettering. It is very minor but I thought I'd mention it anyway and apart from that the tape would be in mint condition. The box is slightly dented on the front but would otherwise be in mint condition. The game was only played 2 or 3 times and the box shows no shelf wear as it has been kept in a box since it's purchase in 1989."

    It's like some kind of lost monty python sketch.
