Disney Triple Pack 3	Velocity x 3	Lilo and Stitch Press Kit

And thats me done for now as far as updates go. Thankfully I have nearly cleared my back log with only one or two more things to get done. Of course then the hunt starts again.

And talking about hunts, there is a big game hunt going on isn’t there. Well thanks to the big fat jolly red man (no not AtariBuff) we can finally tick 3 more off the list.

Yes yes you are seeing that right, both Castlevania Limited edition and Star Ocean, and add to that the Bust a Move double pack. What a nice man Santa Claus is. Well actually the Star Ocean was from Lady Defcon, and I bought her the Castlevania

Still shall we re-count the list then?

1. Grand Theft Auto: Double Feature
2. Rayman Junior: Anfaenger

Thats right. 2 to get and infact AtariBuff has already promised me a copy of Rayman Junior so that brings the grand total needed to 1. That being that damn Grand Theft Auto double feature.

Now the serious hunt begins.

Well I hope you are beginning to feel better from your over eating and drinking. Hopefully these updates have made it a little more tolerable.

Have fun and lets see what New Year brings.

Well lets see now. As you know, well at least the frequent visitors to the site here know, I do get a bee in my bonnet about eBay and its buyers/sellers now and again. I really hate to see when sellers do not get the money they deserve for their rarish items because people contact them on the side and get them to take whatever game out of a bundle and sell it to them cheap (only for those people to relist it straight away and get the profit.

And it drives me crazy when people ask for insane amounts of postage for small tiny items that cost next to nothing to send. And grrr I do hate those power sellers that use stock photos!. And….. see I get a little irate.

However sometimes I do just have to sit back, pour myself a beer, light up a cigarette and say to myself…… OMG WHAT THE FUCK!!!

And yes dear readers I did that just now, and I WTF’d so much I had to come on here and write about it straight away. So want to know what I was WTF’ing at? Well this

If you click the above link you will find, at the time of writing, a Castlevania Symphony of the Night Limited Edition and the stupid price of ??140 with almost 2 days left to run.

Now first off, that’s batshit insane!!! The game is not that damn rare. There are at least 50 for sale all over Europe at the moment. Yes this may well be a decent example of the game, with no scratches etc but still its not worth ??140.

Now that would be enough to drive my WTF meter to full, however there was something that drive it even higher than possible and that was the little blue text underneath the current price. And that being Reserve Not Met!!

Reserve not met? OMG WTF LOLZ!!! Talk about a greedy seller. Its no wonder that this game becomes ’seemingly rare’ when people put reserves on over that amount. Seriously this is enough to put me off collecting PlayStation altogether. So i would just like to go on the record now and say.

THIS GAME IS NOT ALL THAT RARE. Yes it may well be a good game, but it is not that rare, and the extras you get for it being a ‘limited edition’ are not worth an extra ??100 on top of what the standard edition would give you, and you can get it on Xbox Live as well for a couple of quid.

You wanna know a rare game? Try finding Whizz. That’s a rare game. Or TinTin UK version, thats a rare game, or Jet Ace, thats a rare game. Castlevania Symphony of the Night, that is NOT a rare game and is not worth ??140 plus. And anyone willing to pay that amount of money (and yes I am looking at you Bidder 6) deserves to have their testicles stapled to their eyelids.

/rant off

I guess we will be discussing this in the comments so please feel free to add your flames/insults/castlevania fanboyism towards me.
