He says in the description he set the BIN for $599...but its only $299. Seems like you could make a killing if you want to resell everything.

The BIN comment appears to be a ploy to get someone to buy the lot quickly, without thinking of what actually comes with it. NO WAY is it worth $600. Most of the systems have no cords, so they're pretty much useless. The best part of the auction is the NES game lot, worth about $275 shipped. You could make a little on the other junk, but what a pain to sort through it all.

Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, "You're next." They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.

Yeah, that's what I thought when I saw it too. What a sneaky little trick! Not really dishonest, just tricky.

It's tempting to send him a message like "Say, I noticed you made a typo in your auction -- you put the BIN at $300 instead of $600 like you meant to! Just wanted to make sure you got want you wanted for the lot before somebody snapped it up at the wrong price!" And see which one he changes.

So, apparently it wasn't a trick after all -- he relisted an old item and forgot to change the description.

Offered the seller 175 and he countered with 215.

What do you guys think?

Be well -

If there are enough games you need in the lot, I'd say go for it, but if not, I don't think it's worth you trouble.
