Ha ha! I know EXACTLY what he's talking about!

"I remember when you would hear gossip around the schoolyard of another kid who did an impossible thing in a game. Everyone would be filled with different emotions, from jealousy to doubt to excitement. In the analogue days, we just had hearsay and really low-quality pics and videos. I think this cartridge is plays into that mystique, regardless of recent findings on Todd Rogers and his 'impossible' score."

I'm not surprised you got bidded up and not paid for, I have heard a lot of people have been doing this on these types of auctions. Sucks as a seller seeing a large ammount but sometimes the bidders are just there to troll.

Well before that auction ended, I would have bet good money that the winning bidder wouldn't pay. With that said, I'm glad you were able to work something out with another buyer and get a good story out of it.

Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

I also knew it wouldn't be paid. I could see his autograph maybe adding 20-50$ of value, but all he really is is a disgraced fake record holder.
