I did win it, should be arriving to me tomorrow Person wouldn't ship until my payment hit their BANK account. Finally went out, lol.

REALLY happy to finally get this one off the list. Been the last one I have needed for a while now. Not the mintiest copy by any means, but with SE, you take what you can get.

I actually also won the fake one that was up on ebay. I never really thought it was real (referring to the glossy one), but I knew the payment would be on hold for 21 days with the guy. If it was legit (I thought about a 1 percent chance, lol), then hey, I win. If not, then I get my money back. Really wasn't much risk in it.

After I won the glossy one, I knew instantly the guy was a scammer. Tried to claim all the pictures were his own (lol) and they were all printed on glossy paper etc. Also wouldn't even SHIP me anything until I left positive feedback or waited 21 days.

Obviously disputed the payment, was promptly refunded.

This copy from New Jersey, though, appears to be legit. REALLY happy to get it off the list. Will update when it arrives (I leave for NYC in the next couple days, but it was sent overnight mail so it should arrive before I leave)

3rd picture is not the same copy as the first.  Pretty sure it's a scam.

"It's always amazing to me how some of the most worthless games from a gaming perspective tend to fetch outrageous amounts of money. But then again, it could be said that something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. I'm curious if the high bidder of the $873.04 Stadium Events (cart-only) realizes that it's nowhere nearly as rare as about 20+ games I can think of that sell for 1/10th that amount?  At any rate, I wanted to draw attention to this trend: if people say it's rare, it must be true, and therefore it must be had at any price."

Dude, that is so terribly terribly photoshopped, it's not even funny. Well it is kind of funny I guess.
