x3 first thing I thought of when I started to read this.

This was so exciting, man I was swetting as the epicness closed in towards climax, which ended in a disapointment, but still.
Whatever happened, the seller is probably a bit more rich and a bit happier at the time I suppose, if so that's good no matter what big-money-dude that bought the lot. And I also want to say to Mike that what you wanted to help the guy with sparks of loyalty and a clear and friendly gamer's spirit, also I give you respect for that. Good job. Will life ever go on?...

very disappointing 

And that's why you DON'T tell people how much their stuff is worth, ESPECIALLY on Craigslist. 

I've been disappointed so many times on craigslist that you eventually learn to just NEVER get excited about a listing or a response until you have the items in your possession. You don't know the people you're dealing with and there are tons of bullshitters/flakes/liars out that seem to bask in your disappointment. I'm sorry that happended though dude

master system pleaseeeee

lol, you're late to the party.  Read up a little for the bad news.
