Default What an Idiot

Scenario: A person goes on to Ebay and sees what he thinks is an amazing deal. He thinks its 10 fully playable PS2 games for 100 dollars. In releality the description clearly states 10 demo games that are playable (work).

Well it really happened, and he bought it for $100.50:

Link to the act of stupidity

More-over he goes to GameFAQs, the site he regularly post at, and brags to the people about his amazing find:

GameFAQs topic of stupidity

Thought I should add some conversation....

Hmm. Quite embarrassing. Next time he bids off of Ebay, he should carefully read the description.

Indeed it is funny. Especially when he posted it on the forum...I probably would have cared otherwise...

He likely wont even pay for it now...

Well, if he's dumb enough to bid $100 on something without looking at hte description, I think he deserves to be made fun of.

The funniest part is that there were four bidders on this. The
lowest of which was 80.00. I guess the fellow who retracted
must have wised up.
