3/16/2006 7:54:46 PM

3/16/2006 8:31:08 PM

this is awesome

3/16/2006 9:52:35 PM

good call on buying the card and making some free money

3/16/2006 9:56:02 PM

i bet pcmsurf is the kind of guy who uses cheap tactics to win at super smash brothers

3/16/2006 9:59:02 PM

id like to thank all my supporters for helping make this neat transaction possible

3/17/2006 10:54:25 PM

apparently, it's not sold yet. Keep the hate going.

3/23/2006 9:56:34 AM

the price is coming down.........

3/23/2006 10:04:09 AM

$1000 takes it

3/23/2006 10:18:08 AM

price doesn't have to come down. if he puts it on enough places someone will buy it for that

3/23/2006 11:13:13 AM

board the hate train

3/23/2006 11:42:18 AM

$999.99 takes it!

truth be told, if i were considering a large ($1500+) purchase, i'd probably jump on this...alas, i'm too poor

3/23/2006 12:42:28 PM

yould be better off hanging out at best buy on a saturday waiting for someone to check out high end tvs.

3/23/2006 12:48:44 PM

that would come off as so sleezy...though good idea, i suppose (though how many people who are buying a big ol tv are going to be paying for it all that day? most are probably doing the credit line or something)

3/23/2006 12:50:19 PM

When I worked there we took a $12,000 purchase in cash one time. We got out the IRS form that has to be filled out for cash purchases over $10k and he would not fill it out. He made us ring up the sale on two different receipts.

3/23/2006 1:18:03 PM

drug money

3/23/2006 3:39:01 PM

^^and you did it?

kinda defeats the purpose...

3/23/2006 3:40:14 PM

yeah the guy who was going to buy it for $1350 called me a few times and we set up a time to meet then he called me about an hour before hand and cancelled

3/23/2006 5:16:37 PM

that sucks. I'm sure if theres a sale going one, someone would grab it.

3/23/2006 6:42:01 PM

A question for TWWers that know how these things work. Is there any way a person could get screwed with this?

For example, if I bought it at the store after verifying the balance and held it for a couple of weeks is it possible that the original owner could place an order from the bestbuy website without actually having the card in hand?

3/23/2006 6:48:25 PM

if youre really worried about it i guess you could have them switch it to a different card or something

im willing to do that if you want it

[Edited on March 23, 2006 at 11:03 PM. Reason : s]

3/23/2006 11:03:27 PM

$1150

3/23/2006 11:22:51 PM

if you throw in a set of abec gumballs, i'll take it off of you for $40

3/23/2006 11:24:39 PM

current high bid is $1300

3/23/2006 11:37:15 PM

first person with $1300 cash gets it

4/5/2006 2:20:34 PM

i'll buy it for $1000 cash

4/5/2006 2:22:21 PM

$1200

4/5/2006 7:32:37 PM

this not gone yet? hasn't it been like 3 weeks?

4/5/2006 7:46:11 PM

3 week...damn..you better start including inflation rates when you calculate profits

4/5/2006 7:57:25 PM

You should see about splitting it up into $100 and $200 dollar cards,

Probly much more likely to sell a $100 dollar card for $80 than a $1509 for $1350.

4/5/2006 8:35:30 PM

^yea, but .8 x 1500 = 1200.

4/5/2006 8:51:40 PM

well i kinda forgot i had it for a while after the first deal fell through

4/5/2006 8:55:22 PM

I can do $1200 today (thursday)

4/6/2006 1:07:04 AM

i'll give you 1500 for it. its got 1509 right? so i'm saving 9 bucks...sweet

4/6/2006 1:15:00 AM

im certain i can get $1300



this is pretty fair also


I profit $200
buyer profits $209

4/6/2006 1:40:25 AM

ill give you 13.00$ for it

4/6/2006 4:06:05 AM

oh man thats a good one

its funny because the decimal makes the amount only $13 instead of $1300

man i would love to have just a tiny fraction of your comedic ability

4/6/2006 12:36:10 PM

$1200 today

SERIOUS

4/6/2006 1:40:33 PM

thanks for the offer but ill hold out

4/6/2006 3:10:39 PM

No offense dude..but you've been holding out for almost a month now.
atleast two offers have fallen through...

as the old song says..

"ohhhhh take your money and run"

4/6/2006 3:28:25 PM

^that song isn't that old, and it's "go on, take the money and run".

4/6/2006 3:34:41 PM

isn't it a 70s song? I know Steve Miller was big in the 70s.

4/6/2006 3:42:45 PM

well there isnt a reason for me to hurry up and sell it


so ill keep waiting and keep trying

4/6/2006 4:03:52 PM

it would be funny if you held out long enough to watch best buy go out of business...
