Giant Mr. Saturn… for $2000

I think it would cost less to get one from a Japanese auction, including shipping and all that mess. Damn.

Yeah…you gotta be desperate to buy this one

Speaking of stuff this guy is selling:

lol

His nose is almost as wide as his face on that plushie! Not cool.

If this was 20 years in the future and it was still in the unopened Escargot Express box, I could see it. As it is, it’s technically not new because it’s been removed from the box, so it will never be worth that much. Unless he crams a couple of copies of EarthBound in the box with it

Wow. Yes, EarthBound merchandise is worth a lot on Ebay now, but this is just completely insane.

Earthbound/Mother fans are continually proving that they are willing to pay extraordinary prices for what they want. Don’t forget the phrase he “tried selling these things for crazy prices before too” is a misleading statement. The one he put up for $800 got purchased relatively quickly.

We’re paying hundreds of dollars for air fresheners. The Earthbound community either has a higher concentration of people with a large amount of disposable income or a higher concentration of people who are irresponsible with their money. Either way, we keep buying high, so they’ll keep selling high.

Poe, considering the Japanese depictions of black people I’ve seen in the past, the Bob Sapp doll seems refreshingly reserved.

Holy hell…!!

Xi: “…or a higher concentration of people who are irresponsible with their money.” *ashamedly raises handed*

At first i though it was $2000 starting bid, but then i clicked the link and saw it was actually But It Now. All i can say now is just “good luck”, cuz you’d have to be pretty stupid to pay that when there are other people selling for much less.

Ooo, I want this: http://cgi.ebay.com/EarthBound-Magnets-Tin-Super-Nintendo-SNES_W0QQitemZ320369880056QQcategoryZ139973QQcmdZViewItem

I love fan-made stuff like that.

I’ll check the ATM. Hopefully, my dad transferred a bunch of cash into it. My friends and I *have* been beating up a bunch of local thugs.

wow people are insane these days, especially that dude selling this… if someone buys this… *shakes head* i don’t know what to say.

oh, and Xi, i’d love to say that i’m not irresponsible with money, but lately i’ve been purchasing EB goods over food and stuff XDDD;

@Wil: “Hello, this is your Dad. I took out a 5th mortgage just so I could pay your allowance. Keep up the good work, son, while your mother and sister starve to death!”

@LucasTizma

You needn’t worry about the mother and sister starving. Their house has no kitchen, no pantry, no refrigerator, no anything that could possibly be related to food, yet your mother is able to conjure your favorite meal magically out of thin air.

Don’t forget they are robbing Pokey’s parents blind with all these loans, btw.

LOLOL

This must indeed be the week of crazy EarthBound auctions, this mint copy went for almost $400, and it didn’t seem that much different than the mint ones that sell for ~$200ish.

$2000? Good grief! You could almost buy the actual *planet* of Saturn for that much.

For 2000$ it better come with Mother 4 >_<0

It definately sounds like a haiku .

*gaasp* You could get a real Mr.Saturn for that price
