I posted a link to that same auction a few weeks ago. I'm curious who the ng.com seller / buyer were as well.

I'm also curious to see if that cart actually sells for above $500. He's lowered the opening bid from the $1000 it was before.

I don't think "1000angrysoccermoms" is an active member. Besides the name, this user stands out in my mind because for a while they listed a string of high dollar AES games on eBay. Many would get bid up and sell only to be subsequently relisted a few times. Probably some shady shill bidding activity and a reminder to take even eBay sold auction prices with a pinch of salt when trying to determine value.

There's a guy in Israel that does this - can't recall his name. He put up a number of AES carts repeatedly. The one I had interest in, Ragnagard, I bid on. I think I capped at $350 and I got sniped for $355. No second chance offer, game relisted like 3 days later. This happened 4-5 times - each time I stopped at $350 and only 1 bid over me - then relist. I messaged him and asked what the deal was. No reply.

:( That sucks, man. Makes you wonder if shilling is rampant on a $350 game then imagine how much of this shit goes on for the four figure ones.

I went looking for the guy - instead found this guy:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Twinkle-Sta...788819?hash=item25b94f8ed3:g:XFcAAOSwAuNW37lD

Loose TSS, listed as conversion and STILL selling for $550. Like - actually showing as sold. Fools and their money.

"You can have a nice, OG, legit, MVS TSS for $250. Or, I can hack it up, put it into a used AES shell, make a natty label, and charge you $300 more - what say you?" "Yes please!"

I think his name was Soster. He was the definition of a flipper from what I remember.

Looks like he's cranking out Pulstar "conversions" as well for the same price.

It actually says "This listing has ended. The seller has relisted this item or one like this."

He has a nice collection.

BTW http://www.ebay.com/itm/SNK-VS-CAPCOM-SVC-CHAOS-SNK-NEO-GEO-AES-USA-VERSION-VERY-RARE-/381582588438?hash=item58d8183a16:g:jEcAAOSwxcRW-Fle

SVC Chaos English AES is no where near $1,000.... :shame:
