Seriously? The first time this Xbox 360 was on eBay, someone bid on it, but eBay pulled the auction over legitimacy concerns. But apparently something was worked out and now it’s relisted at the same $1.1 million dollar price. This whole thing, btw, is shitballs crazy and eBay agrees according to a note on the listing.
From the eBay listing,
In an effort for full disclosure about why this item has been listed and re-listed numerous times I will attempt to give a brief description about the events that led to its being de-listed twice, and why it is now up again. Let me first say that EBay DOES NOT endorse this listing in any way, but they are now, to the best of my knowledge, satisfied that all listing requirements have been met.
This item was originally listed on the August 4th, 2009, under the user id dmorrill123 and was de-listed for the following reason: “Insufficient description of the item or no photos of the item.” This problem was remedied by uploading extra pictures and adding some technical information.
This item was again de-listed on August 7th, my original account was suspended, and the item was de-listed for the following reason: “Pay Pal is unable to process a payment of this size”. I have now opened a new account, dmorrill321, and am using a processor other than Pay Pal. To the best of my understanding, all listing requirements have now been met.
This item was again de-listed on October 5th, for the following reasons: “your listing was in violation of eBay’s No Item policy. Listings with the apparent, primary purpose of expressing the seller’s personal views are not permitted.” I am not expressing a personal view with this item and to avoid any confusion on this matter I have taken down the story of how I became the owner of this item. The second reason given: “Unfortunately, we had to remove your listing because the following information violates our policy: Item is listed in Collectibles > Pinbacks, Bobbles, Lunchboxes > Pinbacks > Campaigns, Elections, Politics, but the item being sold is not a pinback, bobble, or lunchbox. A better category for this autographed item would be Collectibles > Autographs > Political > Other.” I have now chosen this new catagory to list under. To the best of my understanding, all listing requirements have now been met.
I don’t how I feel about this. On one hand I would like to see this guy profit off of some crazy right-wing nutjob, but on the other hand it sickens me to think someone has $1.1 million to blow like that. Who knows, maybe after my spot on NCIS last night, my signature is worth something. Maybe I should sign my old iBook and list it for $500k. Any takers?
I just think it’s great that he’ll take your $1.1 million and still have the balls to charge $15 for shipping and handling.
Indeed! haha
Well the shipping is fair since this special Xbox comes with “Alaska Heli: Protected Wildlife Slayer-3D” preinstalled.
what the hell is she thinking? i mean just because her name is on it i makes it worth something jesus Christ i have my name on all my underwear does that make them worth 1.1 million?!
not she, he. and no, your underwear isn’t. beyonce’s might be.
so sarah palin is now a guy? and sure if you get s beyonce’s thong maybe some jerk-off will buy it
The question is, was she able to spell her name correctly? Hard to tell, and I wouldn’t give her the benefit of the doubt because “it’s all about job creation.”
Who knows, maybe some left-wing nutjob will buy it?
I think you have your wings backwards.
That would be like an Apple fanboy buying something signed by Steve Balmer.
ha!
No. They would buy it for something nefarious.
If you look at the photo where she’s actually signing the xbox, you can tell it’s not the one being sold on ebay.
Wow, sad that someone would actually want something signed by that moron.
How in the world did he come up with a value that high?
If Sarah Palin is a nutjob, then the entire right wing of the political spectrum is a nutjob. To my knowledge, she hasn’t said anything that deviates from Republican Party doctrine, or stretched it to its extreme. Michelle Bachmann, she’s a right wing nutjob. Sarah Palin? Eccentric, maybe, but people seem to have made up their minds that she is stupid, or crazy, or both. If I’m wrong about crazy statements, then please correct me, but during the election other than her lack of foreign policy experience I didn’t see much wrong with her.
She suggested going to war with Russia over Jordan! That’s not just lack of foreign policy experience, it’s complete idiocy. Hell, I’m a software engineer with 0 foreign policy experience, but it’s still blazingly obvious that such a thing would start World War 3. Might as well pull a name out of a hat and nuke someone while we’re at it.
As a engineer of any kind you are gifted with common sense, something lacking in politicians.
And no its removed. WTF
“This listing (300335581705) has been removed, or this item is not available.”
nope, still online.
someone stupid repub is going to get ripped off of $1.099999 million dollars and then have to pay $100 to fix it when it RROD.
ROFL ha i remember when i got the “RROD” i hate that thing!!
Who could possibly give a damn about this? Is someone here planning on buying it?
most likely
Hmm. Pointless shots at conservatives, wait a minute, is this Dvice.com?
no
not yet at least
