Just goes to show that, yes, reading the page does help before bidding:

PSP Box for $200

So, yeah, I guess the person thought they were getting a cheap PSP. Almost makes me want to sell my Japanese Nintendo DS box.

That's friggin' hilarious. Very sneaky of the guy who put that up there though. I mean, if I see a PSP box, I'm going to assume there is a PSP inside, but I'd probably be smart enough to read the full description.

That harkens back to the time 20 people were bidding on a picture of console and like 50 games, thinking they were bidding on what was in the picture.

What kills me is that the bidding history shows there were people actually fighting for this item.

Hey, it's a really nice box. I mean, maybe the guy knew that there wasn't a PSP in there. He just wanted that well conditioned box. >.> <.<

Maybe he has a PSP and lost his box?!

... regardless, it's awesome.

I still think the best item I ever saw on eBay, was a plastic sealed bag of "Captured Hurricane Air" for like, $300+.

Seriously, take a zipped lock bag, blow it up, make it sound fancy, and there's your $300 item.

Someone once paid me $10 for gas money in exchange for a really bad (even though they all are, in my opinion) Smash Mouth CD.

There's also the people who try to sell their soul on eBay, hand-written on pieces of paper in blood for something like $500+ with no bids.

I was actually looking on ebay to see if I could find anything like that. I couldn't find anything for "souls", "human souls", or "my soul"

It's just funny, literally type in "anything", "everything" or whatever, and you get tons of results.

... Even "hamburger", egh.

Also thanks to Attack of the Show, I've seen a fair share of bowls of cereal (yeah, with milk and old cereal in it), going for tons of money. Supposedly the cereal formed emblems of sports teams and stuff ...

You're kidding, right? No way. The title of this thread alone was enough to make me laugh. I bet that when the bids started getting around $20 people thought it was actually a PSP selling for that cheap. Unbelievable. And Rogue, what kills me is that people actualy need to buy a box in the first place. But I guess there may be some reasons.

Look in the winners feedback, apparently he refused to pay, and also it appears that he is from Spain which would explain why he would misunderstand. And Xeo the pants thing is hilarious

I can think of at least 5000 uses for a PSP box. Then again, the same can be said for an average cardboard box one would find in the dump.
What an idiot.

I just think it's even more funny since it appears this guy even won an actual PSP just before this BOX and for 20 Euro, I might add (at most $38).

There nothing he can do about it, like return or sue for fraud.

Cause it cleary stated that it was a BOX at least 3 times.
