| If I would make a lot of money off of doing this:
- Taking one of my Link to the Past cartridges, and paint over the gray cartridge with gold, then put it up on some online bidding place as a "Rare Gold LTTP Cart!" I mean if people are selling bowls of cereal on eBay, why not? Someone would probably believe it's real. (this reminds me when there was once a Super Mario World hack for bidding also)  |

| I bet you could do it, but I'm sure you'd have to put somewhere in the auction that it is not the real deal. Or else it could be fraud or something of the like. | |||

| I think that would be awsome. I know it would work because like you said Xeo they sell bowls of cereal on that site. They even sell ghost's for millions of doller's. So I dont see any reason you cant do it. | |||

| I know someone who has sold "X-Boxes" with "odd chips" on ebay for 500 dollars a box. They were just boxes in the shape of an X with potatoe chips inside. Some people though it was a typo and the odd was supposed to be mod.
They sell ghosts? Heh, I'm gonna try selling imaginary friends on there. |

| O.o Did he get in trouble for that or did Ebay just say that you bought it so now you got to keep it or something. | |||

Hah, that would be a good one ... 
Thing is though, I'm afraid if I did this, I'd end up thinking the cartridge looks awesome and would probably keep it. If I did this I'd probably do it to my Best Sellers cart, and not my original one (which looks extremely mint-y). Speaking of weird eBay oddities ... a friend of mine and I once saw a zipped lock bag of "Captured Hurricane Air". I think it was going for over $500 ... yeah. |

| IT CAME... FROM EEEEEBAY!!!
I love Attack of the Show... they've got a special on most of they're episodes about oddities they find on Ebay. Like a ceremic bunny, with a gun. And tons of other crazy stuff. Oh, attack of the show is a show on G4... if you get digital cable, G4 is usually what I watch when I'm really bored and at my dads house. Do the gold cartridge thing. You'll probably get somethin out of it. (Last edited by J. Literal on 08-04-05 01:56 AM) |

| Describe is as a "Rare Gold HP Cart".
HP = Hand Painted, of course. NO one will know what the hell HP means..but it sounds fancy enough. And if the winning bidder bitches..well..they should have asked what HP means. Sorry..no refunds, no returns. |

Originally posted by Black LordeBay really doesn't care about minor things like that. People may also want to bid not because they're fooled, but just to get a kick out of it. I remember when I saw someone selling a cart featuring Mario, Cap'n Crunch, and Snow White on the cover, I badly wanted to find out what it was.
Go for it. |

You could say in the description something like "fool your friends with this handpanted cartridge" but bury it in a bunch of text about how cool and rare it is.  Or something. |

| It'll sell, just like bags of hurricane air and water drank by Angelina Jolie. I should try that with some of my stuff... | |||
