Here is waht I know of this auction the 360 is not an Elite, it is refurbished, it comes with no games, no extras of any kind, and most important of all........
Unless I tripped and fell through a tear in the time-space continuum it is not November 22, 2005.
Two bidders have forced this thing through the roof of reasonable pricing and I have no idea why.

If anyone spots anything different let me know.

Seems pretty fishy to me. The seller also says its new in the description. Worst of all he/she has a feedback of 0.

And why is their a picture from some kid's birthday party on the bottom?
That's an odd one alright. I can't see any reason why anyone would spend that kind of money on a refurbished unit. Maybe it's some of her friends playing a prank on her.

So, not once but twice. How hard is it to figure out the title when the letters are so nice and spaced out.

Not what I was shooting for but it works. Actually he listed a pre-unity lot and has a Bloodshot and Rai #0. I know it is two but I didn't want to change the lyrics.

This is one is from the same seller. Are we supposed to send him a message about the location of the blue book?

http://cgi.ebay.com/Flash_W0QQitemZ1801 ... dZViewItem

:hm:

And I find it quite humorous that a comic about turtles is bundled with comics about the flash.

It's not. They just share a photo. If you read the description, you are just bidding for the blue book in the middle.

It was the phrasing that got me. "Is the blue book in the middle."

The grammarian in me hates it when people write questions as statements (and when people put question marks at the end of statements).

Does it bother anyone else.

Maybe it is just me?
