It couldn't be worth that much. I wonder if anyone is willing to dish out that much money for it? :D

It's got one bid on it already, so I guess someone is. I've paid quite a lot for a rare game before, but I couldn't ever justify spending that much. I can't believe anyone else would, either.

You have to be a really dedicated collector to even think about spending that much money on a game. But a Nintendo game and it doesn't even have the box or anything? No way it could really be worth that much.

Look at that price!

Would you bid on something like this?

400 for a piece of cereal. Obviously people have nothing better to do with their lives. I suppose you could create a whole map if you got enough corn flakes...XD
Everything has a pattern. Something set. Even random things. They aren't random at all, its complex mathematics. The trick is to find the pattern. Then you can exploit it.

People think things have a certain end. Taxes. Work. Due dates don't really exist. Trust me. When you put a band of world scholars in the same room, and set them on talking about anything, the most interesting topics come up. The existence of negative time. The probability of "random occurrence". The government's involvement in the media. And falsified due dates. They aren't real, trust me....

I like how they're trying to get around breaking the rules by selling a coupon instead of the cornflake. :roll: It doesn't even really look like the state as they claim.

Wow, that cornflake coupon on ebay sold for over a $1000.00 bucks:

Sounds like the winner might be legit too.

Quick, I gotta get me a box of cornflakes and see what I can find, lol. :rofl:
