Vintage I'm assuming must be a 1991, 21 years old. I guess my original Nintendo would classify as that, maybe I can get a few grand for it.

Seller has some other classics. A Magee reprint at $350.00 and a '68 Topps Yaz that he considers Gem Mint (looks ex to me) at $4795.00. An optimist I guess.

I buy/sell original Nintendo stuff. You'd be shocked if you saw what some of it was going for right now (games and systems).

If you still have the box/packaging that the Nintendo came in they are actually quite valuable. If you have any new games/systems - they are very valuable.

I have a Nintendo that is still new and unopened (from 1986) and it's worth around $2000.

Yeah some games are ridiculous. Metal Slugs for some system my buddy got paid a ton for it.

Crazy what the prices are doing on that stuff. In the late 90's - you could by new original Nes games a flea markets for 50 cents a piece.

Today some of those same games are going for over $1000. Should have held onto a few..

Well, it is stunning, just not the way the seller intends it to be.

Hahaha! Look what response I got out of him.

Dear gulf-coast-trader,

Why would I buy this fake card when I can get a real 100+ year old card for $275 less?

More cluelessness from this seller in response to my question:

Subject: RARE Gem Mint 1968 Topps #250 Carl Yastrzemski Red Sox Baseball Card HOF

Dear gulf-coast-trader,
I can tell from your scan that the condition of this card is a lot closer to EX (fuzzy corners, large number of surface scratches) and is not anywhere near Gem Mint. Did you know that this card that you are offering for almost $5K sells for about $10 on eBay? Thanks, Rob

His response:
Dear certomatic,
The card is currently obtaining BGS grading. It appears to be Grade 10 - Gem Mint. There's only one other like it on eBay, and that is $1000 more than this card. Thanks for your interest.

- gulf-coast-trader

----------
Don't even know where to start with that response. It is "obtaining" BGS grading, but he has for sale raw right now. What will arrive if I buy it? Where is the card? It appears to be a Grade 10, but he has no official grade. Maybe he is channeling the Beckett graders. This card probably would grade BGS 4 due to its poor surface and weak corners, but to him it's a 10 worth 5K.

At first I thought the guy just didn't know anything about cards, now I wonder what he's trying to pull.

That's great man. :)
