Nutty eBay bids: Karaoke Revolution PS2 and Chocobo Happy Meal
Here’s a couple of recently ended eBay auctions that just about made my jaw drop.
The first, a complete set of Karaoke Revolution games for the PS2. Yes, I know they’re very much sought after, but the price? $800, sold to one “lvlovernpink.” Meanwhile, other complete sets sit unpurchased at $229. No one ever said eBay bidders were rational. (thanks to monkeydeew for the tip)
Karaoke Revolution 1 2 3 Party Country American Idol — ended price: $800
Silly me. I put in a bid of 3 GBP (about $6) on this next item, thinking that I actually had a chance of winning. I love Final Fantasy, but as I told my friend on this one, at $132, I don’t think the winner of this item can really be called a “winner.”
McDonald’s Final Fantasy Chocobo Dungeon Promo Moogle — ended price: 68 GBP, about $132 US

damn you’re too lucky. i just saw FF VI… in town a few hours ago. I say ‘…’, there was a £3.99 sticker over the rest, so could have been 6, 7 or 8, and I figured if it was 8 it’s gotta be worth owt (never liked it) so came home to check. low and behold, they all go for £15 - £20, go back in to town, 3 hours later and it’s gone. So I’ll never know

Just to clarify, these weren’t MY auctions, just some crazy ones that I stumbled across.
