Could have had this

Instead, I'll have to settle on this.

I still wanna get the Street Fighter movie game, so I can rip it apart.

Dude, 40 games!?! I don't know, I think maybe the first one is a better deal. Always wanted a Saturn. This means we get some Saturn stuff on the show! Kick-ass!

Ok, whoever is outbidding me is puttin down more than $80 on this thing, not to mention the $20 for shipping. It's bad enough I already shelled out $90 for the 3DO to get 34 games. My limit for ebay spending is usually 50-60 bucks.

For all 3 systems, plus Sonic for Dreamcast, Spider-Man 2 for Playstation, Street Fighter: The Movie for Saturn, Trevor McFur and Dino Dudes, plus Kasumi Ninja for Jaguar, I spent a total of over $200.

Not to mention I got my eye on a professional lighting kit, this is a more subtle light than the 650 watt halogen I'm using, plus it's got the umbrella, so I don't have to hang a white shirt from my ceiling to get good lighting.

12 hours, the auction is over, and someone outbid me, so I need to go back on ebay after work, and see how high it got. I could "Buy it Now", but they're asking almost $50, plus 20 for shipping. After spending so much for the three systems, I gotta take it easy for a while on the spending.

Ok, now I'm upset. I bid on a 3DO system, and won. I paid the $90 for it, and haven't gotten it yet, and this was a month ago. I messaged the guy asking where it is, and I have heard nothing. I'm thinking this person either didn't send it, doesn't want to send it, or whatever.

Less games for me to worry about. This system came with 34 games. I would love to have it, certainly, but not if I'm going to get screwed like this.

Dude, that blows. I've never had any trouble with sellers on ebay. It would be nice to have reviews from such an obscure system. I don't know of anyone who had a 3DO.

Freaking Ebay pros! I was all lined up to get Castlevania: Lament of Innocence for my PS2 for like 5 bucks and some tricky sucker snached it up when I was under a minute to go in the auction. I didn't even have a chance to re-bid. I did win Super R-type for my SNES for cheap, so it's not all bad.
