Looks like the auction is over.  $750,250!  I wonder if the winning bidder will actually pay....

Was contacted today. Apparently every high bidder who was above reserve has backed out.

Doug if your bid was serious you might still have a shot.

I had a distinct feeling that this wouldn't bode well..and to be honest...not that impressed...nice guy & nice collection but too put my two cents in not impressed...John the "Sega Guy" (lives in Washington I believe) has quite a more impressive collection in my opinion.

Does this work?
I could screen cap on my phone instead if you want it in a tighter image.

"To be completely honest I put my bid in in the hopes of getting it closer to the reserve (while staying under). I assumed his reserve price would have been significantly lower than it was and knowing what he needs the money for and what I could realistically offer are vastly apart.

I apologize for bidding and feel bad that the people who did get up over the reserve price backed out. If he broke it down even to a system by system lots I think he could have a more realistic chance of moving it. But it is really just a ton of money for even top tier collectors to shell out."


To lazy to take another screen cap and edit it in paint.
Even my offer of ~98k was WAY more than i could even think about offering. Christ my collection now doesn't fit into my apartment and i have whittled it down to under 1k primarily DVD based games.

If i had 98k to spend i would be getting a house.

Well played and gentlemanly.

Also, for those that care, the seller has been having a meltdown at digitpress. Jason Wilson even stepped up to the plate. It's a frighteningly bizarre and crazy read. A situation that got out of control spirals out into a train wreck.

Ooooo something to start reading!

I think it was on page 7 where someone said "Who said DP is dead" and the reply was "Nothing brings DP together like drama."
