Ever notice when somebody is posting a for sale ad for a game, the seller often tries to sugarcoat the listing by including some kind of excuse for doing so? And in many cases these excuses seem hardly legit or believable?
Instead of the honest approach-
"I'm sick and tired of playing and looking at this game. Priced to sell. Make it gone"
or
"My basement is flooded, I need to sell all my games to pay for repairs"
You get excuses like
" We are adding a bathroom to our 20,000 square ft mansion, and need the money to pay for that"
or
" I hate to sell it, but need the money for a down payment on my new Ferrari "
or even
" The wifey is long overdue for her next liposuction, so my grail game has to go to pay for it"
Yes, the marketplace is flooded with excuses why it is time to let their prized pinball machines go. This thread is a place to link those excuses, funny or not, as they hit the marketplace.
