Ebay/fb update 07/01 - original drawing SOLD -

[Butterballs]

On mobile so can't make good screengrabs, but

He resisted the original Sonichu /rosechu drawing at 200$ buy it now

And it's marked as being sold.

He posted on FB about relisting it a mere three hours ago, will try and wrangle a screenshot somehow.

Skyraider91 strikes again.

 

[House Of Reeves]

And this buyer is going to back out as well. It will be re-listed later this week.
Lather, rinse, and repeat.

 

[Pally]

I still can't believe it....200 dollars is pretty high a price for it, realistically speaking.

Isn't buy it now the one where you got to pay in advance?

 

[Butterballs]

Nah, you have to pay up immediately with BiN. He's definitely got his $200.

My bet would be that the buyer immediately complains to PayPal or something and Chris has to give the money back, though.

 

[libertyoftheaether]

I'm surprised he actually managed to supress his greed enough to lower the price. I guess even Fatty sometimes realises what he's doing doesn't work.

 

[deadson]

Wow, Chris must've been really desperate if he dropped the price down to 200$.

Lol.

Unsure what the better outcome is here. If he gets his money and gets to keep it, he might get ideas, and will definitely learn nothing. He'll list more at $200 and not make nearly as much as if he was listing at like, $30.

On the other hand, this is fucking interminable, and I am almost certain a buyer's dispute is coming, and there will be another month of weening and whiny Facebook updates.

I think we know him well enough to assume he will learn nothing from this. Whenever life offers him rare doses of respite, he'll always want more and then we're back to square one. This is about the only instance of irredeemable personality I've ever come across.

He'll blow it all on legos no doubt.

confirmation of cash in hand

 

[Varis]

If it was a legit buyer... hey, good for you, Chris!

If it was a troll, eBay is about to fuck him over.

 

[DeadMansHand]

There's no chance it's legit. The buyer will claim it's not what Chris represented, and Chris will be out the $200 (that he's doubtless already spent) AND his silly drawing.

"Dear Ebay. The description said "fresh" but the drawing was covered with mold and was slightly wilted. Definitely not fresh. Money back, please."

That's exactly what will happen. $10 says the picture will be defaced somehow, and then returned to him.

 

[Ron_Swanson]

Whoever spent $200 in Chris is in all likelihood someone just as sad as him, and probably not any smarter than Chris itself. Be it trolling or for real, you can't "spend" that kind of money on an internet autistic without having some issues up there yourself.


(I put spend in quotes because what if Ebay resolution, blah blah blah. Even if the money is taken away from Chris at the end, no sane adult ties up $200 of money for whatever long it will take to fuck with an autistic online.)

 

[Le Bateleur]

With this and the autographed photos he's sold, Chris has made more money today than I will.

Feels weird, but hat off to him. He learned something from his litany of eBaying errors.

 

[ShittyRecolor]

This might sound a bit retarded, and forgive me for being such an Ebay layman, but what are the odds that Chris is trying to pull off a "Lego-pseudo-gift" manouver, i.e. he'd created and fake account and bought the drawing himself to encourage future buyers?

But yeah, unless it's a really stupid ween or a grade A enabler, Chris won't be able to keep his $$$ for long. And I'M not talkig about him immediately spending it on Lego either.

 

[Damocles_Sword]

Oh great, now EVERY scribble he lists will be minimum price $200. This, combined with the 7 autographed pictures sold, Group of weens pooling money, or epic troll inbound?

 

[Very Honest Content]

Well, I'm going to climb out on a limb here and just say it; Chris earned this money and whatever doofus/ hit the BIN button is either pathetic/stupid and doesn't deserve the money anymore as a result of that fact about them.

I believe this qualifies as a 'Level-Up' moment in Chris' life, maybe the only one he's ever had actually. Best of luck to him the rest of the year with his commissions of kindergarten quality scribbles and in the ensuing copyright infringement lawsuit on it's way from Sega and Nintendo.
