The game retails for somewhere around $90… to the amazement of pretty much everyone… the game sold for $9,100 on eBay.
Even though he was trying to get a message across to his son… he can’t argue with making $9,000 profit. But, everyone don’t worry - the kids Christmas won’t be ruined by his “experimenting” ways… the father has stated the following.
I am still considering getting him a game for his Nintendo. Maybe something like Barbie as the Island Princess or Dancing With the Stars. These games are in stock everywhere I go, and I know he will just love them.
This whole situation is quite comical… but if you want to read the whole ordeal head over to eBay .
