eBay.co.uk: fruit machine cd games cheats emptiers (item 120128109996 end time 04-Jun-07 16:17:30 BST)

put an ebay auction on cause i am fed up of the scammers getting money from all the hard work that goes on in here?

dont know how long it will last

[carlosgee]

lol whats the betting you get a bid placed on this. Fairplay to you my friend lets see how many noobs bid

[johnjohn]

well they win themselves a nice blank cd

[todd1970]

Looolllll £2.01 for 1 blank CD ? thats a bit of a rip is it not ?
Although my brother bought one recently and it came with a letter saying in no way shape or form am i taking responsibilty or credit that goes into these guys hard work that make the machines..All your paying me for is my time that goes nto burning the disc and the raw materials and postage.

Which is fair enuf i suppose.

[johnjohn]

if u read the auction i will give the site addy's for FREE to get FREE EMU'S AND ROMS , but if i put addy's in auction page it is spamming, so i hope i am getting around ebays rules like this , anybody bids and wins gets a cd with NOTHING ON IT NOT EVEN A ROM, its just so sad that all the hard work that goes into making these for our enjoyment , they dont get anything out of it apart from satisfaction and a bit of respect , yet joe bloggs just downloads and sells them and gets away with it ,

If they;re stupid enough to buy the blank CD, they will probably buy the "Your drive might have wiped it due to compatibility. There was stuff there before.

DId you put fingerprints on the disk so it looked "used"?

[johnjohn]

ok looks like it was a bad idea then, the idea was not to sell a blank disc but i had to put something on there so ebay would allow it, i am hoping nobody bids on it, the idea was so i could tell people where to get the roms for nothing via them asking me a question then i could give the site addys/ ok guess u lot like your hard work being sold by people who do nothing

just wanted to let people know they can get the roms for nothing and not line the scumbags pockets.........anyone have a better idea how to do it?

[todd1970]

Aye..stab the c**ts

eBay.co.uk: Fruit Machine Emulator CD. Inc 5x Section 16. May 2007 (item 160123463212 end time 04-Jun-07 23:03:45 BST)

At least in this item they put this site name in the small print. It's there but you have to look really hard. Also weren't the section 16 emu's banned? If he got that Cluedo SWP off here where abouts is it cos i've never seen it?

Good move John.......

I agree, people who emulate Fruit Machines for the enjoyment of others go unrewarded. I'd love to try it myself but unfortunately haven't got a clue where to even start ! It must take a fair few hours of effort to actually make an emulation. I for one, appreciate the work others put in.

Just be careful no scammer actually buys you Ebay listing as then they will have access to your name and address etc....

You did a good thing - You will not stop it unfortunately - As more and more people seem to be buying these (especially the crap Section 16's). I myself code Action Replay Codes for Playstation 2 & 3 and sell them. The difference being I need to work on the conversion (at least taking some skill) - even though it is only converting from NTSC to PAL. We should all buy these fruit emulation DVD's on eBay and not pay (only get a bull shit negative feedback) which we can leave for them in turn, maybe putting off at least some potential new buyers. Well done for trying.

In the name of god don't mention Fairplay!

they took it off and got no emails asking for site info , so looks like the low life wins yet again , sorry for the wasted time i did try ;-)

[jamesb99_1999]

I guess ebay are as much to blame as anuybody else - as they really don't give a shit about who sells what --- I can't see them getting away with it forever - Sure ebay rules will eventually be forced to be change until then, seems very little we can do.. However has anybody considered organised sabotage???

There was apparently a campaign in America which lots of people got together and did something against ebay - I can't find the news article at the moment. Anybody know which one I am on about.. Can definitely trojan the sellers though, depending on how savvy they are

Anybody get any sellers mail addresses spam engine ready

[jamesb99_1999]

by the way, just kidding if you know what I mean - wink wink - email me their email addresses -- Just kidding --- or am I.....
