LMAO

Paying for something, is not my definition of "winning" anything. Damn brainwashed Americans. You'll believe anything advertisers and companies tell you to believe.

Next time before calling everyone "Brain Washed Americans", take a look at their locations, and I take it by that ****ing stupid post you've never seen eBay before. :)
 
Eeeep - the brainwashing is spreading already. :laugh:
 
You're such a troll. Do you even know what an auction is?

This has sod-all to do with consumer culture and anyway everybody's from the UK or singapore or some shit like that.
 
How many of you are acctually eBayers anyway?
 
Not me! But I know what an Auction is.
 
Nice. I won the same edition some time ago, but the strategy guide is missing. I payed $5 (but a lot more for shipping). And in the last couple of years I won some other Half-Life stuff on ebay:

Yes, I am crazy.
 
Wow sell that on eBay
Btw ur missing the platinum collection box
 
wow.. thats dedication.

email the pics to valve and ask if you're missing anything, i'm sure they'll be flattered.

In other news, I just went down the road and won a coffee and some cake, tomorrow I need to go and win a new spindle of CD's too...
 
Where's your plush headcrab, man?
 
I am still missing a lot of editions. (Platinum Collection, Platinum Collection 2, HL Anthology, HL2 Game of the Year edition etc.) But I think I have enough Half-Life editions for now.

And I hate the plush headcrab :P
 
Rofl Shasta, you're just making yourself look more stupid. You're insinuating that buying something through an auction has been known as something else besides "winning"? And that the word "winning" is being spread around? Ok, what was it called before "winning"? "Today I (blank) an auction"
Eh?

Anyway.
Thanks for reminding me Jintor, now that I've got a credit card I need to buy some Valve merchandise!! :D
Too bad the plush crabs are out of stock. Just ordered a DOG vs Strider poster. Wee :D
 
Yep, unfortunatly, i used to live in a Semi-Flat till about 3 - 4 years ago (I'm 17 btw) .. Then moved into a nice house, however there are only 3 bedrooms, so i've still been sharing with a younger brother, but luckily we're converting a few of the rooms and moving a few bits about and i get my own room ^.^ .. so once i get another Job i'll be getting quite a fair bit of the merch :)

It's not rocket science.

You don't sell things at auctions, you auction the things.

'Alright!'

'Look there, it's a PLASTIC DINOSAUR!'

'And here's a stuffed SUMO WRESTLER!'

'Yuck.'

Fail.

Oh yeah, it's not rocket science because people don't stuff rocket science full of bullshit and idiocy.

Sure, whatever. I already said it's NOT rocket science. You're a bit slow on the uptake there, buddy.
 
I said the reason it's not is BECAUSE it's not full of bullshit. If your uber-grammar rules were rocket science than it has got to be full of bullshit. Since it isn't, rocket science ISN'T full of bullshit.

You fail at logic, my friend. I believe your problem lies in that you've got Down's Syndrome.

And anyways, stop trolling already. I've got a link of your trolling in my sig already and I don't want to have to add to it. :)

Anyway, as usual you completely ignore my relevant point. You auction things and not buy them from one.

Very nice. Going to post mine soon. It isnt as great tho :)
 
I've still got my original hl and op4 box :D
Unfortunately there was some shitty promotion going and they stuck a big sticker on the front of the hl one, and i never managed to get it off properly. Oh well!

Game boxes used to be so big back then... i really liked them. Oh well, i don't even have a hl2 box now - totally digital.
 
Lol i have the first CD that came out when the game released, however the box is gone. My mom threw it out, hated her for that.

Now i only have a few left, bought the entire Tiberium Sun box with the manual, WITHOUT the actuall CDs with the game on it, for 10 Dollars! Im glad i did.

However i cant retreve all those boxes of games i had before, they are gone and arent coming back :( damn you mom for destroying my gaming collection.
 
I threw out a huge load of game boxes a few years ago. All that I've got left now are my original Half-Life box, and my limited edition Tiberian Sun box (with pewter figurine!).
 
I've already given him infraction points. D:
 
Up to j00, you terrible, terrible, tyrant.
 
I have System Shock 2 in all it's original packaging...I cherish it!
 
Let's go play on WON!


*shoo for those who know not what I speak of*
 
My little brother picked up the original half life from our vacation house...god knows what it was doing there. The thing is practically ANCIENT, but my lucky little bro got it in mint condition, and he nearly has it beat by now.
 
hail the little one, he will bring forth great power!
 
I still have my original HL cd on a shelf behind my computer :) I'm still using the exact same CD key as I was all those years ago.
