Wow more Missourians than I thought on here. Hello brothers. I'm smack dab in the middle of KC and Columbia in a town you've prolly not heard of lol.

You might be surprised. 

It's pretty cool seeing people that aren't far from where I live considering that this site has members from all over the world.
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

That Super Mario Land ad reminds me of people who sell a loose cart as brand new... because 'I only played it once or twice'. The mind boggles.

People list stuff on eBay that way too. It's obnoxious and makes no sense.


Tried texting, got no response :P

haha hell ya it is. I've wanted one since I was 16, and now that i'm old enough and can afford one they are so rare where I live its pretty impossible unless I get one cross country and with the weather here in Massachusetts its not really worth it since I can't garage it.

but it is and will always be my favorite car.

Also that AD has been edited, he only wants $40 for it after it being on Amazon for 80. lol

I drive a 2009 G8, first and only car I'll ever buy new.  It's the GT model, so 360 HP, but 28ish MPG.  It was my daily driver for 3 years, so needed to save some. They ater made a firehawk edition of the G8, http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/2009-pontiac-g8-gt-slp-firehawk-specialty-file

I do know of someone in my area with a firehawk they bought just for collecting.  He has it in storage.

Nice when I was a teenager this was my 1st encounter with a Firehawk in person. The kid totalled it a couple weeks later after I Took these pictures.. I was very upset not only at the fact some young kid just a couple years older than me had it but he drove like an idiot and wrapped it around a pole..

My favorites are:

"Brand new. Only been used once!"

and

"CIB. Only missing box and manual!"

and of course

"NBA Live '97 - RARE!!!!!!!!!" (or insert any other extremely common game)

The worst is people on Ebay posting things as "Very Good" or "Like New" condition when it is disc only.  They are talking about how the disc is in very good condition, yet even at the lower "Good" category you still must include the cover and instructions.  Anything that is disc only MUST be listed as "Acceptable" by Ebay standards, but no one seems to care.  Drives me crazy which is why I don't trust that anymore...and if you post something from your iPhone with no description and no picture I'm not gonna touch it.
