The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Yes, shameless self-promotion with for my eBay auction.  Deal with it!

Anyways, here's the story behind the item I'm auctioning off.

I went to the Walmart I work at today to get the newest game, Batman: Arkham City.  However, I couldn't find it.  I asked the manager of the area and when we found it, it was all sold out.  I was a little upset about that.

However, he then told me about the Collector's Boxes they still had in the back, so he went and got me one.  The dang thing costs $99.99 plus tax.  I bought it anyways.

Inside it was a booklet that had all of the various main characters (heroes and villains) you would run into in the game, along with the game itself.  As well as some downloadable content.

It also had a movie I'll check out later today.

And this particular item...

It's just basically a collector's item that I don't want, so I'm auctioning it off to the highest bidder.  I'm sure there's plenty of Batman fans that want it more than me.

The auction will last 7 days.

Best of luck! :)

Okay, now I'm getting upset.  What's going on?  The person who won hasn't paid me.  It's as simple as that.  It's been nearly a month and they haven't paid me yet.

I've already sent an invoice to try and "encourage" them to pay me, but if I don't get my money by the end of the month, I'm taking legal action on this.
