ice already posted this, as it is his sale.

Dont post ebay auctions that arent yours. Bad idea.

Anyway, funny story around that, Ice let his friend play with it before the auction ended and the friend lost it. So he was desperately looking for a stock, old edition nite finder so he could redo the mod and send it off instead of the lost one. Kinda funny if you ask me.

The bidding war between 3 kids.

Auto bids brought it from the starting price.

All the kid bid was automatic.

I bet he has no idea that the bid is over 50 dollars.

Who says that Uin13 and Nerfboy12 are not the same person and he bought his own gun with a second account so that people would think that he's cool because he made something that someone actually liked for once?

Because he'd be paying seller fees on his own gun.

Maybe it was enough of a self esteem boost to make it worth his while.

just like the lancer, the reason the tard might have paid for so much is because of the advertising. There is a youtube video where he deliberitaley shoots from point blank and exclaims that there is so much power. I don't doubt that it has powere but the ranges, no freaking way.

It went for that much because of all the attention it got. It wasn't the best, it was just a first. Nobody made a working replica of the popular video game gun, and F_a24 made a loose approximation of it, so people ate it up.

Proxy bidding, or "Auto bids" as you call them, won't take your bids over a price that you specify. If the final bid was for $265 or whatever, the person doing the bidding was willing to pay that much and was aware that they might end up doing so. EBay won't place a proxy bid for more than your maximum bid, so you don't have to worry about it going over what you are willing to pay.

Was this auction closed when you posted it? You know what, it doesn't matter. If you are not selling the item don't post an ebay link here. Period. It's in the code of conduct.
