    They didn't ask to be famous. But they're not sore.

    Oh god, thanks for reminding me about that Marky Mark Sega CD game.... I still need Popful Mail for my Sega CD, however.

    As for New Kids On The Block... I think he was being trolled by 4channers. #nes

    Hmm for $600 I can think of lots of things that would give me better feelings than that of lost dreams and a wasted childhood gushing over those boys. Not that I did that you know. #nes

    Who the fuck would pay 1.1 million for a 360 signed by someone like her?

    I think there are only 3 people who can manage that. In order (most likely first):

    1. Chuck Norris

    Would any other REAL celebrity's autograph make a 360 worth any money? What if was signed by the US prez or Angelina Jolie?

    Asking $1.1 million for a console signed by a second-rate ex-governor of Alaska?

    Honestly, how much more disconnected from reality can this seller be? Even limited editions signed by industry celebrities with custom casing don't go for half that much. A regular 360 with Palin's chicken scratch on it? And asking over a million for it? Give me a break.

    This guy is a moron. If someone had 1.1 million dollars, they could call Sarah Palin on the phone and say "I'll give you $5,000 for your signature." Or $100,000 or $500,000. Done! So, millionaire, wherever you are, save yourself a few hundred thousand dollars and get the signature yourself.

    I think having Palin's signature on the xbox actually devalues it. That woman is an embarrassment.

    What I get a kick out of is he wants $1.1M for it, but he still asks for $15 to ship it. I'm thinkin' if I just shelled out $1.1M for an autographed Xbox he could fork over the shipping charges.
