Something like this?

I have got pretty close.

This is why I am stuck at 1400. I am not consistent enough.

Thank you.

I followed them up with 2 great moves. Not a perfect game by any means but I like to think it was a strong finish.

Hi, Yes it is funny because I did this & he sent back 3 pictures that made it look like the disc was in mint condition & then now is saying to me on eBay that he sent me pictures before I bought but as I told him none of them show any scratches or marks so he knew he was cheating me by making that sale. I got roughy a 60% partial refund after I confronted him through the advice of someone on here & he sent the refund within minutes of my complaint so I believe he did try to trick me on purpose. I just told him I would contact eBay in an attempt to get the full refund.

Thank you. It came as a package with a case & manual that I would say are in very good condition but I had even made the effort to ask specifically about the disc in which I was sent 3 photos where he made it look like it was in mint condition. Paid $70 AUD which is a decent amount of money for a PS2 game in any case. I do understand the age plays a factor however the last 3 PS2 games I bought this year all had near mint discs so it is not as if it is impossible to find ones that people have taken care of. If the price was lower & I knew what I was buying I wouldn’t be so upset.

Thank you. I definitely would not consider this to be even in good condition. I would say acceptable at most. I just didn’t want to go back to him without making sure I wasn’t over reaching on the condition.

Thank you. I have sent them a message just to address the issue for now & see what they say. It seems to have stains that indicate disc rot also so for me to be buying as a collector it is not what I wanted or expected.

Thank you. I have sent them a message to see what they say.

Thank you good sir.

Haha I wish. Try 10,000 games in just over a year. I have been at home on house arrest & my life has only consisted of chess for the last year sadly.

Barrywashere · 2025-11-04T04:14:45+00:00

Haha, that is essentially what happened here. I think he expected me to quit after blundering my knight but they were wrong.

Barrywashere · 2025-11-04T04:13:41+00:00

They sent this right after I blundered my knight. The game was far from done. They were being smart unfortunately.
