What was the worst deal you've ever made?

[titansfan098]

Mine was when I traded my Blue Ipod Mini and my $50 sony earbuds for a generic stick of 256mb PC2100 DDRRAM a week ago...

WTF?

Let me know if you have any other expensive stuff you want to get rid of. I've got plenty of 2100 DDR RAM around!

 

[titansfan098]

Lol, sorry, but I don't. I was desperate because my dad was pissed at me for not having my computer running (he spent about $6-700 on some parts in it) and I wanted to get it running ASAP.

A dead trout would be too quick and painless....we need to break out the herring on this one.

You're right, I am 15.

Don't get me wrong, I know that the Ipod was worth 10x more than the RAM, but as I said, I was desperate to get my computer running as soon as possible. It's not like I thought the deal was even lol.

 

[Ketteringo]

You must be retarded.

You gave away $300 worth of stuff (that your parents probably bought you) in exchange for $50 worth of stuff, all to save a 15 minute trip to the store. Good work.

have done what sort of stupid deals?

 

[jcovercash]

Not a stupid trade but a really good upgrade trade story...


I once traded a $500 computer and $300 LCD for some items, and went through 3 trades with these items withen a matter of two weeks.

I ended up having a $1500 Computer $500 Moniter and $600 Cash just because I traded with 3 people who really wanted my items and They kept upgrading me. LOL So I ended up with a free $1000 upgrade, a 4" bigger Moniter (17" to 21"), and $600 cash to boot

Actually, I purchased one. From my Dad (he bought about 45 of them when our Best Buy got some in stock, and we resold them on eBay for a nice profit ), but I still purchased it with MY money that I earned.

Second, I cannot drive, and the store is about 30 minutes from here.

Third, I did not have the cash to purchase it at that time.

Holy sh!t man why didn't you try to sell the iPod in FS/FT first??!! sorry to say it but DAMN you're a retard...

 

[titansfan098]

*Cough* To repeat, I needed the RAM ASAP or else my dad would've been thoroughly pissed at me. I was at my freind's house and he happened to have an extra stick, so we did the trade.

 

[Trey22]

Patience is a virtue... oh, and sometimes it keeps you from getting cornholed like you did.

 

[jyates]

I think those $29.95 cabins that I bought on the Titantic were probably the worst
deal I've made lately.

They didn't tell me that they leaked so badly.........

You have some "nice" friends. I would have just lent you the stick until you had money to pay me for it.

He's an ass. But he's the only person that I know that knows sh!t about computers, so it was take it or leave it
