(from a fact list found 1st November 2005)

This dedicated banner is a completely bad quality. Why on land the salesperson fixed to put "not xbox nintendo pc sega" in the honour I do not cognise.

Does he mull over that a future XBox payer will all of a sudden grain duty-bound to buy a crippled for other console?

The simply corollary of this is that a infinite digit of soon-to-be bidders will skip this rummage sale.

The vendor has overlooked the certainty that somebody probing for "getaway PlayStation 2" will woman his rummage sale. And relations questioning for that term are sounding for his product!

A greater honour would be:
