    Then there are the copy and paste people who don't know anything about model numbers, polluting my eBay searches:

    I don't like that. Especially when you see consoles listed as imports who aren't. It makes PAL versions appear less rare in USA than reality. Other stuff is say, finding Genesis systems with the title saying Mega Drive.

    Yeah- It appears someone once upon a time (I'm guessing about 2 years ago from when I first started seeing them) listed a debug, only to have someone selling a retail use ebay's oh so handy (and rubbish) "sell one like this" feature that will copy EVERYTHING from that listing-- from there, they just won't stop popping up.

    Hexigon: What's funny about that is that the "MIB" typo instead of "NIB" (new in box). Exactly one MIB, as in Men In Black, PS1 exists, and it really would be worth $1,000. =)

    The sad thing is, it isn't hard to find out what a real CD-i prototype looks like. I think images of SMWW exist, along with the two protos I owned.

    Oh yeah that's true, but a new in box Playstation just isn't worth 1K. :p
