    Default Up for bid...

    Official Brady Games Strategy Guide

    There are 23 bids on the item and it's going for $91.00. For the infamous Brady Guide. THE BRADY GUIDE!

    This is either a fake or people are just insane. But I still got a good laugh out of it.

    Perhaps with so many players burning the guide out of spite and disgust, it resulted in this thing becoming a Collector's item.

    I think someone looked at the buyer/seller list and found that it was the same 3 people with no feedback over and over.

    There's an FFXI in-joke in this thread, and I don't think you quite got it.

    Yes... the joke being that this guide is utterly useless and full of horrible misinformation that screws up the game by giving bad advice to beginners and skewing the perceptions of the whole community. This guide has done irreperable harm to the game being as the game is influenced by those that play it and thus is influenced by their influences.

    The fact that someone would pay more than 10 cents for this book (and only then it would it be useful as cheap paper to start a fire with) is ludicrous.

    I'm amazed at the kind of crap people buy on EBay...

    But what's even more amazing is that the starting bid was only $4 and it jumped all the way to $91. And most of the bids came from one person!? Sheesh...
