that seller has beenusing this tactic for a long time. i applaud the model!

Bah. She bought those things. Nothing to applaud. :)

But yeah, you know, I love boobs as much as the next guy. More than the next guy, actually. More than most men combined, I think. But every time I see a big stupid rack on the thumbnail image of a Youtube video - which usually have nothing to do with the video itself with titles such as "Funniest TV news fails!" or "Strange facts about XYZ" or "Here's a video that I want everyone to look at, please click on it" - it's ALWAYS accompanied by millions and millions of views. Doesn't matter that the video likely has nothing to do with boobs. Doesn't matter that anyone viewing the video on their electronic device can use that same electronic device to uncover an entire universe of the most naked, savagely pornographic material imaginable. Doesn't matter that they're being played for suckers by manipulative sociopaths who are lazily exploiting the easiest male instincts that you can exploit in a man. There might be boobs - clothed boobs in a sexually neutral environment, sure, but boobs nonetheless. So they must click.

Alright, I'm done complaining. Now if you'll excuse me, I feel the need to play Super Mario 3 for some reason.

I dunno...judging by her build, I think those could very well be natural. D-cups are far from out of the ordinary. :)

*huggles*

Areala

It's possible, but I think that each breast is too clearly pronounced with too much space in the middle. They're wrapped in a pretty tight shirt and bra so I would expect them to blob together into a big beautiful mass of physical awesomeness rather than sturdily stand apart.

They could very well be real but Idunno, that ex of mine who became a stripper had D-cups and hers sure didn't look like that. :D

Meanwhile, a man would set the games on a desk and photograph them with nothing else in-frame, if possible. There is an image illustrating this dichotomy, but since all search sites have been cluttered with garbage, finding it is nigh unto impossible.

To be fair I've seen a few ebay listings where a guy frames his item - something like cookware or a teapot - neatly and tastefully in the middle of the frame, but then when you look closer you can see his grotesque naked form quite intentionally reflected in it.

But I guess that seems more like a prank than a manipulative attempt to win views...

I wish eBay didn't dictate the market on retro games. There are assholes out there trying to spike the market on the premium titles. Splatterhouse 3 for over $100? Why?!!! I played the hell out of it on the Genesis when I was a kid. It was always at rental stores. It's certainly not rare. And just because the game is good you have to slap on another 80 dollars? Same thing with Little Samson for the NES. Just a few years ago you could get it for literally 80 bucks. And now its $800 dollars on average. Even assholes are trying to sell it for that much with torn labels or marker writing on it. Brick and mortar retro gaming stores across the country are using eBay for their price point as well by going for the highest or average buy it now price. Would make more sense if they went with the sold listings. Screw eBay.

Ebay should never be used to determine prices. Any fool can pick a random price and try to sell things. They might be nowhere near a fair price. Sold listings might be a better choice but even then someone that lacks sense could overpay which ruins it for everyone else.
