Damn, you really can buy just about anything on eBay. Today there's a whole freakin' videogame store on the website, priced now at $30,000. So what does your $30k buy? You get either the active store, located in Grand Junction, Colorado, or its inventory. The store has thousands of games for every system as well as accessories, controllers and the shelves and dispalys to sell them on. Apparently there's over $60,000 worth of inventory.
The seller says the Buy It Now price gets you free delivery within 750 miles.
Naturally I'd want to see an inventory list before I plunked down $30,000, but I bet someone bites before it's all over.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
Wow.
I'm sure that with purchase of the store comes all of the bills and nonsense that go along with it. But I agree with Dale who wrote, "I'd want to see an inventory list" -- same.
That store could be full of CRAP and you'd never know!
... But there could be some rich gamer who probably doesn't even care and will throw money down regardless.
This could be sick. SICK I TELL YOU

Eventually push it out to other states, and make it a real force. It's a fantastic idea to get started, and would beat the hell out of any other gaming site's ideas.
I am all for that idea.

Gamestop would be crapping their pants.

Hmm.....
DO IT!
