    What really needs to happen is someone needs to beat the guy willing to spend over nine grand for a Video Game.

    Also, in before over 9,000.

    Someone needs to beat the man over the head with a blunt object and point out that Rock Band is much the better game...Selling Guitar Hero is more like a reward.

    So why are we talking shit to the Father? He just made like 8,900 dollars.

    Seems to me we should be choking out the buyer rather than the seller.

    Plus, I support delinquent pot smokers, in all forms.

    What on earth would make you spend that much on a game. And GH is awesome imho, they have some great songs on it.

    1. You have money.
    2. You really want the game that bad.
    3. ???
    4. Profit

    It's like the first High-End-Accounts of popular Onlinegames which are available on eBay. They sell for thousands of dollars. In Everquest one of the early Highlevel-Chars sold for over 10k Dollars, because the son of a rich family from Saudi-Arabia wanted to play the game without investing too much of his own precious time in leveling the character.

    The dad was the one who was buying GHIII.

    And the game is awesome, even if I probably look pretty stupid while playing it. ;)

    Wait, what? I took the idea that the dad sold it after buying it for the regular price since his son smoked pot, not that he bought it for $9,100 because his son smoked pot.

    Or did you mean something different entirely?

    Waitaminute... so you're telling me that the wife put the game one Ebay to teach her son a lesson for smoking pot, and the husband proceeds to buy it because he knows that his kid wants the game? Not only that, but the husband drops 9100 dollars, to his own family, admittedly, although whether or not he knew that at the time could be questioned, in order to go against his wife's wishes and make his kid happy? This is... fairly retarded to say the least. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, however.

    EDIT: Nevermind. I can't seem to read. I'm not sure what's wrong here, however. The dad was the one selling the game, after he bought it at retail price. I see no problem here; the dad just made $9000. If anything, he should be congratulated. Whoever bought the game is retarded, however.
