Prank by OSG...
Starting Info: OSG placed a classfied ad with a well-done phony NES game "Dragon Wing" which can be found here: http://www.classifieds2000.com/cgi-cls/ad.exe?partner=c2k&path=Collectibles~GamesAndToys~VideoGames~Details&recordid=1528041&hasphoto=1&keywordqueryid=250460121&titlesummary=title
Now onward to the prank..
I'd like to buy this game if you still have it. Would you be willing to ship
to Ca? I'll cover shipping costs of course. Let me know.
Thanks,
Javier
Dear Javier,
I do still have a copy of Dragon's Wing. Unfortunately, I can not send this game in the mail due to the fact that the part of Delaware I live in has no postal service. You see, I live in a very secluded part of town. I also cannot drive to the closest postal office, because my Perole Officer will shoot me if I do. Thank you for your time.

Ronald,
What if I send you a self-addressed and prepaid package along to just drop at
your mailbox? The postman can pick it up from there. Will that work? By the
way, have any other nes games for sale? I'm trying to get some of my old
favorites. I remember renting this game from my local video store.
Thanks again,
Javier.
Dear Javier,
As I had said before, the postal system does not work here. I'm glad you can remember this fine game, though. It was one of my favorites as a kid, but I've grown out of such things. Do you remember the secret room in level 3? That was one of the most clever tricks in a NES game ever.

I'm interested in buying the nes game but am wondering why you have pick up
only? Are you unable to ship things from were you live? If I bought the game I
would be willing to send you a box that was self addressed and postage paid.
Well get back to me, thanks.
Dear Anonymos,
I cannot send this via mail because I am a crack baby, and can barely move. You have to come to my house, and pick it up yourself. You'd have to try to come by when my mom's unconcious though, because she'll tie you up and smack you with a vaccum cleaner until you bleed. Thank you for your time.
