From $3.5 million fake Pokémon card cases to $35,000 counterfeit Neo Geo cartridges, how far would you go before realizing you’ve been scammed? In this episode, we dive into five of the most absurd, high-stakes retro video game and collecting scams that completely rocked eBay and the gaming community.
We unpack the infamous Logan Paul $3.5M G.I. Joe Pokémon box disaster, the £450 Xbox One photo listing trick, Enrico Ricciardi’s massive big-box PC game forgery scandal, the mythic US Aero Fighters 3 Neo Geo cart hoax, and a wild retail-flipping scheme that turned stores upside down.
