The Big Twofer!
Wherein The Gord theorizes about sharks.
“I’d like to trade these two games in for Final Fantasy III.”
“Uhm, no.”
“Why not! You’re getting two newer games for that one.”
(note: he was trying to trade in Final Fantasy VII and VIII)
“Because they sell new for a combined total of $50. And Final Fantasy III is more than $100.”
“You’re getting two for one.”
“No, you’re getting $25 in credit.”
“I’m not going to buy it then.”
“I am forced to conclude you are the master of the obvious. May others take heed of your wisdom.”
“Why won’t you sell it to me cheap!”
“Because parts 7 and 8 sold more than a million copies in North America each, and they are on the Sony budget label program so I can still get them new. Anyone who wants one can buy one for cheap. As for Final Fantasy 3, they only made eight copies, and they were all accidentally shipped to a clothing store in Utah that occasionally sells one when they find the box.”
