Angry Father Sells Wii Game For $10,000
Instead of giving his son a lump of coal for being naughty, this father sold the present. Never fear, the son will still be getting a present for Christmas, though he probably won't like it.
A Canadian man sold the hard-to-find Guitar Hero III video game he had bought his son for Christmas, which cost $103 (US $90), after catching his son smoking Marijuana. He sold it to an Australian gentleman for $10,420 (US $9,100).
The sale took place after the father spent two weeks hunting down the game for the Nintendo Wii.
"So I was so relieved in that I had finally got the Holy Grail of Christmas presents pretty much just in the nick of time. I couldn't wait to spread the jubilance to my son," the father wrote on the eBay website.
"Then, yesterday, I came home from work early and what do I find? My innocent little boy smoking pot in the back yard with two of his delinquent friends."
The father, who is a school teacher and kept his identity private, said he sold the coveted video game to punish his son and discourage him from smoking marijuana.
"I am still considering getting him a game for his Nintendo. Maybe something like Barbie as the Island Princess or Dancing with the Stars ... I know he will just love them," the father said.
