Gary Coleman's GameCube for sale on eBay

by Justin McElroy { Nov 9th 2007 at 12:55PM }

In case the recent video of Buzz Aldrin snuggling in zero gravity with a guy in a Mario costume wasn't enough proof, here's another piece of evidence that proves, given enough time, the house always wins. The Gamecube belonging to one Gary Coleman, star of the small screen, is now up for grabs on eBay. Yeah, the GameCube, the same system you can get for a song and an egg salad sandwich at your local GameStop.

Of course, this listing doesn't just teach us a valuable lesson about life. We also learn that at one point, Gary Coleman purchased Robots. So, you know, maybe getting rid of his GameCube was for the best.

[Thanks, Dustin]

Boy are you fast..

I hate you.

Cyro @ Nov 9th 2007 1:22PM

Joystiq, please remove that picture. Damm. That guy is really beat up man. Its just sad.

Gangsta Smurf @ Nov 9th 2007 3:01PM

I concur. LOL!

JL @ Nov 9th 2007 4:11PM

Whats with the chalk all over his hands?

Obie @ Nov 9th 2007 4:38PM

That is not chalk...he is either ashy or maybe it is blow.
Or maybe both! Poor guy.

I agree too, that picture is sad. :( After looking at some of the seller's past auctions, though, I don't think that this is really Gary Coleman selling his Gamecube. As others have already suggested, it's probably someone who got Gary to sign a GCN and some games.

Geez and did the signing take place in a motel room or something? I think I see a bed behind Gary there! And is that a passport to the right of his arm in the pic?

lol

TomCo @ Nov 9th 2007 1:02PM

The listing is a bit strange.

Is this Gary Coleman selling his gamecube personally, some guy selling it on his behalf, or is it some weirdo who got Gary Coleman to sign all of his gamecube stuff before putting it up on ebay?

RudyHuxtable @ Nov 9th 2007 1:03PM

Someone should really make sure he uses his Neutrogena before he gets photographed.

Neon Jebus @ Nov 9th 2007 1:03PM

I hear his radio ads for those Pay Day Loan type places. Someone give the guy some money before he gets someone else to get a loan at 250% interest.

Come on he made you giggle when you were a kid! You can't put a price on that! But you can try!

Vegeta (aka Ska Oreo) @ Nov 9th 2007 1:05PM

Yeah I feel kinda bad for him though. He gets shitted on on a daily basis. Give the guy an acting job or something.

And god damn put some lotion on!!!

Jtenma @ Nov 9th 2007 1:13PM

LOL they need to drop his ass in some jergens....

FOXHOUND @ Nov 9th 2007 1:14PM

Man, he's one ashy mofo... x_o
Ashy Larry > Gary Coleman (barely)

rdj75 @ Nov 9th 2007 2:09PM

As soon as I saw that picture Ashey Larry was the very first thing to come to mind. +1 for you my good man, but I would have to go Ashey Larry < Gary Coldman (barely)

hypersauce @ Nov 9th 2007 1:14PM

Hey, lay off. He's playing Ashy Larry in the upcoming movie.

FOXHOUND @ Nov 9th 2007 1:15PM

LOL I just posted about that myself... don't get that shiz on the d00d's DS... ha ha

FOXHOUND @ Nov 9th 2007 1:16PM

what's with the reply system today? blahhhh

Jtenma @ Nov 9th 2007 1:18PM

I mean..my GOD..look at those hands. Looks like he walks with his hands...in gravel.

cybereality @ Nov 9th 2007 1:30PM

Either that or he just went Scarface of a pile of yayo.

Kazi @ Nov 9th 2007 1:18PM

I feel sorry for some of those hasbeens, then I remember I'm struggling financially through college and curse at them for being able to sell an old system with their name on it for stupid prices.

exwingzero @ Nov 9th 2007 1:22PM

I bet he created another ebay account to drive the price up...

kinshadow @ Nov 9th 2007 1:25PM

What you talkin' about Joystiq?!

JodyAnthony @ Nov 9th 2007 1:35PM

haha I cant believe it took this long!

Blazur @ Nov 9th 2007 1:30PM

My god if you're gonna pose for a picture at least put some damn lotion on. And learn to spell 'you're' properly.

Mischa @ Nov 10th 2007 8:53AM

your gay

NATO_Duke @ Nov 9th 2007 1:48PM

I dont know what's more sad,selling this on ebay...or that the current price is $510.

flcl @ Nov 9th 2007 1:58PM

I honestly didn't know anyone still cared about Gary Coleman.

andyg8180 @ Nov 9th 2007 2:02PM

ASHY!!!

i wonder if he's ever heard of lotion!!

Martin @ Nov 9th 2007 2:10PM

What is up (with that listing)? It's almost too painful (to read). The guy who wrote it should lay off the parenthesis ('cause they're unnecessary).

Roy @ Nov 9th 2007 2:16PM

I believe there is a part in Avenue Q where Kate monster says to the Gary Coleman character, "And Gary, you keep selling your possessions on eBay." "Yes, I do!"

Life imitating art imitating life....

Donald @ Nov 9th 2007 4:33PM

The Internet is for porn...

Grant @ Nov 9th 2007 2:48PM

It's a sad sad thing when celebs need to try and use whatever pull they still have with their name to sell their useless crap for drugs.

jesus_bon_jovi @ Nov 10th 2007 8:08AM

I thought he had some sort of model train addiction

spartan 6453 @ Nov 9th 2007 2:53PM

He looks more like Ashy Larry.

Dave Silva @ Nov 9th 2007 3:42PM

Dude, he hasn't aged gracefully. :\

David @ Nov 9th 2007 4:06PM

After Buzz Aldrin and Gary Coleman, I hope for more Nintendo news from celebrities who has punched people in the face! Come on, Sean "Diddy" Combs!

J @ Nov 9th 2007 4:16PM

Next up, going from ashy to classy! I'm rich, beyotch!

Obie @ Nov 9th 2007 4:39PM

Ashy Gary > Ashy Larry.

Zorink @ Nov 9th 2007 4:50PM

That picture is kind of depressing.

angryguy77 @ Nov 9th 2007 4:58PM

I think hes selling it so he can hire a maid.

WiNG @ Nov 9th 2007 5:41PM

My gf and I just saw Avenue Q, (in case you don't know it's a play mocking Sesame Street), and Gary Coleman is a character. The lady who plays him basically makes him out to be a nice guy but the biggest loser on Earth.

Yeah and there are jokes about how he sells his stuff on eBay, oh man. We were actually talking about feeling bad for him 10 minutes ago, and now I read this. What a shame.
