This is the strangest auction the eBay-omnipotent staff at GameSniped found so far and it doesn’t include any prototype games. Just Rock Band, Guitar Hero III and oh… a woman dressed in a skimpy Santa outfit hand delivering the goods. Whoever wins the auction gets all of the above plus photo opportunities with Chloe, the model in the photo.
On a purely entrepreneurial level, the premise is a clever gambit with one possible flaw. The seller will have Chloe deliver the contents anywhere in the USA. That includes Hawaii and Alaska, right? If you factor in the cost of a plane ticket, the price of the games and compensation for the model this auction has to sell for a pretty penny over retail for the seller to make a profit. I won’t be surprised if it does either, sex sells. The same seller has a similar auction too with Halo 3, Rock Band and a Suicide Girl, if you prefer brunettes or shooting things.
