Oct 3 2009It's On eBay: A Sarah Palin Signed XBox 360
Want an XBox 360 signed by Sarah Palin? Me neither. But if you still want to go and blow a cool $1.1 million on one, congratulation, you're an idiot. Also, what's your home address?
The infamous Sarah Palin XBOX 360 was autographed at the governors picnic on July 24, 2009, in Wasilla, Alaska, just two days before her resignation as governor of that state. You can own this 60GB, perfect-condition, one-of-a-kind item before her expected run for president of the United States of America in 2012.
When the governors picnic took place, there were hordes of people trying to see her, but I pushed my way through the crowd to the front of the line. When I was in front of Sarah Palin, I told her that I had traveled three days to see her and asked her to sign my Xbox360. She said it was the most extravagant thing she had ever been asked to sign. I shook her hand, removed myself from the crowd, and then I packed up my Xbox360 and headed home. It was one of the greatest thrills of my life to have watched Sarah Palin on CNN, SNL, Youtube, and then to see her right in front of me.
What the hell's the matter with this guy? Reminds me of all the idiots trying to sell Wii's for $1 million the week before Christmas. Just saying, I wouldn't even pay that for a console signed by Princess Peach AND Zelda. I would pay that for one signed by The Geekologie Writer though. Contact me for more info.
Hit the jump for a picture of Palin signing it.
Thanks to Aisha, who has a NES signed by Shigeru Miyamoto, which makes her better than you.

Xbox 360- Supported by Sarah Palin. If this isn't proof that the 360 sucks, I don't know what could be.

Thanks, but no thanks. That is unless, of course, I can see Russia from my login screen?

I got an Atari signed by Mussolini, does it counts???
6. I dont get it - October 3, 2009 8:04 PM
*makes a jacking-off motion with his hand* 1.1 million for a regular old x-box with a signature on it? Yeah, good luck with that one buddy
What's the fascination with this woman? Someone running for the presidential office shouldn't be an "everyday" person that people can relate to but rather they should be more of an intellectual with a vision that sets them apart from everyone else. If she wins, we'll all be worse off than when Bush was president.
7. Then again - October 3, 2009 8:05 PM
Then again, i guess hitler had a vision different from everyone else. Ah well, we're all screwed
8. _me - October 3, 2009 8:21 PM
I would buy it if:
A) Of course I'd need to have that crap ton of money to piss away first.
B) The proceeds would go to a worthy cause.
C) If I could smash it on live TV as it appeared at my doorstep.
9. Zane - October 3, 2009 8:27 PM
Wow. He's trying to get $1.1 Million for it and he is charging for shipping? I'd think that if you're spending $1.1 Million on something, especially something barely worth the original retail sale price, that he could at least ship it for free.
10. Satoshi - October 3, 2009 8:28 PM
Who the hell is Sarah Palin?
Really useless and meaningless to us who are not from the United States.
11. HAHA FAIL - October 3, 2009 9:19 PM
Fail + Fail = Double Fail
12. HAHA FAIL - October 3, 2009 9:20 PM
@10
Palin is why Obama is president of the U.S. btw
13. akjsnxivcb - October 3, 2009 9:23 PM
That guy should wash off that bad graffiti off of his Xbox if he wants to get a decent price for it.
14. ciao - October 3, 2009 9:28 PM
*rolls out red carpet for Daisy*
15. arakuto - October 3, 2009 9:53 PM
if palin becomes president i am leaving this country...
what happens if the 360 gets RROD and they have to get a new one? should've gone with a reliable ps3
16. Shelley - October 3, 2009 10:01 PM
If it was so important for him to get it signed, why is he selling it?
17. fsiobnfiog - October 3, 2009 10:02 PM
@15 if you get the RROD you can always wrap the xbox in towels.
Only microsoft can come up with a solution like that, here I am with my super reliable PS3 missing all the fun of wrapping a xbox in a towel.
note: I'm not a PS3 fanboy, I like xbox 360 I just think its plagued with bad reliability and stupid things like the RROD.
18. Sasha Purin - October 3, 2009 10:14 PM
I say we should make fake eBay accounts and bid the shit out of it.
19. noidkiller - October 3, 2009 10:46 PM
It's not even free shipping!
20. Nick Sydney - October 3, 2009 11:11 PM
O.o
WTF?
how is it the most extravagant thing she's ever signed?
i guess the question there is how is an Xbox extravagant
21. GoDless Z? - October 3, 2009 11:57 PM
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA i love the fact that not only does this moron ask a retarded amount, but he's STILL charging shipping on top of that. HAHAHAHAHAHA
it's like an ugly fat person saying, "hey, for an absurd amount of money, ill let you get done in the rear by ME, oh and you have to buy me cigarettes after too"
if this thing sells. . . . i lose faith in humanity and hope 2012 really is the end of existence
22. LilDoc - October 4, 2009 12:03 AM
Damn, GW. You USE to be cool... *PEW PEW* on you!
23. 2funny - October 4, 2009 2:09 AM
I'm not interested unless it has a recording of William Shatner reciting her resignation speech as a Poem - priceless
24. c45 - October 4, 2009 3:07 AM
why would anyone buy that. it will definitely rrod in the future, and will be a huge wast of money.
25. Rob - October 4, 2009 3:16 AM
What a coincidence... I wanna play with both of those things. What a convenient package. Luckily for Xbox it won't cost them their pile of gold their sitting on top of in contrast to Palin costing McCain the presidency.
26. I'm Nailin' Palin - October 4, 2009 3:44 AM
It's the Chinese's fault for shitty Xbox 360 manufacturing. Probably Microsoft's for outsourcing there. You could always just remove the whole plastic casing and put it on another console. It would be funny if someone paid that amount for it and had to send it in and told them it was special and not to clean it, like that kid who has the Rooster Teeth one, and they went ahead and cleaned it anyway. Whoever bought it would have a super clean 1,1 million 360. And @#3 That's the best argument in the 360/PS3 debate yet. and if Palin does by some ridiculous reason obtain the presidency, which I don't even see how she'd got on the ballots as Stephen Colbert would be a better candidate, I would start a super crazy riot and shit in Alaska. And then move to Iraq.

Damn. When I met George Bush a few years ago I should have asked him to sign my GameCube.
Not sure why people are so caught up on Sarah Palin not being the brightest bulb in the box. Have you ever actually met an intelligent politician? I certainly wouldn't want her in-charge of things though, but sadly I must say that I think she's much smarter than our current vice president. Which scares the crap out of me.
28. Geekolojew - October 4, 2009 7:56 AM
Must See!!!

the guy's pretty f smart
but so is my mum, she can peel apple skins with a knife without cutting her fingers open
30. Kyster - October 4, 2009 8:58 AM
Why do anybody want to own anything she's signed?
31. jaja - October 4, 2009 9:10 AM
@11 Fail + Fail = 2Fail actually.
Learn algebra bitch.
32. Bender - October 4, 2009 10:38 AM
@31 Nice try but actually Fail x Fail = 2Fail. Not Fail + Fail. Learn algebra bitch.
33. snoe - October 4, 2009 11:39 AM
@32 lol wouldn't Fail x Fail = Fail to the 2nd power or Fail Squared,
i think #31 was more correct then you are.
34. Scooper - October 4, 2009 12:24 PM
Yes it would be 2Fail not Fail^2. So double fail is correct.
35. Matt - October 4, 2009 2:00 PM
I cant believe hes now charging 1.1Mill and no bids! what a surprise
36. Kaz - October 4, 2009 4:31 PM
For 1,100,000 you could get a private dance from Sarah Palin in the Champaign room. And get more then your Xbox signed, what an idiot.
37. SomeoneFromRVB - October 4, 2009 4:53 PM
The guy with the 360 looks like a douche.
38. Iris - October 4, 2009 5:04 PM
I want something signed by gw!
Not and Xbox though
39. Cranberry - October 4, 2009 5:31 PM
Shipping: $15.00Standard Flat Rate Shipping Service
Lmao
40. Crazy Cal - October 4, 2009 6:05 PM
Yeah, because EVERYONE wants to pay over 1,000,000 dollars for a videogame console that is sold for 300 dollars just because it was signed by one of America's biggest retards.
Gotta love the internet.
41. Daisy - October 4, 2009 6:50 PM
FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Nevr Back Down where Max was trying to kill a politician he believed was going to be another Hitler. Max screwed up the assasination attempt, but the politician hid behind a baby, ruining his future in politics.
42. fabio - October 4, 2009 7:25 PM
it is literally more cost effective to buy a 360, wait til palin does an inevitable promotional event, get a round trip ticket to alaska, and get her to sign it then.
hell, buy three or four 360s. and a ps3. and a wii. and a psp. and someone elses child. and a car. and like, 500,000 dollars worth of other crap
43. yoyo - October 4, 2009 8:12 PM
It's funny how everyone thinks this guy is for real. He probably doesn't want to sell it, just wants to show off that he has something unique signed. If someone was dumb enough to buy it, then he gets a cool million and is an astute businessman. Also, those people that rip on Palin 9 times out of ten can't give specific reasons, other than that she's a conservative woman, which a "progressive" liberal finds appalling. More power to the guy, if you don't want it, then why give a (*&^ about it?
44. mazza - October 4, 2009 9:44 PM
what a fail douchebag, no-ones gonna buy that fail box 360
45. Tomato - October 5, 2009 4:38 AM
2(√(fail^2 x fail^2))/fail = what?
46. Jaded Icon - October 5, 2009 9:22 AM
@ 43
Agreed. I don't hear too many of these guys ripping on Biden for being a moron and he's actually our VP. I have an idea, quit parroting Hollywood and find out for yourself if the person deserves your scorn or not.
47. che-che - October 5, 2009 11:32 AM
OLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
48. bush limbuh - October 5, 2009 1:49 PM
Does it come with the xbox game where you get to play as palin and not actually be any good at anything. i heard that you can unlock hidden characters such as her daughter who gets knocked up or her husband who can't read.
49. Blastphemer - October 5, 2009 3:37 PM

Possible answers???:
1.) 42

50. onehundredaire - October 5, 2009 4:00 PM
