Reading these posts at work are so much fun!  None of the pictures or videos show up on my screen, it's just a blank spot.  So I have to guess at what you are talking about! 

Let's see...drink it...are we talking about the Nuka Cola?

Haha, yeah, it's Nuka Cola.  Rayne posted about it in the Fallout 4 thread, but it sounds like it'll be hell to get one bottle if you actually want one. They're going for $50-150 per BOTTLE on eBay...  :'(

Have some listings actually sold for that much already or is it just a bunch of idiots trying to resell them for that much?

Ok, so $100 tops for a bottle so far, though folks are trying to sell for more atm...



$50 for a bottle is still too much for me, but I'm not a diehard Fallout fan...

The people actually buying those listings are just as much a part of the problem as the scalpers.

Q: Is this just a repackaged version of Jones Berry Lemomade? It seems like it.   

A: Yes, it is Berry Lemonade but its the labeling that is Fallout-related. They did not create a new flavor, they used an existing one that resembles Nuka Cola Quantum in the game as best as they could. The packaging is what is exclusive to promote the game, not the actual flavor inside. 

For those who do not know, I pulled this quote directly from targets online store

Now I do not need to go out and buy the quantum for ridiculous prices online as it is literally the exact thing you will get if you buy the berry lemonade from jones.

Now I just want to know everyones opinion on this stupid idea that i will probably never do anyway. What does everyone think about someone creating a fake e-bay account and buying/bidding up every scapers post of certain items like this to an amount that no human will ever pay for all instances of it and obviously not pay for it. for example bidding every quantum up to $5000 just to give scalpers a hard time.

It's hard to blame people for wanting something that's so limited.

Well, damn it. I just re-read my invoice and for some reason they shipped the item to my old house. Even though I changed my mailing/billing info in August, they still shipped it to the wrong place. I really hope my landlord does not get ahold of it. We didn't leave on the greatest terms.

Let the post office know.  Did you not leave a forwarding address?

Not to change the subject from the Nuka-cola ... but yeah I did leave a forwarding address. Ive been trying to deal with the post office all day about it and its been miserable.

I swung by the local Target to see if they still happened to have any Nuka Cola and was told that their shipment didn't come in. I'm thinking that's code for "our employees bought them all before they made it out of the back room." At least it's not as bad as the Pepsi Perfect fiasco.
