    If you can't find it in stores easily, it's rare. But a 3DS XL is not worth $350.

    Is it worth getting just to have as a rare item?

    Not at that price. Plus you'll have to store that around for such a long time before it becomes a wanted item.

    It's pokemon, it might be worth more in 25 years lol.

    That's a decent price but it won't play us games and once you open it it loses 60% of the value.

    ^this.


    Words of wisdom. Unless you plan to stash it away and forget about it, it's useless to buy something that may have a chance at being rare.

    Looks like a us box to me. I don't see the PEGI rating logo.

    Ah ok, my eyes not so good, thought it was a LL.

    Then if it's american, just go to a pokemon / nintendo store and buy one? That's a hell of a markup

    True. Well im probably going to buy the $200 one anyways. Never owned a 3DS before. Liked the DS and Gameboy advance consoles.

    It's probably a reseller who wanted to grab a hot item then resell for quick profit. Happened at PS2, XBox, Wii, etc launch day. However Pikachu edition didn't sell out in my area and they aren't exactly hot since Easter had already passed and the next major holiday is months away.

    PS he's oh about 3 hours drive from where I live if I wanted to go over and beat him up for trying to resell for profit.
