    Ebay turned to shit years ago....


    99% of it are BIN offers from dealers instead of actual auctions.


    they should rename it to BIN.com and be done with it. since they want to go where Amazon is...

    Reminds me of when I got my Ocarina of Time sealed v1.0 coy for ~$8. Instead of listing it under video games, it was under collectibles :D

    i dont see why people worry about how much something they collected has sold for recintly
    collecting ISN'T for investment its for ENJOYMENT

    besides that markets fluctuate so quit bellyaching when someone got something for cheaper then you did
    or like the idiots who say sealed games destroy enjoyability they need to chill out also
    a sealed collection just means you own every game in its best form and you enjoy having them

    games were NEVER an investment hell ide pay $50k for stadem events just so i could play it
    hell even NWC ide get it to play the hell out of

    Personally I'd never pay $200, let alone $50, for some Sega Rally game on nGauge. That just demonstrates what most people already feel - value is in the eye of the beholder. If the OP felt like he had to pay $200 bucks to secure what he wanted, then all the power to him. Just don't explode on people when others decided to dump items they don't think are that valuable.

    The same thing happened to MercadoLivre. It was never really that good, but anything right now is considered "RARE", even if it's destroyed to pieces.

    This, there is no reason to get upset because something sold cheaper than you paid. We have all been there
