    I'm about to put up 100+ of my games for sale, so I am looking around at various places to set pricing. I can almost understand the high prices for Final Fantasy VII (even the GH version), but why the hell is the US version of Monopoly/Boggle/Yahtzee/Battleship 4-pack (DS) going for so damn much? I was expecting to maybe get $10 for it, not $60... :eek:h:

    Anyone else have any pricing shockers?

    Final Fantasy VII has high prices because of hype. I mean the black label version sold almost 10 million copies, not to mention the PC version and the PS1 GH version (that has two versions, one with squaresoft logo and another with it replaced by square enix).

    As for the DS game, maybe it had a limited production run?

    I paid almost $80 for Einhander

    Copies of MVC2 go for between 50 and 200

    Good god, 80$? Does it really cost that much? Maybe I won't get it.

    My manual-less MVC2 Xbox sold for near 70$. Friend lost the manual.

    I was seriously pissed. He just kept saying he never had the manual. I really hate that shit, when people lose your stuff. Now I don't lend shit out.
