whats a fair price for cotton?
« on: January 27, 2012, 07:53:27 PM »
I really want to pick this one up. I see it going for stupid prices on Ebay. I know someone who is selling it for $125. Is that to much? Should i just try and find a Japanese copy instead?

Yeah, what he said.  Though 125.00 is not a bad price for this game, seeing as it has been going for crazy amounts lately.  But seriously, the only difference in the two versions is the US version leaves out the narration.  You can select your language for the text.

It used to fetch $75 until late last year.

If you want the us version and it includes case and manual, I'd jump all over that.

You can try making an offer, but I doubt he'll go under $200 for it.


Over 400.00??  Lol!!!   

I know I balk at a lot of the "holy grail" collector prices that show up on ebay, but I just don't think these old games are worth what some of these sellers think they are worth.  I refuse to make someone's mortgage or car payment over a 15 year old video game.  To each his own though....

I paid $75 for my U.S. copy and felt it was a pretty fair price.  The PCE suggestion is a good one, but in all honesty, $125 doesn't sound like too much of a gouge at the moment.

$75 is a fair price but $125? jesus no!!
got mine in a trade a few years back and $50 to $70 was my price range if i had to buy.

I wonder if i got into the turbo scene later if i would consider prices that i find high today on the fair side?... When you see the other side of prices which was not so long ago i get right bitter on the so called fair prices of today.<<shrugs>>
