Have you tried turning the worldwide option on? Sometimes other listings from different countries will pop up when this option is chosen.

I always click that option, but it's not necessary for this one (same country).

I'm definitely going to look into getting an everdrive to play these rare titles on my system.

You might have some difficulty playing CD titles on an everdrive...

CD burners work well for that problem.

Only if you know how :-)

Or are able to follow simple instructions.  It's really not that hard; even I can do it.

You know it's funny, I saw those completed listings that guy had sold, the Terraforming and Super Air Zonk for $750 each on ebay just this weekend, and WOW, but oddly enough he accepted my $50 offer for Mystic Formula which I will be glad to have back in my collection.

Every time i see this thread in the 'unread' list, i think it says "rare titties up on ebay".

such disappoint...

It does say that, though? If you look hard enough...

Both of the those sellers were just plain looking for the highest buck... I contacted them both and asked if they had others to sell. Both responded with now you are looking for a break huh? That's ok though, let them pay the e-bay fees... There is another seller though who has alot less feedback but his items in mint condition... His prices however, not so much....

So you weren't looking for a break? Not even a go before listings? That's why you contacted them, just to have the same footing as any bidder?

I contacted them to ask if they had others the might be willing to list before the went up on e-bay. If I could have worked a deal and they saved on fees then great. I was only trying to get a crack at them before open market. Does not mean that I would not be willing to pay a fair price? No, I would have. However a price beyond e-bay norms is not a fair price.
