It's a sellers market, sadly.

Wow if it's that high now wait till after Xmas.

I'm looking for the spine card for my copy.  I remember missing out on a CIB copy with spine card a few years ago on eBay for $75.  Boy how times have changed.

Here, you can join an already in progress discussion on Dracula X reaching $200 thanks to all those generous big-spenders lurking on eBay.

Wasn't Dracula X in the $200-$300 range about 15 years ago?

It was about that much if you bought a two-pack.  :mrgreen:

It was $79.99 in the late 90's, that's how it started out, and that's what I paid for it new +$5 for shipping.

Well, I remember seeing it go for $200 in the early to early-mid 2000's. Then it dropped back down (not sure when). Maybe $300 is a bit of a stretch, but a complete copy for $200 is what I remembered. Specifically ebay, because I had traded mine with a friend and wanted to buy another copy. It was around that time that people (outside of the PCE scene) were discovering the game and Duo's could still be had for cheap(er).

Well, as has been stated about ten thousand times on this forum, just because someone payed $300 for something on eBay doesn't mean anyone else ever has or will again.

I'm not a price watcher, but I sorta know what's going on, and IIRC Drac X was, random idiocy aside, a sub $100 game from its inception until the current collectard boom, the last eight years max, probably the last three.
