My balls, my sack, my mangina and my crack.
what is...nulls christmas party?
Let's make out.
Fine, I guess.
lol. only if you're buying...and null films it.
back to pp-head: im not sure where the whole "somebody deserves it more" thing came from, as i dont believe anybody is better than the next or deserves it more at all. i also dont think anybody cares what you paid in all honesty. truth ne told, i am glad you lined jellos pockets by over $1000 overpayment for what you got. he's a good dude and does great repair work. you know...somebody who contributes any way he can. it doesnt take much, find some turbo/pce nugget nobody realized, add a mag scan or two, help a member answer a question they dont know, etc.
any time a good "for sale" thread pops up that is well under market you will often find its a good member and they will set rules. generally a minimum post count (even if your count is high, it shouldnt be 100 posts in word association or something stupid like what the f*ck SP stands for). but i digress, can you find a few other areas of the site to post in so you dont keep digging a bigger hole for yourself.
i am trying to help.
I'd like to see your method to finding that combination of titles for 1000 dollars less, unless that method includes sitting on here praying someone post a 'sweet deal' anyways. The pricing he and I worked out was actually him giving it out cheaper than the normal eBay prices, especially for the condition. Rather, I would say the pricing I paid was somewhat in line with what the average listing was going for a year or two ago. His pricing was (almost always) a decent bit below eBay pricing on an individual basis anyways. As they say, something is only worth what people are willing to pay, I do believe that I could easily resell that stuff and make at least a decent profit right now, let alone in a year or so with god knows how it will keep trending.
Thankfully I hope to die with these still in my possession, but I just don't think it's fair to me or jello to imply I got ripped off, as he seems like a nice and fair individual (who may have made a profit based on what he once paid, but not for what it could be worth today), and I am generally pretty savvy when it comes to realistic value.
At worst, it was fair, but I won't be testing those waters to find out.
lol. and you see one or two people paid this much, so that is what it must be worth.
since i just heard of the turbografx two weeks ago, and i need the games immediately, there is no time to research beyond most recent sold ebay listings.
Do you conveniently overlook things stated just to make a point that makes no sense? I've been collecting on this system for a couple years now, and I use the same resources everyone else uses (price charting, ebay, rarityguide, etc)
Typically, if something is obscure and hard to find, the last time it sold will become the new bar. As example, a copy of Kid Dracula (GB) sold for 400 bucks 3 years ago, the last one sold for 700 dollars. So using your logic, because that game pops up maybe once a year, it should be practical to find for 400 dollars, right? To use a more recent example, a copy of Shadowrun sold for something like 200 on the Snes, which seemed really high compared to the normal, I found a copy for about 80 in excellent shape, which is more in line with the usual pricing, but because it's common enough to run into, it doesn't cause a feeding frenzy.
If so, it would explain why so many people are not finding what they want. Curious, I recently obtained a nice condition Super Air Zonk, what price would you say that one would be able to get for it realistically, or rather, if an auction of 1 dollar was made, how aggressive do you think people would go on it?
