Bonk 3 CD

[Green]

I currently have a Bonk 3 CD on eBay for $1200 OBO

Anyone here interested? I can let it go for $900 shipped.

I also have some Sega Saturn games I'd like to sell (Radiant Silvergun and Battle Garegga) if anyone is interested in those I can work out a good deal for you.

[MrBroadway]

Which Saturn games and what prices?

Hmm scott might be interested, not sure if he has it yet

Jesus christ 900??? Im not knocking what you are asking. I just had no idea bonk 3 was that rare. Even the HuCard is like 700...was it just in limited production?

I remember when members here began irrationally trashing Magical Chase without even playing it, because it was going for as much as $80 and they swore they'd never pay so much for any video game.

Now something like this gets posted and there are instantly people interested.

From a strictly collectible/rarity point of view, this is the rarest Turbo game and based solely on that, should be the most expensive.

Do you think the bootlegs have anything to do with that? I.e. now that there are bootlegs, more people either get that which suffices and sell the more expensive legitimate version, or decide it might deprecate in value and then sell.

It's just the normal cycle with games people sit on for profit.

Once a copy appears on eBay after a drought and gets bid up to 2 or 3 tines what it usually sold for during the past year or two, even people who weren't planning to flip rush to list their copies in time to cash in.

That's actually really true.  I saw the same thing recently with Radical Rex on SegaCD.  I guess there hadn't been a copy listed for awhile and then Vic Ireland sold his maybe 6 months ago at auction and it cleared almost $500, I was floored!  As you say, a ton of other folks rushed to sell their copies as well at that time, but the price has been slowly going back down thankfully since the only exceptional thing about the game is the rarity. 

What was once very uncommon to pop up is appearing a lot more now, it's just that the price is much higher since people know it is RAREZ.

Anyone remember Circus Lido?

looks like greens auction didnt sell for 1200, so he's up to his old tricks again.

I would love for truckload of "rare" PCE/TG-16 games to be found.... everyone wins.
