Price for Ys 3
« on: September 05, 2008, 12:40:31 AM »
Does anyone know how much Ys 3 for Turbo actually should cost? On Ebay It seems to float around the $100 range, is this right?

Most definitely not; don't use douche bucket gamesquad to accurately gauge prices.  An unboxed but otherwise complete copy should go for no more than $20 (clicky).

You never will, nintega.  Just go ahead and pull the trigger on gamesquad's $99.99 deal and get it over already.  :roll:

What good will patentice do if some a$$hole snipes auctions? That is why I hate bidding.

BTW I despise bidding because a$$hole snippers/resellers make it impossible to get hard to find games at decent prices.

Once again you've revealed your mind's fallacies (not to be confused with phallus).  Did you  bother to click on the link posted above?  It ended at $16.61 with shipping, though that wasn't high enough to meet the seller's reserve price.  If bid snipers and resellers truly were falling all over themselves to inflate prices, then it would've ended much higher.  Have patience, grasshopper.

I paid slightly under $40 for a sealed US copy on ebay in 2007. Since then I've seen sealed US copies go for around $100 on ebay. I would suggest that you wait around for a decent deal. Ys 3 really is a bad-ass game; I had a lot of fun playing through it!

alot of people say its the worst Ys, but I thought it was killer also.

I remember this game going for more around 2003-ish, like $50 or so. Luckily this is one of those games that have gone down in price over the years.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

That must be sarcasm.

I got my copy for $35ish.  It might've been less but I'm pretty sure that $35 was the shipped price.
