How high can it go??

In 2 days and a few hours it went from .99 cents to almost $2,100.  More than likely will be nabbed by a reseller, but some DAMN fine titles involved.

Droolworth collection.  I'll be surprised if the seller doesn't pull the listing before it ends.  If it does run its course, I'll guess that some nutter will get it up over $10000.  I guess that really ain't that bad, considering it's still only a bit over an average of $20 each.

Good grief.  I was tempted to bid when it was 1/3 that price, but now it's just ludicrous, *especially* with the bidding history being private.
