Turbo Gouging on Ebay ( r.i.p. - gouging much )

Dear Lord, I hope that's a typo.  Perhaps he meant $119 or $199 and not $1199, or mayhap he's just a retard.

OMG I SEEN THAT, I was gonna post the same link. Now Magical Chase is just getting stupid. Glad I got mine years ago for cheap.

Slowly but surely it is happening to the Japanese version as well.

Jesus Christ. I've got to put my EPROM burner to work.

Looks like i'll never complete my collection (Magical Chase) unless I stumble upon it at a yard sale or flea market (3720-1 odds, i know). Nonetheless, I still think there are deals on ebay, if you're patient... really patient, but they're there.

i take that back, Cotton just sold for $570... what happened?

[Sadler]

So, um, that Cotton sold for over $500. It sold for more than Dynastic Hero did. For better or worse (probably in this case better), I didn't bid on these.

[djolof]

Nor did I. I remember when I'd see these go for $50 on ebay...

I honestly had planned on bidding on a few of those guy's games. I was going to bid $200 for Cotton, $350 for Beyond Shadowgate, and $600 for Dynastic Hero. I meant to wait until near when bidding ended to see if the bids were still under that, but I screwed up. Oh well, I guess the only one I would have won would have been Dynastic Hero and I really shouldn't drop $600 on one game.

Whaaaat?

[SMF]

WOW, I should really sell my TG\Duo collection. I mean every game that sold I have. Magical Chase, Beyond ShadowGate, Cotton, Dynastic Hero. HOLY MARY MOTHER OF GOD.

I guess whoever bought that Cotton for $570 didn't see the Cotton that sold for $40 two weeks ago.

[Senshi]

I call Bullshit. I doubt he gets the money.

[GameFreak]

Oh my.........
...and why do they spell grafx wrong (graphx) on the label? The spelling doesnt change in another country like color/colour or centre/center. It's spelled "tubografx" no matter what country it's in....hahahahaha.
You can make a home made converter but you can't make a home made rare game.
How come china hasn't produced some modern $10 converts for us yet? ...Probably not enough demand to pay for the plastic molds.

This "born-invincible" guy also had Beyond Shadowgate go for $400 plus, when just a few weeks ago a complete one with poster (which I missed again due to my son, dope!)  for only $120.  Someone is clearly fockign with that seller.  No way cotton is worth $500.  I mean I had my eye on another auction (but lost track of it during the birth of little Tokei last week) -> and it had Cotton US PLUS Dynastic Hero US and it only went for $500. 

Again - I had pointed out this Born-Invisible guy seems to be rigging it (see my post where he was conjuring up bids even on PAstel Lime)... seems like it to me for sure.
