Hey he just keeps lowering this Huey Only Legend of Hero Tonma $160 now $125. I also noticed he changed the discription. I see its no longer as elusive as Magical Chase.  :roll:


Whats even worse... he already knows what the market will pay for it...

He tried to sell it once (but no doubt had a super high reserve) just so he could see what peeps might pay for it, then he relisted it at a way higher price hoping someone would bite.  Super Douche!

What's funny as I passed up an auction last night for this game for $1.50, although it was the PCE version.

granted, it is an auction, so i bet whoever's buying thinks it's some kind of steal...

Heh, he's getting close.  It's down to $105 with free shipping, only a buck more than the original auction.

Yes, Bartre, that's kind of high.
Mishran, you were very fortunate to get that so cheap.

lemme know if you don't want keith or takin it to the hoop, i could use the huey case off keith.

Sadly, I purchased these only for the cases. Especially Ninja Spirit. Have the game and manual, but missing the case. Will likely keep the other 2 non keith courage cases, for the TTI games I have, and give away or sell the games. I'm a terrible person... :(

Has anyone noticed that the more we rant about the gouging on ebay, the higher some of these jerks raise the prices? It's almost as if they think that they're punishing us.
Kind of like the old price changing trick in Kid Icarus where you try to get the shop keeper to give you a discount but, if he gets angry or offended, he raises the prices for spite.

This isn't particular to any one console or game, though. Look at the rise in gaming products in general. I purchased a neon Nintendo sign and a tin Mario sign from the early 90's for $75 last year. They sold on Ebay for $400 a piece. The neon sign was a $.99 NR auction and the Mario sign was a $.99 NR auction that I accidentally listed with a $399.99 BIN. The tin sign sold in a matter of minutes. People really want this stuff. And at the prices they are paying, I can't imagine they are looking to move them any time soon. It's one less opportunity to pick up a collectible that many are after.
