hmm even if it is authentic, isnt 900 dollars a wee bit much 
. Still Gouging amirite?
It certainly is.
And on second thought, it might well be a fake. The ones Tobias shows on his site now look to have more accurate coloring, but the disc is still different; perhaps that's why this guy is adamant that it shouldn't be opened.
I
finally got my copy of the latest Sapphire bootleg. The first thing that stands out from that auction is that this fake and the current versions of SFZ and Rockman all
do not have a peel away strip. Although the suit is more purple looking in the purple spots and the screen shots on the back are lined up better, looking at this on its own it looks noticeably lower quality that the original batch. The spine card has some bleeding and everything looks like it was printed on non-glossy paper with an ink jet printer. Not literally, it just has that kind of pale non-glossy finish. Still a very nice replica if you want something like this, but all the more easy to immediately spot as fake. He even through in a spare loose disc of Sapphire, which looks like a non-cdr version and doesn't appear misprinted in any way.
So, that auction seems to not be from the original or recent batch of fakes, but since the original boots showed the world an easy way to get rich quick, there may very well be any number of different fakes from different sources out there. So be very careful when looking for a real one.
