So.................Uh................http://www.ebay.com/itm/Magical-Chase-COMPLETE-TurboGrafx-16-1993-PLUS-ALL-94-U-S-RELEASED-GAMES-/330787860718?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item4d047e30ee#ht_3318wt_1186

This one is definitely gouging. Then again, I don't pay too much attention to how much boxes of games are going for. I'd guess with Magical chase, bonk3, and Soldier Blade being in there then around 4,000-5,000 tops not 15,000.

yeah this was discussed a little further back in the thread.  I maintain he's looking for an offer in the 8-12k range from some idiot, so they think they are getting a great deal.  Gouging at it's best, put up some crazy number, and the sheep will follow, between this and the MC up, you expect games to be at a premium when anyone sitting on the games will assume they can get crazy prices.  Damn i feel cheap for the ninja spirit and hit the ice I picked up for $20 each with the outer boxes.

Guess the 8 offers has him realizing he was 8-10K or so over what he should be. LOL. or was it people here asking him What the hell he was doing.

For me it's pretty interesting to see an entire U.S. collection listed.  This is the first one I've seen one posted on eBay.  That, and Magical Chase listed at the same time.  For me it's exciting to watch both auctions even though I don't have the slightest intention of bidding and the prices are out of this world.

Looks like someone backed out of the max bid on MC ,,,, It was around $2,550 this morning, down to $2,075.00 as I write.

MC auction is not looking too good for you tggodfrey, bidding is stagnant, but there is bound to be a last hour surge.
Ending at 1am, kind of an off time which doesn't help his chances.

So that uber lot has already dropped from $25000 to $7250? I wonder what it was originally listed for? $55000?

Jackie Chan for 80.00?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Jackie-Chans-Action-Kung-Fu-TurboGrafx-16-1992-/140844456120?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item20cafbd8b8

Ys Book 1 & 2 for 2500.00

I REALLY REALLY HATE VGQ.  THEY PUT THIER OWN GRADE ON S*^T, NOT EVEN VGA, THEN MARK THE HELL UP OUT OF IT.  THEIR CLAIM TO BE ABLE TO GRADE, "WE'VE BEEN IN THE BUSINESS SINCE THE LATE 80's"  HMM MSOUNDS LIKE MOST OF US HERE, hell many of you are more qualified,  From what I've learned here we could have SeymoreOnion, or maybe bluebmw, make up some acrlyic cases and have sparky make some nice labels on freezer bags and start the PCENGINEFX grading scale.
