Is this the "Good Deals" thread now? 


LOL :-)

When I read this I thought it say $50 not $500 ;-)

and, a friend asked the seller about its originality and then he replied:

Hallo g3osnow,

Hallo,
also es ist schon der Reprint, falls du das mit "Fälschung" meinst. Ist aber mittlerweile fast genauso schwer zu bekommen, wie die Erstauflage. LG

- videospielladen


translation:
 it is the reprint, if that's what you`re talking about the counterfeit. but it's almost as hard to get these days, as the 1st print is. best regards.

Don't forget the first rule of video gam Investment:

Quote
so if you have the game already you probably dont have the manual so here is your chance to complete your game, having your gam complete doubles the value of that game so this is a good investment


Also if it wasn't enough to prove his idiocy; Could his grammer be worse?  More Rare then game - seriously if getting rarer wasn't bad enough, you don't know when to use then or than? They're Run-ons galore in the descrption.  I know it's the internet, but at least fake being somewhat intelligent.

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

I've begun to steer clear of any links to gouged games listings recently. I just can't stand to watch anymore. My heart is broken as I watch the wider open arena that is our collective retro gamer's conscience devolve into a mad rush for the top dollar. The last bastion of hope lies within communities such as ours. I am forever grateful for this place.

Other things I am avoiding...

YT vids showing off game collections (though I would watch one if I knew them from here)

Turbo/PCE Facebook groups (I decided today I am done with a certain Turbo group that recently sprouted on FB. When the group founder continually refers to his collection as "the vault" and group members  continually call common games "rare" my blood pressure reaches worrying levels. I may be a little over sensitive with this but I gotta leave while I still have my sanity)

Ebay searches involving the words "Trubografx", "PC Engine", or "Sega CD"
