Isn't that one of those resealable cellophane bags?
I'm busy playing pinball, but I still drop by to visit.

That's what I was thinking too, but he may have put one over the original shrinkwrap to protect it?

The same guy also has a Darius Alpha up at $1400 USD:

COMES FROM A NON SMOKING COLLECTORS STORE

Never played. I ended up with two of them, so I'm selling my personal copy. I don't know if this one is a first run or not. The price is set high, to avoid low bidders and those who can't read :), but contact me with a Best Offer and we'll work something out.

Are you seriously trying to gouge on a Homebrew game?  I hope like heck you reconsider this one, as the developer would certainly NOT be happy about this.

Haha, relax. That's why the best offer is there lol. If I get 40 I'm happy. That's how much my wife paid. I know the author, nice guy. I just don't want to wind up getting it sold for .99 cents ya know? My neo xyx copy went for 20 bucks lol, but I guess that's auctions for ya.

Hey... that is one of our guys here isn't it?  Why gouge it?
Yeah, its him.  Appears he's sold more than one at that price.  Sad that one of us would do that.....  :(  I dont know whether I should be happy people want to pay that much for a Homebrew, or sad that one of our own would stoop so low to gouge it like that.  Not as high as the other one, but still....  I dunno..  Maybe I shouldnt have an opinion on this.  MAYBE, we do need another pressing.  I dunno. 
Aaaand another one..

i wouldnt worry too much, nothing that rover can do ( aside from not sell to them next time if that's what he wanted to do ), but i wouldn't expect it to sell anyways!.. :)  now if it sells for that price then we know the tg16 market is insane and everyone should start making RARE homebrew with a press run of 5 or less ;) actually thats what we should do, a PRETEND run of 5 or a super limited number, sell them for some stupid price on ebay, and then mass release 100's of copies after ;).. lol

He has sold one at that price..  I don't get why a fellow gamer here would do that to another gamer...
