I have my doubts that one in similiar state sold for $600USD +. There's too many things missing for a collector to dish out that kind of $$ in my opinion. Of course he can't prove it either, if it happened in like January without a screen shot or something.
list it with a starting bid of $0.99 and watch your dreams come true.
Exactly. If he's so confident his cardboard is worth $600, he should just throw it up as an auction. He's actively reposting trying to sell as a BIN, so what's holding him back? He seems pretty confident in his friends evaluation, so why not go forward?? Maybe he's one of those tax season guys lol.
Turboswimbz I agree 100%, emotions are what drive these sellers crazy.
There was a guy local who owned a wine shop, wasn't remotely into video games. But at a garage sale, he found a box of TurboGrafx 16 games that he got for like $20. And of course one of those games happened to be Hero Tonma. Posted it for $800USD on the FB pages, got laughed at, got some serious offers, low offers ect. But then a local store reached out to him and offered him $750USD, which he contemplated and ended up refusing
. In retrospect, he's a f*cking idiot. At the time, there were eBay BINS lower than the $750 he was offered. But for whatever reason, he had $800 stuck in his head. He threw it up for auction on eBay a couple times, both auctions ending around $500. Refused to settle for the ending price, and accepted the negative feedback / paying the 10% eBay fees.
Few months later he reposted for $600, still didn't sell. When someone offered him $500, he got so upset he deleted all his posts and said he was keeping it. I checked in with him a few weeks ago, and he still has it NFS. Just sitting in a dusty box in his garage he says.
By far the most emotional seller i've ever witnessed, and it happened this summer.
He had some solid other games too like NAI and Jackie Chan, but was less emotional about them. Still jerked people around on eBay, canceling transactions and refunding a couple people ect.
