I guess the big question is, what are you looking to get for this game?  I used to have it  years ago, and been looking to get it again.  Just with the ebay prices..  ugh..  So, what are ya looking to get for it?  Cuz, I would be interested in it.  :)  PM me.

I looked around and those ebay prices aren't far away from the ones on racketboy (the only place I could find with solid pricing), so considering that article is from last year I'd say there's amazingly non-insane.

How about $255 shipped?

I sold my *near mint* game to a guy at the Midwest Gaming Classic for $100.  I purchased it as part of a 2 SCD's for $69.99 from TZD, so I felt like a shit just selling it and making that much profit.

If you want $255 you might as well pop the beast on freakin' eBay man.

With that said I'll take it off your hands for $100.

Eat shit and go to eBay.  You're an utter fool for thinking we'd want to pay you a premium over the already ridiculous eBay gouge jobs - at least there you'd have to pay their fees and the buyer would get some protection.

Yes that is way to high... i paid no more than $100 for mine as well and its in sweet shape...
Have you posted this game on any other forums you visit, any offers? i bet when you tell them the price they hit the road.

Sorry, but your getting hit over the head with the big reality stick... It f@cking hurts but its the truth as harsh as it comes out sometimes.

I got mine on ebay for just 65$ and that was 2 years ago. 255$ is just ridiculous.

Your references, pictures, and detailed description are all very nice, but you'd do well to rethink your pricing.  Most members here help each other out and are very quick to criticize any perceived price gouging (in fact, we have a perpetual thread about it).  A lot of new, often well-intended, sellers show up thinking the prices they've seen on ebay are an accurate guideline and they tend to get run out of town pretty damn fast.  

I bought a complete w/poster copy for $80 sometime around 2007 and that was on ebay.  You could probably get over a hundred now, even on these forums.  Accept reasonable offers and you'll find a warmer welcome and good deals returned in the future (like free Sapphire reprints).  Stick to the ebay mindset you might as well move along.

I paid $60 for my copy recently, but it came without a poster.  I'd be willing to pay $20ish for that damn poster alone...

I bought mine for $70, but it also was without a poster. I don't think the poster makes it worth an additional $150, however.

Wow, thanks to all of you for shitting on me and accusing me of gouging on a game that I openly admitted that I have no clue on the value.  I based my price off of the only two sources I had, but if you guys would rather be dicks than be civil, I won't bother lowering the price for any of you and I'll just take it elsewhere and sell it for less.  Maybe before shitting all over me, if you bothered to look my links (which I took down now) you'd see I've always sold rare items for the going price or less...but that's fine.  I'll take the rest of my collection elsewhere.

Way to welcome a new user.

Listen bud, everyone with one exception was perfectly nice in pointing out your high asking price. No one shit on your thread, but with that kind of attitude we're better off without you. See ya!
