crazy.

 

[GregN]

Tis truly crazy

 

[galfordo]

lol nerds

 

[TonK]

I've been searching for a sealed Secret of Mana...

 

[WeinerDogSunglasses]

I wouldn't pay even near that, but I have to admit it looks fucking awesome

 

[bokmeow]

Why pay $1001 when I already have the romz

 

[Rade K]

They shoulda never gave you nerds money.

 

[Weevus]

I knew a guy who sold a sealed Megaman X2 for $500 and thought that was insane, but this is INSANE. Whatever floats your boat I guess.

 

[Nesagwa]

Wonder if whoever wins it is going to open it up and play it.

 

[qube]

I would go as far as saying that it is worthy to be displayed in a Museum type setting.

 

[abasuto]

I have a distrust of new "sealed" games since I'm well aware you can reseal them.

 

[LoneSage]

lol video games as investments.

But, I do have a sealed Dragon Quest VII...

Some nerds actually work for a living and have their own money.

Buddy of mine was looking at the pics, and says its a reseal. Something about where the seams in the plastic are. He says real seal snes games have em in a different location. Not sure about that though. Just food for thought.

You suck.

For 1000 dollars they're going to display it in a museum like setting. Judging by the game, it will be in the same cabinet as their half-naked 12 year old girl anime figures.

Looks like any other sealed SNES game I've ever seen.

 

[Rade K]

ATM, there is a zero feedback bidder winning.

Now THATS shilling.

 

[Xian Xi]

I think if credit cards never existed then bid wars of this magnitude would never happen.

 

[Rade K]

Someone's going to be working extra shifts at Best Buy this month.

that's what I was about to say. Were SN games sealed at launch?

 

[Nesagwa]

Yeah, and all those old games came in the cheap heat shrink wrap. Anyone that works at a grocery store or a best buy could reseal these things.

 

[DangerousK]

I thought a lot of the games had the plastic piece to hang it on a rack?

Or was that something retailers would add on to it?

Hmmm, good point...


I thought it was added during the manufacturing process.

Anyways, I can almost guarantee the winning bidder will remain a (0) bidder.


Typical. Why doesn't the seller cancel that bid? Surely he's watching the last few mins of a big ticket auction.

So what's the difference between a bidding war over a SNES game, and a bidding war over a Neo Geo game?
