In my experience with eBay, "untested" means "doesn't work".
I am disappointed in this pricing... The original Crossed Swords is pry my favorite AES game I own. I wish some one would flood the market and make this worthless...
flooding the market lately only works for a short time, but i guess some time is better then no time.
It was about damn time you'd noticed... how well I copied your style.
that's very true.I look at some prices compared to just a year ago and its frustrating, I just look and shake my head. Im very interested to see what happens when the bubble bursts.Mainly I think people who collect games for investment rather then for entertainment. It kills the hobby for all. The video game market is so unstable too...

You may be right, but maybe not. It depends on the on going interest. You can never predict if more people just stop caring about a certain system, console, or handheld device and its media or if it becomes more important not to take it in the ass and just get roms and emulators. Nintendo and TG/PCE is horrid now in the 8/16bit level, but then you look at Sega and thanks to them being mostly irrelevant now and raping their fan base with stupid stunts in the 90s they're pretty cheap pick ups, especially game gear, yet you do have specialized poachers making the SegaCD ridiculous.
Neo-Geo is a tough one, I haven't watched it long term, but look what these games priced out for back in their day, compare it to now. I'm sure some of you are used to buying them for prices in the sub $100 ranges for a good many, especially loose, but realistically they're not expensive against where they had been.
I doubt there will ever be a day when people just stop caring about a certain system or its games and the market crashes.
Look at any hobby thats been around for more than ~30years and you see the same thing happening. Cars, Music, Comics, Coins, etc.
Right now, its mostly nostalgia driving the prices but eventually it will turn into "owning a piece of history". Not many people buy or restore a Model T because it was nostalgic, but because of its history.
