Chrono Trigger SNES and Ebay

Post by KindGrind »

Did the complete copies of this recently spiked? They seem to go for 120-150$ routinely on the Bay... :shock: At that price I'm definitely selling mine.

Well, that's a strange phenominon only happen on eBay.

You could sell things for WAYS MORE THAN YOU COULD DREAM OF.

Making you start to wonder that the US dollars really devalue that fast; or that the buyer just input the wrong number; or just kid playing with his parents' account.

But then you got paid, you sent the good, and then the buyer tell you he is happy about it in your feedback... It has been more than once I thought I was dreaming.

I had sold PVC figure I bought for $25 at $200; I had sold promtion stuff came with my purchase for more than I paid for that good/service; I had sold stuff I pick up on the street...

I know I was looking for a copy of Mushihime-sama (PS2) on eBay, and it was 80 dollars a couple of weeks ago.

Now they're all 140+.

i guess it depends where your buying it from. I have sold some crazy shit in my time I bought a PS2 Garou mark of wolves stick game combo for about 45GBP and traded it for a brand new MVS of garou mark of wolves and a samurai spirits 5 . both of these were going for about 60GBP at the time.

You... you traitors. I would never sell my copy of Chrono Trigger. It's not just a cartridge, but it's your cartridge. The one which you played as a kid and still can. For that very reason alone I wouldnoh god this is why I have stacks of games isn't it? I can't bring myself to sell games like these.

I also have a hard time doing it, mostly because of nostalgia. Booted it recently to check if it was still saving and all, and saw my save file with like 80 hours on it, far more than any other RPG I have ever played. It still looks and sounds(!) amazing, even after 13 years.

Yet it will pay for like half the XRGB2 I'll be buying in a very near future, or part of a copy of a shiny Slap Fight MD or Harmful Park. Either way, that's win/win/win for me.

Also, steer clear of Ebay if you want to buy Cave PS2 ports (especially for Ibara and Mushi). Buy from fellow forum members and you'll save some $!

EDIT:Typo.

Funny thing is, $120 is not all that much more than the original retail price, at least what I paid for mine way back.

Indeed. Mine still has the price sticker on the box, and it says 100$. It's not all that bad; not like complete copies of Earthbound, for example.
