Under Defeat LE, worth the ebay prices?

I bought a copy from a fellow member last summer for $60. Are the ebay prices really what the game is worth nowadays? Factory sealed LE going for $174?

well, factory sealed of anything old and desirable can hit rediculous prices, but you probably want to search finished auctions to get an idea of what they are actually selling for.

listed prices vs what ppl are actually paying are two different things.

The Limited Edition version of DC Border Down is, at the very least, worth paying the retail asking price for it when it went on sale on day one of release. Granted that only 3,000 copies of LE BD were minted for the Japanese DC console market. Hard-core shmuppers already have this DC LE BD set in their DC shmup gaming stash alrighty.

So if you were one of the lucky ones who was smart enough to pre-order such a copy, you saved by not having to spend some extra needless cash when it eventually sold out and have to resort to acquire it through the secondary video game collector buyer's market. Make sense now? ^_~

it is worth the price. I think with the limited edition you get the dreamcast version of the soundtrack and some other stuff. I downloaded the game though and really love playing it on my dreamcast.

Damn! I knew I should have held on to that a bit longer.

I bought my sealed limited edition copy at $90. The seller had a $130 OBO Buy It Now, and I lowballed and got a deal.

Is it worth it? Well, I'm aiming for a decent Dreamcast collection. I have back-ups of everything, so it won't do anything but look pretty on a shelf. G.Rev is worth supporting, but paying $174 just puts money in a collector's pocket and gives you nice box art to look at.
