I've noticed...
All it takes is a little patience.
Everyday I take a little time to run a search for Saturn games on ebay. Most of the time I don't turn up anything but last night I made out big. Took Salamander Deluxe Pack, Sengoku Blade, and Blast Wind for $15 each..all of them buyitnows. Hell I'm starting to feel a little burnt that I already own a copy of Sengoku Blade(And I paid over $60 for that mofo)
I really don't have the patience to participate in actual auctions anymore. Half the time the really good deals I get(Like a massive Genesis/SMS haul I scored for a little over $30 last year) don't even get sniped at. I already have way more than enough games so there's no reason to sit around hitting reload until my eyes force their way out of their sockets.
Granted I'm still missing a handful of games due to the fact that I'm only after really good deals, but hey that's part of the thrill for me. I can buy Radiant Silvergun for nearly $200 at almost any time I want.. but if I could get it at $20...well hey.
And yeah you might want to uh..."test" those games out beforehand (The Dreamcast is uh...a little too good at that sort of thing). Of course if you manage to buy the game and not like it the resale value is still there.
