The "OMG the price is high on Ebay, etc!!!" thread

[digitalbabe]

So, we have the "Fake" and "Steelbook Price Drop" thread, but we don't yet have the thread where you post listings with "crazy" prices for Steelbooks. If you see any, post them here and have fun debating. As per forum rules, please remain respectful with each other-one person's "high price", could be another's "deal of a lifetime" score. Enjoy!

Please keep discussion to Ebay and other retailers, not private sellers.

this one is better

The FA AASB cracks me up.
People sell this this for 3 reasons:
1. They can make a lot of money
2. It's a sh*tty film they don't need in their collection
3. It's a sh*tty film they don't need in their collection and They can make a lot of money
Reasons that are never correct:
This is a good film
This is movie deserves high value.
Real reason:
Hard to find, rare.
(But so is case of black plague).

Cracks me up even more that people buy it for ludicrous prices

It is one of those steelbooks that is proof positive that you have obsessive compulsive disorder with collecting! (Because this is objectively not a good film). It's like putting out a gold plated edition of Troll 2 with limited print run.

I'm pretty sure that is breaking ebay rules by being up there.

I haven't seen any of the blufans full slips for AOU go for retail



So your bothered about the 1/4 slip for this flooding eBay yet your sitting on 3 blufans full slips you can easily stick on eBay and judging by your comment on you worrying about the value of them it sounds like that's exactly what you want to do with them

That's technicality not retail

That's £4 more than what I paid for the lenti version and the full slip slip was $3 cheaper than the lenti which at the time conversion was awful after brexit so that's over £5 more than the "retail" and considering the HDN GB was a few $ more than other GBs that eBay listing would of been about £7/£8 more than "retail". Obviously depending on what site you got it from.

But that's not a bad price and one of better priced full slips I've seen go for on the bay

 

[stevo]

Anyone got another Blufans full slip for retail? I can use a 4th or a 5th.

That listing is an Auction. Auctions will 99% of the time sell cheaper than a BIN because of the urgency to sell. That's how you grab a bargain. I seen a lot of BIN that have been sold for £70 - £80 a while ago.

IMO the value of a steel should be considered between an Auction and a BIN.

Why are you collecting 4 or 5 duplicate steels?
