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.

Seems i threw a stick in the hornets nest. But thru the strength of Ninja, we stopped the vulture.

Annoyingly, he's relisted and managed to sell 4 of them

Well, you can't protect dumb people from themselves I guess.

 

[Wootball]

My mistake - it was Skyfall he's sold 4 of (at £37.20!!) I mixed the two up with my tired Monday eyes...

Still dont understand all the name calling on here, if i want to buy 10 copies of each roger rabbit and star trek then sell them all off for double or even triple there value then that makes me "SCUM" does it lol, to me that would say i got some brains.

By the way im not doing this but im trying to make a point as its the person who buys these to resell that have every right to do so.

The name calling and frustration usually comes from people who would also like to do this, but can't afford it OR have tried it and failed miserably, because they invested heavily in titles like "Battle Royale", "Oldboy" or "Far Cry"

You are right. A person who takes the risk of buying multiples fully deserve whatever profit he makes.

I am pretty sure there are some folks here who use agents or alternate ids to increase the bid. There are some not so hot play.com exclusives selling for double the price which I find it hard to believe.

MI-4 Ghost Protocol China with bonus BD went for 23 but the single disc play.com version sold for 32. This shows how ill formed many buyers are in eBay.

Coming to Roger rabbit, I can see it is still available and why are people still buying at inflated price?

Well, true, but what I really don't like is if people buy multiple copies and then keep telling everybody how unbelievably rare it is in order to make sure the value increases - THEN it gets annoying....

Duece I am not calling all sellers on ebay scum. The one I am referring to is a blatant liar as he states it's OOS and OOP. Thats what pisses me off, I could care less how much he charges for raping people, I just won't buy. But the lying is just plain wrong. IMO

[blu-steel]

OOP can be used on any steel even if its still being sold. They only print once and thats it.

 

[Drum18]

Hey guys,
can we get back to 'where you post listings with "crazy" prices for Steelbooks' as per OP and not debating on the purpose of selling on Ebay or not... we all know how it is.

 

[BigBlizz]

How about the $39 Indiana Jones KOTCS on eBay?

 

[blu-steel]

There is one on there right now for a lot less.

Yours..... I mean it says brand new, but it looks open. I was the winner of that $39 one.
