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.

really theres something wrong with all these listings of ebay...bids go well under cost price even, buy it now prices are 3 times more than an average sale, and of course youve got people listing items released in july at 5 times the price,
joswin and raj i feel for you guys, was thinking to list something aswell on ebay, but with all these i doubt i will...

These didn't do too badly...

French Jack Reacher just sold for £37. How much for the UK one which will has a significantly smaller run?

..... and the French one is still in stock for 25 Euros

 

[roadie]

Uk one- can easily be sold for £45 to £50

This will be an interesting auction to watch to see what people are prepared to pay for it. £30 with nearly 9 days to run though...

You can't guarantee the condition so why have it in there.

Plus the manufacturing glitch makes it almost rare to have a "flawless" copy

1) i have showed pictures of the one i have
2) i just mentioned i am getting a replacement for it
if you do have a problem dont bid on it, i got two copies and let the market decide what they want to pay for it, i didnt set a price for it, so if you dont like it just dont look at it

and on a lighter note......

I don't care how you list it that is your business, I was highlighting an amusing line in the listing and I am allowed to have an opinion on that.

Lol 5 available, for the foreseeable future at that price

 

[jitstark]

Nearly all their listings are that price and they are selling nearly 200 items. Whoever is listing them is either hilarious or oblivious.

No worries - hope you get as much as you can for it and it makes your own copy free. Thats what I will be doing when I get my replacement
