    Default If I could only turn every dollar into this

    So I bought this board game for a dollar. Thought I could make a few bucks on it on ebay. Well, here was the end result:

    Wish I had a few more of them. BTW, did anyone here ever play this game? Frankly, I'm very curious why people would be willing to pay such good money for an item like this.

    There are alot of old board games worth money. Same goes for video games I've heard. I'm no expert, but I'd say that was one of them....

    Nice deal you got there.

    People will buy all kinds of crazy old stuff. Old Disney is always good, like them nature books they once made.

    95% of old stuff is crap but the rest is pure gold, you just never know.
    Once I picked three vintage slot car sets for 5€ each, one sold for 120€ and the two others for 10€ each. When asked, the buyer informed me the "good set" had some rare fence pieces.
