The Secret of Monkey Island PC CD-ROM

[Aussie2B]

I know this game is worth a fair chunk of change, but I'm having a hard time determining how much my specific version is worth. I've been watching eBay for awhile, and there haven't been any auctions with a complete CD-ROM version. I have seen several sales for complete copies of the 5.25 floppy version, and they seem to end within the range of 75 to 140 dollars. This is just assumption, but I imagine this version would be even more desirable on the basis that CD-ROM is a much easier format to use these days than 5.25 floppies. I didn't buy this game new, but considering the nature of the lot I got it in, I'm all but certain that these are all the pieces. If anyone thinks I'm missing something from this particular release of it, please let me know. Everything is perfectly mint too, so how much could I theoretically get for it?

I personally wouldn't sell it, but you may have someone pay up to $50.00 for the item. Secret of Monkey Island on PC CD was released within multipacks when MPC/Single speed CD-Roms's were first coming out. As an updated version of the VGA disk version, the music was altered slightly. They also reduced the verb count on the PC-CD version. Loom on PC-CD is a harder one to find (complete). If the item is complete, box in great condition, and disc in mint condition, you may be able to sell it for more. Seeing a SCUMM game up in the $140 mark makes me weep though. The games are good, but there's no need for people to inflate the price:)

Oh, I should've also added that I have seen just the loose disc in the sleeve sell regularly for about $40-$50, so I figure this one should be worth at least a fair bit more.

Apparently it's around $70.00 + on amazon.com. Try your luck around. I just can't see this game being worth over $50.00. To each their own though. If the demand's there, sell it for as much as you can. The only SCUMM game I'm missing (mint in box) is Zak McCracken.
