[The 1 2 P]

I went into completed items to see what I should price my newly aquired adapter at. A lot of 10 used network adapters went for $500 twice this month and some are going for $1,000 a lot? Time to sell our adapters guys. It's a good thing I just bought one today:cheers:

EDIT: both prices are for lots of 10 and 20 respectively, not single adapters. But still......

Lol, I have one with a sealed Start Up Disc. ROFL

Ok, I'm going to buy a shit ton of these. I see them constantly.

[walrusmonger]

Damn, I had a network adapter just chilling and threw it away since I had no idea it'd be worth anything. I still have one for my personal PS2 collection though, but I won't sell it.

I wonder why these are going for so much, doesn't make any sense when you could buy a new ps2 with a built in adapter for $120 or so right? Are people buying these so they can use the HDD?

Huh, I barely even used this thing to play games, didn't know it could be used as an HDD. :hmm:

Makes sense why it would drive up cost, though.

[darkslime]

People buy it so they plug in the HDD and install games on it.

Are you kidding me!!! Gamestop sells these for $15 all day long and they have over 20. Time to finally rape Ebay the way I get raped all the freakin' time!!! W00T!!

[OldSchoolGamer]

GUYS settle down, click any of those showing a single adaptor, they are actually for lots of 20...............

[atreyu187]

Yea but a single sells for a ton. Watch ebay and my name I am goign to buy the last 10-15 I saw at Gamestop two days ago and pay for Christmas that way. It is the only time in my life I will be able to get something at gamestop for less than the internet and still get a few bucks off of Ebay. I mean really why are they going for so much when they can be had at any gamestop for $15 plus tax? And BTW we know they are for more than one it was in the first post silly :above me:

As you can see 1 Adapter sells for about $40.00 most of the time. Their are some that sell for $20.00-$30.00 rang but thats people with low feedback and get sniped. If you have good feedback you can sell one for $40.00 BIN.

hope that helped .

[evil_genius]

I've made a shit ton of money off these in the past 3 months and I just sold a lot of 10 at BIN for 500. They sold in a few hours. There is a very high demand for these for some reason.

I have one so I just need to find 9 more cheap ones to sell as a lot.

Combine the adapter with a harddisk and that new memorycard exploit and you can play all the games you want (either from HDD or from burned DVDs) without modding your PS2.

Dont mind Ebay, its just one big public forum of stupidity hellbent for leather in making all hobbies too expensive for the common individual.

[MarioMania]

I just saw one at Gamecrazy..Should I jump on it,

I just don't want to have it sit in my room not selling after Jan 09
