Is this game really worth that much? Granted I haven't followed the TG16 scene much but I've been thinking about getting back into the TG purely for gaming. I know its rare but that rare?

WOW!!!! I'd say that is gonna go higher. The box is insanely hard to find. Everyone needs that box. This one actually has the misc. inserts that came with it. Very nice. Even if someone just wants a piece from this they will be bidding and relisting the extra pieces. Definitly worth watching.

That is one minty-fresh Magical Chase. Good luck to the person that wins it. I know that at least 3 of our forumites need the box.
In a related note, does anyone else store their cardboard boxes flattened? What do you do with the contents?

If you didn't count me in on the 3, you can make it 4.

Personally I dont flatten mine. By the looks of the shape that box is in, maybe I should start.

I need it too but it's going to go well out of my range. Oh well.

What's the Rarity rating on this game, R8 or R9? Either way, this game rarely comes around. It's hard enough to find the common Turbo stuff, let alone Magical Chase.

The right boxes sure are expensive huh? Unlike Stadium Events, I actually want one of these. A loose one is still a dream for me though. LOL

Another one just popped up at $1599 buy it now. Lets see how long that lasts... I bet less than 3 hours...

Smart move, those people who are bidding up the $1525 copy can see that, and wager whether they will pay an extra $75 for a less-minty copy and avoid a likely bidding war... very smart from that seller's perspective.

But yeah, this is kind of one of those games that appears to have taken a life of its own in terms of mystique and pricing. Finding a nice box like that is quite challenging these days. Collecting Turbo boxes in general is a huge pain in the butt.

I need a 300 DPI scan of the front of the instruction booklet. Can anyone here help me with that?

I was right for once! The $1599 copy is gone... pretty crazy. I foresee a pretty nasty bidding war in the last moments of the other copy...

Not much of a bidding war, just stupid high $.

Well, it rarely shows up CIB and it's actually a good game (I have the PCE version). I'm not sure if it justifies the final price though.

What have boxed copies gone for in past years, I don't collect TG16 stuff so I have no idea.
