I have a spindle of Dreamcast HKT-06 GDR's that I'm considering selling since I've realized I'll never make any use of them. Got them directly from a game developer's storage many years ago.

Don't know the value of these anymore. There are 29 GDR's in total... of which 27 looks completely blank and two that looks like they have data on them! :)

GDR supply is limited. Can only get more expensive as they're used up.

Been a long time since I've seen someone sell a Spindle of those. I see most single disks go for above 30+ each on eBay. I feel it's a ripoff though.

However Lum is correct that people can and might use them for development purposes, but most Homebrew developers won't. To be able to burn on one of these you need to have a GD-Writer. Not too many people have them, and there's even fewer people still developing for the Dreamcast anymore. This is why the few who still might use CD based media instead. Cheap and plentiful.

So it's mostly a collection piece to the average person at this point. Also, the GD-R supply isn't terribly limited. There is almost always one auction for one disk on eBay at all times. I've been noticing they don't sell like the used to anymore either. Like I said, the average person can't use it.

In short I'm not sure what a spindle would exactly go for anymore but I'd love it for my Dreamcast collection. I'm sure another collector into Dreamcast might be too.
