The Receiving End of a Little "Insanity"

[briskbc]

OK Sellers. Have you ever had an auction that ended much higher than you thought it would. Time to brag people.

Namco Museum Vol. 2 ---------------- $80 BIN
Earthbound new ----------------------- $100
Star Wars Trilogy Gold Set (new)-- $105
Pumping Iron ---------------------------- $104
WCW Bash at the Beach 2000----- $100 \
WCW Fall Brawl 2000------------------ $75 --- These 3 to one buyer.
WCW Great American Bash 2000-- $63 /
Sooner or Later VHS------------------- $112
The Making of Labrynth VHS ------- $75

That's all I can think of right now. As you can see I mostly sell videos. This is over the course of 6 years of selling. Anyone else?

I sold roughly 100 Nintendo Power magazines (from about issue 20-120) plus some minor extras for about $150. I was hoping for maybe $50 :)

The only one I can think of at the moment is the loose Legend of Zelda Game & Watch I had a few years ago, I think it went to someone in the Netherlands for $110+SH. It was in mint condition with most of the protecting plastic on the cover, but what gets me is that someone had a boxed, complete one with the plastic with a BIN of $60 or $70 at the time. When I saw my price rising, I started to think that I should just use that BIN and pocket the extra profit. LOL

Oh yeah -- about a year ago I bought a Japanese GameCube Keyboard from a EBay seller for $100. Did'nt use it as much as I thought I would, so I put it up on EBay. Would have been happy to get my money back, thrilled if I made $150. Some newbie at the last minute bid $300 for it! :eek 2:

And he paid, also! :)

I laughed all the way to the bank on that one. :D

I got two free DVDs in the mail one time from DigiDesign (sound equipment company). I put them on eBay and got $75 for them. I felt so bad I offered the guy free shipping.

[Funk Buddy]

Only a few come to mind all on eBay of course.

Saturn and one game for $60 more than I paid for it, plus shipping.

Saturn S video cables for $15 each plus shipping (cost $.99). Those days are over now but it was good while it lasted!

Steel Battalion for $100 more than I paid for it, plus shipping.

Selling NGPC titles for three times what I paid for them, plus shipping.

Selling "rare" Saturn games for three times what I paid for them, plus shipping.

Man... you gotta' love and hate eBay sometimes!

Not game related but...
I received an AOL Goo Goo Dolls picture disc packed in with a Maxim magazine.
I almost threw it in the trash, but I thought about eBay.
I started the auction at 99 cents and it ended at like 25 bucks or something.
At the time there was a buy it now out there that ended
at $75.00 but I would of felt bad with that kind of money.
I even felt bad about the 25 bucks LOL

[Sniderman]

I sell board games on eBay. And I've been STUNNED the amount some folks will pay for a board game - especially the Avalon Hill/Milton Bradley miltary sim games. Last couple of weeks, sold a Conquest of the Empire for $175 and a Rail Baron for $75. And don't even get me started on Dark Tower!

Yep :D And I had at least 3 copies of each and all of the other pay per view events from that year. LOL

QOTF's post reminded me of an Ultima 2 cloth map I had that went for $36.
