Just went to Circuit City.
Bought the one with the Zelda Collectors Disc.
Came home and put the disc on Ebay with a $50.00 BIN , Pay-Pal immediately and it sold in 3 hours.

Long story short. I now have a brand new $50.00 GameCube :D

I can't believe how many people are paying 50 for a game that comes free with a subscription to Nintendo power... It doesn't help that stores advertise that it is a 70 dollar value (Canadian $$ of course) I should sign up for a couple more subscriptions LOL Thats one hell of a profit.

People are fish. Drop a little food in the water and they jump for it.

Lol.

I wouldn't pay more than $20 for a disc. I'd pay more for the previous bonus discs, though the fixed framerate in this newest one is nice.

God, i've got this load of extra pin numbers sitting around, I should register them all and make myself a few hundred dollars off the discs.

But I'm too nice :(

OMG....I cant believe someone is selling links to a Nintendo website to get the disk. What a fucking idiot! Hes got 99 left, either he sold one or only listed 99...i think ill watch this auction to see how many buy it

Oh and did I mention that next week if Wal-Mart does offer them for $79.99 with the disc, I'll be taking my receipt to Circuit City and getting the price match . That'll be another $20.00 off . :D

The reason I did it now is because by next week when people start getting in their discs from Nintendo , and if Wal-Mart does offer the package for $79.99. Ebay will be flooded with these discs . I forsee the price dropping to $20-$25 for them after next week.
