speaks for itself O_O

For the last month or so there have been 4 or 5 of these complete or new listed that have averaged less than $35. I've been wanting it, but waiting to see the avg price (Saved search for Tengen Tetris). Oh well I guess insanity time is arriving on ebay.

I saw a complete one from that seller that sold his mint collection, tons of boxed games, end at 35-35 bucks, somewhere in that range, and it was mint/complete.

That price doesnt surprise me for some reason :/

But I would personally pay around 50 for a mint complete copy.

I am surprised that the seller didn't list it as factory sealed. You know the classic auction title that lists factory sealed open copy. Great stuff.

Typically (at least in the past 18 months) if it has the poster with it, it automatically goes over $65. The funny thing is that recently a factory sealed one only sold for $50 or so. $90 is a little excessive, but it was quite nice. It seems that every year the insanity gets worse and worse around the holidays. $75 last year, $90 this year, maybe $120 next, who knows??

Yep, the merry months of November & December, when all the stuff that you've been searching a lifetime for finally shows up, and dozens of other people are there to fight you for it, and make sure that it costs a fortune! I'll be glad when it's over, because I'm not looking forward to all the stuff that I'm gonna have to pass up. I just don't have enough fighting money saved.

I love the holiday season for a similar reason - people need money at this time of year, all the best stuff makes it onto the market :D

nope. I bought the box for 10 from a forum member about a year and half ago and the game and instructions for 25 on ebay about a year ago

so, it wasn't me

Hehe, same here. :) I have a bunch of junk I've had kicking around since the summer. I find I'm often disappointed with my sales, but this the first time I'm making a point to sell during the Christmas shopping period. I hope I do well. :) (Especially since my own Christmas shopping depends on it, haha.)
