    Don’t @ me—Or, the “say whatever you want” thread

    in Everything Else

    Posted · Edited by attakid101

    This is a place for you to air your repressively stifled opinions with impunity.

    We’re not here to argue, in fact the fundamental nature of this thread precludes argument. Don’t fucking @ me, dawg.

    Cats are useless animals doted over by the emotionally isolated. 

    America is the best damn country on the planet no matter who’s steering the ship.

    Memes are not an identity. Get a personality.

    You’re racist. Everybody knows it. Just admit it already, damn.

    God is dead. And we killed him. How? We created him, duh.

    Ass>Tits

    Conservatives are evil. But they have god on their side and too many voters are theistic

    Pineapple has no damn business on pizza

    Nobody cares that you’re a vegan

    Pat The NES Punk is okay

    If you post something in this thread that gets you banned, you’re dumb

    Don’t @ me

    Are you thinking about selling?

    Alright, I think we can all agree that prices are dumb right now. There’s already plenty of talk here on VGS about this...and here’s another thread for ya!

    What I wanna know is—are you guys thinking about selling? Have you already started?

    I’m of the opinion that prices will not stay dumb for long. I think things will eventually cool down and maybe I’ll miss the cash-in boat.

    Look what some maniac paid for this Star Fox comp cart... 

    Now it’s probable that this is an anomalous sale. I doubt I would get the same price if I sold mine. Still though...that’s a big ass number.

    I’ll be honest I’m thinking about listing mine...plus a few other heavy hitters.

    What about you guys? You gonna sell or stay the course?

     Agree!! II cut loose with most of my PS1 because the prices were out of control. Between my sealed find from years ago to just picking stuff up at garage sales for ps1, I have cleared 10k+. Still have some bangers too 😉 

     

    Cant believe what some stuff goes for. 

    Can you tell us about your sealed find?

    Boy I'll say, you pick being a carpenter in Oregon Trail you only get half the starting money a banker does!  But at least you get 2x points if you make it to the end.  It would make sense if your odds of repairing your wagon wheels/spokes/whatever were increased too but I don't think the game does that.

    I don’t know if I like you or hate you.

    What’s up with the Saturn market? Prices seem all over the place.

    It just went insane a couple months ago. I picked up a few games in January and they've all doubled in price. Just wait until next November and they'll all probably be half price again. It's a crazy market. 

    I’m with you. As much as I’d like to believe that I got in early enough to avoid the crazy price jumps, I think the more sensible explanation is that these are temporary spikes that’ll level out soon.

    I’ve only recently gotten into Saturn collecting. But in that short time I’ve seen prices bounce around like crazy. The whole scene appears to be very volatile.

    I remember passing on House of the Dead for ~$150 and now it’s over $300

    I picked up Magic Knight Rayearth for ~$300 then it shot up to over $400 then back down to $300 then over $600(!)

    I paid less than $600 for Panzer Dragoon Saga and shortly after that I saw it shoot up to $800-$900–so is that the new asking price? Of course not. I fully expect it to drop back down to $600 at some point.

    Got Albert Odyssey for $120 and now it’s trending over $250

    These are just a few examples. I can list loads more.

    Now I know there are pricing factors to consider—like condition, variants, hype, etc. But these fluctuations seem extreme even with those variables in mind. 

    Has the Saturn market always been like this or is this just an anomalous trend? Will things eventually stabilize? Do any of you Nintendo fanboys even give a shit? 

    Haha seriously though, where are my Sega nerds?

    Nice collection. My favorite SNES era Standees are Super Metroid's Samus and the Donkey Kong Country. Have you ever seen the animated DKC Standee where he moves the barrel above his head? I've only seen one but I lost the old video of it running. It's on YouTube somewhere.

    Yeah I’ve seen that motorized DKC standee. It’s gorgeous. Never seen it for sale. I’m hopeful that I’ll one day find the Super Metroid standee though.
