MiamiSlice 1,358 Member · Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 This is a bonkers price IMO. I know this game has been looking scarce since COVID-mania started but come on. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Konami-Krazy-Racers-Nintendo-Game-Boy-Advance-2001-CIB-/224353590455?_trksid=p2349526.m4383.l10137.c10&nordt=true&rt=nc&orig_cvip=true Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sticking with GBA, I personally thought this was a little much, but the game is ultra-rare, so to each his own I guess https://www.ebay.com/itm/Brand-New-Sealed-Sega-Rally-For-GameBoy-Advance-Original-/133656418437?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&nma=true&si=aIbWKF99McchAr9r%2BTDfZ3SuAyw%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 Edited February 23 by Naked Warrior words 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DefaultGen 1,585 Member · Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Prices on Nintendo trading cards are way up. Everyone is trying to find the next Marvel Universe spike I think, I don't keep on track of cards much. Late December a Donkey Kong box sold for $50, January a case of 24 boxes sold for $1800 ($75/box), now individual boxes are selling for $300-400! I can't wait to see where this goes next honestly. I would not have guessed 1980s trading cards would be something exponentially increasing in price due to speculation. To anyone paying $100s for a box of Donkey Kong cards, where were you 3 months ago when you could barely give them away and why didn't you care then? How do these objects that have been junk for decades suddenly become hype machines? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RH 1,520 Member · Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Welp, I guess I need to stop giving away free Topps Nintendo Game Packs with purchase of my junk. A year ago, you use to be able to get $3-5 each. Looks like they can go for $10 now, and once the DK market shakes out, I'm sure the Nintendo Paks will heat up. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tanooki 1,392 Member · Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Wow on both Konami Krazy Racers and Sega Rally -- that's ridiculously inflated. Makes you just wish all this blows up in peoples faces once the vaccine is truly out and about in peoples systems and the money dries up. Anyone losing their ass on these big purchases speculating on it deserve to lose. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thank the Lord Lukie Games has it on sale!! (Except they are out of stock ) Hey I saw that on DealTavern’s Ebay store last year, it was one of the “more expensive” games meaning $40-50 and I’ve got too much bone fide good stuff on my want list to buy random DT sealed games I’ve never heard of in the hopes it will be some future gem.

jonebone 726 Member · Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 And I could go on and on about DealTavern games that sold out and have totally blown up to the moon in pricing. If you find ones that he has in nice shape (because it's a total crapshoot, some are junk and some are gem), then you always do well buying from him. Inventory has been picked pretty clean by this point but I'm sure there's still some that will inevitably spike. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I’ve seen the DealTavern guy on FB in some collecting groups and even he says that when he sells out of something the price goes up. It’s all perceived scarcity!

BriGuy82 406 Member · Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 I still have a case of the Jim Lee xmen cards I bought with my birthday money! From the case I was able to get 2 complete sets. One went straight from the packs into a binder and the 2nd set went straight into a clear plastic case. I was meticulous with how good I cared for my cards. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some PSA 10s are selling for $1000s and 9s for $100s, but by the time you submit your cards and get them back next year the bubble might burst! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
