atari2600land's Blog - Ignorance or Greed?

[RSS Bot]

Why are people selling R6 VCS games for $50 on eBay? Is it out of sheer ignorance, like saying "Gee, this video game is old, it must be worth a fortune!". Or is it greed, hoping some ignorant person will stumble upon it and pay $50 not realizing it's worth about 10% of that? Either way, sellers like that on eBay are stupid and dumb and I want them to stop it. If it is pure ignorance, why not GOOGLE it, come across this site, and ask a fair price? If it's greed, they deserve a public flogging at a classic video gaming expo (and then set on fire until they die.) I know I'm being mean to the greedy, but COME ON! Even if someone DID stumble on it not knowing the price, THEY WOULDN'T PAY EVEN $50 FOR JUST ONE GAME! Not in any economy! Sorry, I just had to rant.
