AtariLeaf Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 They seem to go for $20 - $25 US. Is this normal for a rarity 5 or is the price inflated recently because of a low supply on ebay? I think there is currently only one on ebay. Other 5's such as Pitfall II and HERO can be had for $10 or $12 bucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaManFan Posted January 1, 2003 Share Posted January 1, 2003 They seem to go for $20 - $25 US. Is this normal for a rarity 5 or is the price inflated recently because of a low supply on ebay? I think there is currently only one on ebay. Other 5's such as Pitfall II and HERO can be had for $10 or $12 bucks Sadly I payed $20 for a Pitfall II. I was pissed off about losing auctions for it all the time so I went gung-ho to get one instead of sniping a low priced one, then finding out a friend got one in a common bin for a $1 a few days later - then finding one for a $1 a few days after that myself! I never did decide but I thought about selling off my spare to recoup the money; possibly as a combo pack with Pitfall for $20 BIN on ePay.

AtariLeaf Posted January 1, 2003 Author Share Posted January 1, 2003 I just picked up both pitfall 1 & 2 for $9.50 US but I figured Star Wars arcade was only slightly higher then that perhaps but maybe because its not seen as often as Pitfall 2? I guess rarity doesn't matter as much as availability when it comes to ebay. If there were twenty SW:A on ebay at any one time I guess it could be had for a much lesser price. (Is that proper grammer, it doesn't sound as gooder) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sku_u Posted January 2, 2003 Share Posted January 2, 2003 I think that with the Activision Anthology out for PS2, there's less demand for original Activision titles despite their rarity. Throw in Actiplaque as another reason higher rarity Activision titles are not worth as much as Star Wars Arcade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holygrailvideogames.com Posted January 2, 2003 Share Posted January 2, 2003 Star War titles sell for more because a lot of Star War collectors buy the titles for their collection even if they don't own a video game system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariLeaf Posted January 2, 2003 Author Share Posted January 2, 2003 Odd. After Phantom Menace and Clones I didn't think there was such a thing as a Star Wars collector or fan anymore. . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Atari Posted January 2, 2003 Share Posted January 2, 2003 Clone Wars was much better than Phantom Menace . It's just the collectors value, because these are SW games. Even ESB is bought often, and that's the most common one (but then, people buy Combat on ebay, so who knows). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattG/Snyper2099 Posted January 2, 2003 Share Posted January 2, 2003 I remember two years ago, a friend of mine, and fellow collector of Atari, had been looking for this and offered $20 to anyone with an available one and I'm not sure if he evn has to this date to tell the truth. He collected action figures as well so maybe he was willing to pay more than the going price??? I had to give up a copy of Spy Hunter for my copy of this game. That was four years ago. I viewed it as a $25 trade at the time but today, it may be more like a $20 trade. MattG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
