But this search shows a great history. If you search eBay active auctions, the only one that comes up is $119. When you check the completed auctions, as the link above, you see the same guys has relisted his at $119 every three days for a month. At the bottom of the search history, the auctions which reflect real interest. $10 and $16 ending prices. Just because you want it to be the price, doesn't mean it will be. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a seller that has listed the exact same lot of Intellivision games & system over and over for the last year at least relisting at the same rediculous price every time. I always recognize the same picture beacuse they display them on the stairs (landing) of their house. I can't understand what would make you think they're worth that when you've relisted at least 50 times now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre81 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 If you have a huge stock to sell you probably get the most out of it if you list it at ridiculous prices. Say you list them at 500% of their market value, then you only need to sell 1/4 of your stock at that price. You will still have a steady cashflow at 200% or 300% or maybe even more.

+cvga Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I've never seen that particular handheld before. I have the D&D and a football handheld in that same Mattel casing. What else did they make? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
