Ya, I stumbled upon this morning. I love how he points out it’s from “the late, great Curt Vendel.” [emoji1304]

Nothing like cashing in on someone’s death.

This is 100% for the shelf.  For that money, you can make a run of new HighScore carts.

It's not possible to contact the seller from the item page, otherwise I'd have told him that if someone is foolish enough to pay this amount, he should at least have the decency to donate a substantial part of the proceedings towards Curt's daughter's education fund.

There's a contact member link on the seller information page. I'm guessing it's just a lack of awareness of how it comes off though. I bought a high score cart for about $200 (iirc) prior to Curt's passing (maybe a year or two ago) and I thought that was a fair price for the seller and me. I'm not sure what the market value would actually be today since we don't see it very often.

And that is assuming it actually works. Many of them don't work properly as @CPUWIZ can attest too.

Correct. The HSC's where hit and miss at best. It was a very poorly executed project.
