Title: Auction Watch! what are things fetching?
Post by: Carlos on March 11, 2012, 18:56:30 PM
Hi,

This is the auction watch thread, if you see any item on any web site that may help others in a indicative way as to value please post the link or a screen grab here.

guidelines 

1. no pimping - hawking of any item that you are selling is prohibited, you are welcome advertise the wares you have to offer elsewhere on this site.

2.We want you to signpost any thing you see that may either help like minded members of our community, if that means you are wanting to post because you feel  its a particularly good/ bad offer then you can say so under the premiss that this a ' collectively sourced' thread so the opinions of the posters is not  the opinion of the forum staff therefore they cannot be responsible for the eventual final value of an item that has been featured here,  a policy of 'buyer beware' is often a good practice.

thats that all sorted, so if you want to add to the thread please do!   :)

Wow those Atom's certainly seem to fetch a pretty price!  :o

I would prefer that QL myself. Interesting to see the Atom is Potters Bar, I used to live near there.

Apart from the fact it is a sealed console, Is there something that I have missed that means it should go for such a high price?

This auction could end at 8000-10000 Euros, if it's a legit cart:
http://www.ebay.de/itm/KIZUNA-ENCOUNTER ... 0804182756 (http://www.ebay.de/itm/KIZUNA-ENCOUNTER-Super-Tag-Battle-NEO-GEO-MODUL-/160804182756)

The European version of Kizuna is the rarest Neo Geo home cart with only 6 known copies sold at retail... all in Germany. The Neo Geo community is arguing over whether it's legit or counterfeit so the seller is going to need to post some additional pics/info/proof. If it's proven to be legit, the final price should put most 'rare' videogame auctions to shame.

The ultra-rare Kizuna Encounter AES that was pulled from ebay before the auction ended a couple months ago is BACK.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Kizuna-Encounte ... _500wt_950 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Kizuna-Encounter-Super-Tag-Battle-fur-Neo-Geo-/160857481955?pt=DE_PC_Videospiele&hash=item2573da62e3#ht_500wt_950)

Neo Geo community is flooded with drama lately. A reputable community member 'discovered' six unreleased US Aero Fighters 3 AES carts. All six were sold to private buyers at prices up to $30,000. (!) Now they are suspected to be counterfeit and lots of public haggling over refunds or possible lawsuits.

Now this similar rarity Kizuna Encounter is back up for auction. Even if it's legit, it won't reach the Aero Fighters 3 price... but it should still be a ridiculous amount.

Hardcore Neo Geo collectors are insane. Besides the winner, there were two other bidders offering over 10000 Euros in the last 30 seconds. The winner had already entered a higher max. Insane.

I entered a token bid on the first day of the auction just to be on 'the list'. Now, when I look at the bidder list, it says 'Sorry, you were outbid.' :D
Guess I'll stick with my $40 Kizuna Encounter MVS cart.

Just found a large collection of consoles, most boxed, some limited edition, with some sealed games and a quickshot supervision handheld. Quite a haul but not quite sure if it is worth £1,199.00

When you add all of that up I reckon that is actually a really good price, especially as there are limited edition consoles in there too.

It's actually not all of the Naomi games... not even half. The Naomi/Naomi 2 had over 200 game releases... more games than the Neo Geo MVS!

The Sega Pluto prototype that was listed on GameGavel a while ago never met the reserve so it's now up on ebay. It's over $15,000 now and still hasn't met the reserve but there's still a couple hours left so should be interesting to see what it ends up at and if it does get sold.

OK, so it seems there are people out there who are just doing their best to charge absurd prices for retro gaming stuff.  Here is the Vec2Arcade controller for the Vectrex.  Yes, this is a homebrew-built piece of hardware but the asking price (£450.00 or $688.00) is a bit too much.  As nice as the controller is, I don't think it'll sell for that much money.  Take a look at the auction:  Vec2cade Vectrex Controller (//http).

Oh, that would be great, thanks. Just drop me a pm if you don't mind. I recall looking online at the tRu site and nothing showed up so if there are a few new ones in this country, I would be very interested. The Flashback 4 is by far the better one of these consoles, they finally put some decent games with it.

I would get it if I were you because it will cost you a lot more to import from the US (where Trek is)

I agree.  Jump on it because it will cost more with the shipping.

Quote from: "Cryptic33"On a happy, personal note, I thought lets look up the Atari Flashback 4 again and sure enough it is available on ebay.com (//http) from a US seller for $49.97 + $33.86 P&P

(http://www.argos.co.uk/wcsstore/argos/images/25-9058376UC1415671X.jpg)

However, for reasons I don't understand, it is also now available again in Argos (//http) for £42.99. Now bear with me, this is where it gets crazy, there is only one left and it is in my local shop/store :13:

[size=180]I have reserved it!!! [/size]

They seem to be in stock all over the place at  argos, but £40+ seems mental, surely closer to £20 would make more sense, or am i missing something. I can see them on ebay/amazon for ~£25
Title: Re: Auction Watch! what are things fetching?
Post by: Cryptic33 on August 20, 2013, 17:59:42 PM
Yes £20 would be fairer but this is rip-off Britain :19:

Incidentally, I just checked again and I don't see them for the figures you stated. There is one on Amazon.com not Amazon.co.uk. I guess I should have been more specific about it being here in the UK. The one on eBay is also from the US at least that is what I am getting from Google. I did also say they seem to be in more Argos stores but locally to me there are only two stores and now only one of them have a stock of 1. I guess it is all apples and pears like so much stuff in the gaming world. I have been after one of these for a while now so I snapped up the first one that was reasonably affordable and local as they are becoming rarer each year.

eBay (//http)

Amazon.com (//http)

Don't forget the shipping costs and when they say 'free shipping' it does not mean international. If you have found them cheaper then may others will be interested, we all like a bargain :)

there were also flash back 3's at £28 listed on google when i searched but clicking in add about £18 of postage...grrr..seems like a good price at argos after all. I shall shut up in future :)

This guy just doesn't get it! He's been listing this on ebay and gamegavel for months now and every time he puts a reserve on it and every time it doesn't reach it. You would think he would have figured out by now that people don't like reserves and wont bid on it just because of that. He did lower the BIN price this time though, maybe he lowered the reserve too.

It's not "absolutely mint" because the seller states it has "a little age yellowing and the main box (is) a bit worn".

The seller is the owner/admin of JSII, and yeah he's got a lot of cool stuff! He must have bought a lot of stuff when Atari was cleaning out their HQ at the end, just a guess though.

The thought crossed my mind whether the seller may be Jay or BuddyBuddies. Either way, it kinda figures.

Some strong prices for some of those items there!

At Jagfest back in 2010 somebody was selling 3 of these. 1 had belonged to Jeff Minter, 1 had belonged to James "Purple" Hampton who was one of the coders of Alien Vs. Predator and I can't remember the origins of the 3rd unit. This is probably one of those, especially given who is selling it.

Nice price though Kev, I was offered one for a lot less than that! They can't even play retail games so are pretty useless unless you like collecting stuff.

It was at the time 10 times faster that BASIC. the 4000 is the rare variant of the ACE that was already mega rare.
I was given an ACE in the late eighties, I took it apart and glued the keyboard to my computer studies folder. Way to go Carl!

Pretty much the same as the MD2 power base converter, but those are very rare so this is a neat idea.

Only problem with this is that it is missing the card slot that you get on the model 1 PBC, so you can't play card games or use the 3D glasses.

This is where you and I disagree as I think this is priced about right although the XE light gun is getting more scarce.

Then we are both right, in a way, because you are referring to current auction prices and whilst we both agree this is a fair price, clearly, it is cheap from what you have gleaned from the market trend. I just think the majority of retro stuff is way too pricey. Still, that gun is a nice find as an addition/starter to XE light gun games :)

Post by: Shadowrunner on April 13, 2014, 01:31:53 AM
Yeah there's a few factors here. The biggest problem in my eyes is they only ever advertised the game on AA, and it doesn't take a genius to figure out that a lot of Jag fans don't go near that place! They made two small runs which quickly sold out and are talking about doing a third, but once again they are only judging interest from AA members.
And also, Jag collectors can get a little nutty  :21:

Post by: 64bitRuss on April 13, 2014, 01:46:15 AM
This is why Songbird is to be respected. Carl maintains his stock of games and keeps the market price for Songbird titles consistent. The above is the problem of the homebrewer, as mentioned not gauging demand properly, and obviously not selling the game at an adequate price also. These idiot homebrewers actually listen to the whining of forum members about high prices of games, like I witnessed when Total Carnage was released for $90, but guess what? Total Carnage is still $90 brand new to this day, and is still a million times the game that any of these Jaguar 'homebrewers' can ever dream of releasing.

The point is, make plenty of copies, and sell it at a higher price! I think most of the homebrewers are just looking for their ego's to be massaged over making any money with their time and work they are so eager to boast about when people dare to speak up that their games are indeed trash for the most part, even free ones. They should pay me to play some of those games!

I have the special edition which has a white case if I remember correctly, and the standard edition has a blue case, or it could be the other way around, but in any case there was never a green case! Now it's possible they just put it in another case, but the disc doesn't look right to me either  :39:

The price Gorf went for is pretty average for a regular edition, but the other two blew me away! I've never seen Mad Bodies or Blackout go for that much before :) I would never pay that much for Mad Bodies though, probably wont ever own that one!

Post by: TrekMD on February 10, 2015, 20:14:55 PM
The price for Mad Bodies fluctuates a lot.  I've seen it go for about that much before but then it sells for $120 or so weeks later.  I guess it depends on who wants it.  The price for Blackout did surprise me, though!

That Intellivision game went for just over $1400 :13:

Here's something I've been watching just because I'm curious to see how high it goes.

I bought most of my Jaguar collection between 3 and 5 years ago, and I'm sure glad I did! I can't believe how much this stuff is going for these days, it's easily doubled or even tripled in value over the past few years and it just keeps going up! This is a big lot sure, but all the carts are loose and nothing super rare. Still 3 days left in the auction too, crazy!

Yeah, people are strange when it comes to auctions that have really high opening bids or buy it now prices. Over and over again I see games with low starting bids end up selling for a lot more than another auction for the same game with a buy it now price. People just like the thrill of the bidding war even if it means they are paying more money for it. I don't get it!

Is it because it's particularly rare?

I was watching the Gorf auction just to see what it went for. It was a little low but the price of that game fluctuates quite a bit.

Unfortunately I don't own a Nuon but if I did I would definitely want a copy of Tempest 3000!

I watched that GORF auction for 7 days hoping it would go through the roof. Thought for sure it would sky rocket in the closing seconds. Guess not, but good for walterj64. Not a bad return on an 11 year old investment of $30 (iirc)

Seeing that price makes me really glad I bought two of these years ago before they got so expensive! I keep seeing people saying the retro game bubble is going to burst but yet the price of this stuff just keeps going up and up!

Wow, there's a copy of Dino Park Tycoon up on  ebay (http://www.ebay.ca/itm/RARE-DinoPark-Tycoon-3DO-1994-Version-RARE/262666011948?_trksid=p2050601.c100085.m2372&_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D35909%26meid%3D2a7f46bc5ac1443eade64b764e83f1df%26pid%3D100085%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D272409069453%26clkid%3D8883310430049280560&_qi=RTM2247626)! For those who don't know, this is like the holy grail of 3DO games. It was the last game released for the system and the console was pretty much dead at that point so nobody bought it. Nobody seems to know how many copies were made but it takes months and sometimes over a year for the game to show up for sale. I'd love to own it but it's a little pricey!

If it was complete with the long box and manual I'd submit an offer or two and see how low he would go. With just the disc and case though it's too much.

I hear that. Never heard of it before and based on your description I was wondering if that's how it originally came. Good to know it was a full release but yeah, if that's the case it doesn't really warrant an offer at that initial price. Unless you were the kind of collector who'd be happy making their own box, etc. But it still wouldn't be genuine so, worthless imo.
Title: Re: Auction Watch! what are things fetching?
Post by: Shadowrunner on October 11, 2016, 21:04:25 PM
Yeah, it was a full release with box. I decided to see what info I could find on the game and according to Wikipedia it was released in 1994. There's no source so I thought maybe they had it wrong but then I came across a scan of the manual and it says 1994 too. So, it was nowhere near the last game released for the system. Now I'm really curious as to why they made so few copies of the game, and why people claim it was the last released game!

Yeah for something like this I don't think anyone would try to stop it. 3DO sold the rights to Panasonic who ended up putting the tech in vending machines and kiosks instead of releasing the console. Unfortunate but with the runaway success of the PS1 they probably made the right decision.
