You meant those auctions right? The current sealed Alien Crush auction has zero bids at $29.99.

One just ended at $30. The same seller sold another sealed copy for $33 two weeks ago.

I wonder what the next copy will sell for?

geise · 05/18/2016, 12:42 PM

$35. Because prices can only go up. Never down.

bob · 05/18/2016, 01:39 PM

dont forget, for this guy to "get" 69, it would have to sell for close to 80 when ebay and paypal fees are factored in. this guy is really a great addition to the community.

CrackTiger · 05/18/2016, 01:53 PM

I'm assuming that he didn't buy it at $90 and is taking a loss on his investment. This is likely one of the many copies that sold on eBay for <$30. Hopefully the rest weren't all snatched up by flippers.

crazydean · 05/18/2016, 07:47 PM

Would you trade for a loose copy of TV Sports Hockey? I appraised it at $70, so it's a good deal for you.

This is a ~ fair trade, but he might actually be getting a better deal—are you OK with that?

ToyMachine78 · 05/18/2016, 08:36 PM

I got a cic Gunboat I'd trade

dallaspattern · 05/18/2016, 10:57 PM

seieienbu · 05/22/2016, 04:11 PM

I'd kind of like a copy so I'll go ahead and offer $25. You'll save money on the ebay fees for the current trending price of $30. This way you make a couple of bucks and I save a few. Win win. What do you say?

wildfruit · 05/23/2016, 02:45 AM

I just want the cellophane. How much for that?

jbeedham · 05/28/2016, 10:30 PM

Bump for the price drop. It is now $68. Ok I know it is not much of a price drop but I plan to drop the price $1 per week until it sells. So in 68 weeks it will be free. ;)

Don't forget to factor in shipping on those auctions as I'm offering free shipping. Sorry if price seems high to some but it looks like I have the best price online right now for a sealed copy as far as I know. I couldn't bring myself to tearing the seal open so I decided to just sell it. Also, I have a job and quite frankly if I wanted to give this thing away I would have dropped it off at the Salvation Army.

bob · 05/28/2016, 11:03 PM

lol, this just keeps getting better.

gatsu25 · 05/28/2016, 11:21 PM

You mean 68 weeks and then ask him to post a video of the Sally Ann donation.

So essentially, rather than man-up and just openly state a price you'd be comfortable letting it go for (In light of everyone telling you your asking price is way too much), your just going to see how much you can gouge people for by slightly lowering it over time.

<slow claps>

Way to make friends with the community! But considering you only have like 9 posts, your probably here just to use the "Buy and sell" forums as your personal eBay. So I guess you won't be here much longer after this sells will you?

wildfruit · 05/29/2016, 04:25 PM

68 Zimbabwe dollars

looks like he's selling it on ebay too, he didn't even apply the SUPER AMAZING price drop

Lol, he's trying to get $350 for a non-new AES Magician Lord.

seieienbu · 05/30/2016, 05:10 AM

Since you dropped down a bit, I'll up my offer to $26.

Wow, that's 10 times the price I remember when I was looking for it.

esteban · 05/31/2016, 04:04 AM

Surely, this has to be a joke, correct?

BigusSchmuck · 05/31/2016, 10:10 PM

The fact I can get it over at Amazon new for $50 plus free shipping should be like a clue..

What you see is the Japanese Plastic Case version of Magician Lord which is more valuable than the American version. FYI, last American version I sold for around $110.

What you see is a post where someone has pulled information out their ass, very common, not really worth anything at the end of the day.

CrackTiger · 06/02/2016, 09:03 PM

The Japanese AES Magician Lord is actually selling on eBay for 1/3 to 1/2 that price and the cart, manual and insert have been selling for $30 - $40 each.

I'm not talking about the fact that a few years ago both regions rotted away unsold on eBay with asking prices of <$50. I'm aware of the existence of collectards.
