+Gemintronic Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Good Deal Games is selling Cye for over $300 bucks! Er, why? http://www.gooddealgames.com/inventory/Colecovision.html Is the last copy of a homebrew really that zomg rare? Not complaining. Just don't understand why they think that's reasonable.

NIAD Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Rarity isn't a strange beast at all PixelBoy, but the human mind on the other hand would definitely count as a strange beast! I kept putting off buying Cye CIB from GDG for over two years until a couple weeks ago when I finally decided to purchase it and another PkK game. Well, let's just say that I'm glad that I did so when I did seeing as it only cost me $34.75. I guess this can all revert back to the "Free/Open Market" argument, but to see a distributor of Homebrews jumping on the bandwagon in such a manner is a little disconcerting to say the least even though it's well within their rights to do so. Like anything else of this manner, the game will sit there unsold until the price is adjusted accordingly and in the meantime I am sure that other CIB copies will show up in the usual places at more respectable starting prices. Good Luck to all who need it for their collection in finding it at a fair price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+nanochess Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I'm also somewhat confused. I think that maybe is a finger mistake, because of this I don't have updated the price in my Colecovision Homebrew List. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+nanochess Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Just I've contacted Michael and he says is a mistake, the right price is $39.75 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeizerGhidorah Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Just looked at the GDG website, and it's listed for $39.75. Maybe someone made a mistake and corrected it? ..and it looks like Nanochess beat me to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I wonder if someone had bought and paid the $359.75 price tag, if a refund would have been offered? I'm sorry for speaking my mind like this but I DID wake up on the wrong side of the bed today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+evg2000 Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I actually sent him and email checking on the price, and then actually bought it as my list didn't show me as owning it. Don't know how I would have missed it. Or I do have it, but it isn't added to my list and in a few months when I start unpacking my collection I will realize I have two. OP, thanks for posting this topic as I may have missed out on this title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 OP, thanks for posting this topic as I may have missed out on this title. It's actually a very fun and challenging mind game (I'm a sucker for these) once you dedicate the time to playing thru all the levels. It doesn't have all the fancy graphics and sound effects of other Homebrew titles, but without a doubt it offers a lot of play value versus the price.

NIAD Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 (edited) P.S. Well actually the price of roughly $40, not $360! Edited February 2, 2013 by NIAD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted February 3, 2013 Author Share Posted February 3, 2013 Actually, I just shot myself in the foot by making this topic. Think of all the eBay moneys I could have made! Seriously, you guys are awesomely pro-active. I'm glad someone stepped up and contacted GoodDealGames. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
