JagLynx4Life Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Cause jaguars + the games are rare that why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danny_galaga Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 A lot of this you are seeing on ebay, no? What happens is people suddenly reminisce about the past, and then jump on ebay and buy up. AFTERWARDS they find forums etc and learn more about what things are worth. THEN they do a forehead slap and forever more pay realistic prices. It's what I did with the N64 some years ago Although I certainly didn't pay crazy high prices like you see with jaguar, mainly because there is a lot more N64 stuff out there. But I didn't wait for bargains either... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamer888 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 They are collectors, hardcore gamers, those who have different priorities.....for instance I would spend 300 dollars for a Jag CD but not 150 for the Xbox 360. You migth also wonder who are guys willing to spend 30 000 dollars for a car when 10 000 would be enough...who are those who dress like models yet can't afford to buy a TV. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmat80 Posted August 6, 2013 Author Share Posted August 6, 2013 But some of this stuff isn't that rare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocop2 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 There is also the "time is money" aspect of it all though. It's alot more convenient to buy X item on ebay when its sitting there at the ready, you can afford the price and want it now withouth scouring the forums or locally.

im_reg Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 I was going to bid on a sealed copy of Towers II but it went for just over £100! I've only a few Jag titles left to get but all are the £60+ ones; Worms, Skyhammer, Hyperforce, Soccer Kid etc. In time I hope to pick them up at reasonable prices. Just managed to snag a copy of Towers II today for £49. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
