Jodeus Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 Just curious why a complete copy of Narrow Escape just sold on eBay for $2000? Prices like that have me tempted to start selling! -Jody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine wasn’t complete with wheel, but did have box & game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like both bidders really wanted this item badly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vectrexer Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 (edited) Maybe more shill bidding by some WATA crew in performance of fake pricing statistics generation? Hope not. Edited December 22, 2021 by Vectrexer 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope not. Wata ya know, my first thoughts as well. Somebody that wants to buy up all of the 3D Narrow Escapes, sells their own and buys it back for some ridiculous price. They are out the eBay fees... but probably a good deal if you are trying to get everyone to start liquidating their collections. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blazing Lazers Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 I noticed that the recent price spike on the 3D games only happened after Racketboy put up an article about them. The very next listings that went up had mind-blowing ending prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMHO the sale prices at that level are happening way too soon to be realistically counted as an average auction proceedings for the Vectrex. Tor Vectrex 3D Narrow Escape or any other Vectrex 3D title (Crazy Coaster, Mine Storm). Even considering the current retro craze. But I guess i could be wrong,,,, uh-huh.....
