They're getting cheaper...

...Ikari Warriors and Motorodeo, I mean.

 

For example, I won this for the start bid. Not bad at all.

 

Then this pair sold for $75, factory sealed. (More Venezuelan stock. He has more, however, but he's selling individually for a fair bit more than that)

 

Looks like the market's getting flooded.

 

That's okay. CIB R9 for $45 shipped is right up my alley anyway.

Really nice score there Mindfield. I paid Mabb $150 for both plus shipping, and should be getting them in the mail soon. It's hard to believe these are still getting cheaper. Do they have thousands? Is the stock almost out? Who knows. Right now the only true value I can gauge is in the enjoyment of the games. I can't wait to play Motorodeo. Rare or not I want to use the game for its intentional purpose (albeit very carefully of course!).

Snag and a half.

I thought so. I was talking to the second seller there about scoring a pair for $80 at the same time that I was bidding on the first. I ended up winning the first though (quite unexpectedly, too) so now I just need the other one and I'll be pretty damn close to being title-complete on the Atari set (also quite unexpectedly. )

 

I figure the cheapness is a combination of the fact there have been quite a few available lately (especially from Venezuela) and also because this late in the holiday season most people are probably pretty tapped from buying gifts 'n stuff.
