Quoted from Mike_J:If you can't handle that $12,500 CE taking a big hit, you probably shouldn't buy it.
I concur ... what CE buyers need to realise is whatever happens, they’re gonna take a big hit on that $12,500. When you can buy a brand new game with the same play features for $8500 (which will be cheaper when on the used market) who’s gonna pay big bucks for some “collectors edition”?
I’ll wager that within 12 months of release a CE will be selling for $10k and in 2 years $8k. Nobody has a crystal ball, but that’s my gut feeling on what will happen.
I’m absolutely astounded that Aussies have been buying POTC CE at $19,500 Aussie dollars. That’s an insta-loss of at least $5000 as soon as you sell it, mark my words.
