    Wow some folks in this thread got extremely offended for the seller... I woulda thought you’re one of those “Social Justice” types going around getting offended FOR people!

    The guy mistyped, he’s not lowballing the hell out of someone. High end of the game is 4K, he offered half of market value but what he meant to say was based off the condition he made an offer that estimated the game’s value at about half of its high, restored/shopped price.

    Someone went on eBay and saw the game sold for 7k once or something like that. That’s fine, people do dumb shit like that all the time.

    Check my “How much is a Non-working SFII worth?” Thread. The seller’s reasoning was:
    New-in-box pinball machines sell for 6-7 thousand dollars, so clearly my 25 year old game full of mouse shit is worth like 2k, right?
    As if “pinball” just covers all of them.
    Like when you buy “car” car is car and if one car sells for 100k then every car is worth that.
