Quoted from Shoot_Again:

I assumed it would take a while to sell, but did not expect so many lowball offers and hate of my pricing.

1. Bad timing (summer, GB hype train)

combined with

2. High end titles have dropped and continue to drop (few people are willing to buy what were traditionally thought of as A listers for north of 6k; esp when they can get the next new game for that price or less)

combined with

3. Threat of remake and percieved value in longer term. MMRr with AFMr as next brings greater instability to the high end market.

combined with

4. many people would need to ship when dealing in the high $ market and whom wants to ship when dealing with high value games (doubel edged)

Reality is that nice restored AFM sell for sub 8k (a Bryan Kelly full restore pimped out just sold for under 8k locally 2 months ago), so players condition are more like 6500. I think 6500 and local and your AFM woudl be sold.

Quoted from Shoot_Again:

Ebay and CL here I come

good idea! casting a wider net is always a good idea when trying to sell high $ games.

Quoted from LadySlingshot:

People want what's new versus what's old. Lots of great games from the past out there, but with GB, TBL, TH, FullT, Alien, Star Wars, RZ, Dominos all out or coming out soon, you can see why people are either saving or selling vs buying old.

actually Chris, I would say the opposite if true for many people.

I have been on a terror of buying old classics and have very little interest in all but a slect few new games.
