Quoted from Haymaker:Thats actually false. Trying to get a hold of some of the truly rare games usually takes more than just cash. Most of these types of collectors have plenty of cash. Its easy to go buy a normal game, you're not just gonna go out and get a goin nuts or something usually unless you have something else desirable to trade, as cash is pretty unimportant when you've got certain tastes and tons of cash to begin with. These types of games usually just trade hands behind the scenes with elite collectors, and not usually just for cash.
Agreed. As someone who owns several one-of-a-kind games (and other items) and some other games with incredibly low production numbers, I can say that this is very true at times. Money means nothing to a lot of people.
In some cases relationships have to be formed, or your use for the games/items needs to be something that is of greater meaning to them than owning it themselves. As frustrating as it can be at times, it's nice to see that some things out there are still meaningful and more valuable than what monetary value someone else tries to put on them.
