Quoted from pinlink:I'd love for them to chime in with what they paid. They are not basing it off what they paid, but what they hope it is now worth. You think they all paid 4-4500? You're kidding yourself.
I'm sure you're going to come back with a snarky response to me, but maybe people posting on here really do know what the going price is...and maybe you might be open to actually listening to them instead of flatly just discounting their opinion. There are always exceptions to "average" prices. There are super low prices, and super high prices that aren't the norm. That said, the average price is definitely higher than it was a few years ago. That's just the reality.
If you are patient, you may find a better deal, but average price point has risen. It happens. You have given your opinion, and you don't need to get nasty with people who might not agree with you.
And my disclaimer...over the last 5 years I have bought and sold this game several times personally so I do speak from experience. And I don't currently own it.
