Just for my curiosity- how much is the German great soccer card worth?. I think in complete Condition about 100Euros (on EBay). Most of the Buy it Now Auctions are higher, but nobody buys it for that Price.

Just for my curiosity- how much is the German great soccer card worth?. Yes, it´s about 100€ worth for quite some years now. The resellers won´t sell their overpriced copies either. But to pay 100 or more is not recommended for such a crappy game ------------------------ Little off topic (or not?): I have a little story to tell about an SNES game called Incantation. Here in Berlin, there´s a video games shop with a turkish owner. The last time I was there is 2 years ago. I was complaining all the time why he refuses to price all his boxed SNES games. He promised he will do when he finds the time for it, but now, two years later, he didn´t. Another collector told me that it was even the case 5 years ago. I´ve noticed he has a complete and mint copy of Incantation, which has Ebay BINs starting at 300€. I have this came but cart only, so I was talking with my girlfriend how we could manage it to get this game. She went to the shop with her little niece (without me - the guy knows me and he knows that I´m a collector) under the pretence she wants to buy it for her, because they watched it on the internet and her niece wants to play it. They were very very close to get it, but then the guy scanned the barcode (certainly on Amazon), and then he started to be very serious and created a pathetic excuse to not sell it to her (she saw at his eyes that he was lying). He noticed the online prices and refused to sell it, that f***in´ gangster. My girlfriend was wondering that a turkish seller is doing things like these, but we guess that his shop is only camouflage for illegal business he´s doing. He also has games like Wolfenstein and Doom, all CIB, but he never sells them. He is in the mid 50´s, I wonder if he wants to keep them until he dies. Very strange stuff, but it annoys me that we weren´t able to rescue this game into my collector´s hands.

Interesting story, Gordman. Incantation is a very scarce game for the SNES. It is odd he hasn't priced his stock up in 5 yrs, I cannot believe a seller of classic games would not know an estimate price for games such as these. I like how you sent your gf and her niece in to do your dirty work, lol. What do you suspect his place is a front for?

But the reason why he doesn´t show his nintendo games to his customers must be another. Maybe he is keeping them because he thinks they will still go up in prices. Or they are ALL listed on the web for crazy prices. But for Incantation, he seemed to be unaware of it. It sucks, his customers are begging to see the games, he refuses. No matter who is asking him. By the way, it wasn´t my idea, it was the idea of my gf haha^^ But I had the same idea before her XD

I know this stuff Gordman. Dresden, Leipzig, Essen, Duisburg,... all the pawn shop owners have started jumping on the train and are milking it for what it's worth. I barely find a dealer nowadays who still puts prices on his stuff. Some of them have started calling themselves "Games Dealers", but they don't know sh)t. They will just look on Ebay or Amazon, then make up some price on the fly. If they are nice, they will call the ambulance after you laughed yourself to death. And I never see them sell anything. The stuff is just rotting in the shelves. And they never back off from prices they once set. Problem is, several of the dealers I know have resorted to buy stuff from ebay directly in a speculative manner, aiming for sets and splitting them up, asking for full prices on the individual pieces. Then they are suprised to find out that the worst area of Bochum doesn't have many running customers for a 300€ Whirlo.
My best guess is that your dealer simply realized he might get a higher price for his stuff elsewhere and that your girlfriend is not his target demography. I stopped buying from such guys a long time ago because I don't want to tip them off needlessly.
If I had to blame someone it would probably be ebay themselves. Reducing the insertion fee to zero means that people can now put up stuff at imaginary prices over and over without repercussions. Dealers see those offers and take them at face value resulting in them trying to charge even more for their own stuff. I can even imagine people putting up items at a much too high price intentionally in the hopes of raising the bar. It feels a little bit like the stock market, only that the participants are much much dumber.

I absolutely agree with you desperado . Hard times today. I´m focussed on homebrew games and professional new releases for classic systems for quite some time now, which has the positive effect that I get the games directly from their creators. But regarding classic games collecting, we can only wait for other collectors who are giving up their collections. To find some gems in the wild for fair prices is pretty hard now. I will probably never get a copy of Pocky & Rocky 2. I can´t even remember when I made my last big deal in a shop. It makes no sense for us to visit their shops, in fact they should close their shops to make online trading only. Most of the time they only survive by selling used handys.. ridiculous^^ PS: Sorry bela22 for getting so off topic.
