I wouldn't go for it myself - pretty expensive for a lot of stuff I'm not interested in collecting. OD Title: Re: Sweet eBay auction Post by: Tynstar on October 14, 2005, 09:11:04 AM Holy Crap I would buy that if I had the cash. Maybe if I win the Powerball tomorrow :laugh:

Unless you buy in large lots then sell of one at a time. But yeah in general I would agree with you. I am glad I don't colelct for investment reasons.

I bought all of my holy grails for cheap prices around 9 years ago, so if I were to sell my collection now I'm sure I would be getting more than what I paid for everything. The only part where I know I won't get as much as I paid for it are the accessories, because many of them don't sell for a lot of money, yet they cost a lot to acquire thanks to the shipping costs (especially when overseas) and the fact that joysticks are normally sold on an individual basis, rather than in lots.
