CIB Lunar The Silver Star

[xelement5x]

I saw this the other day when I was going through stuff, it looks like prices for the 7th variant have just skyrocketed!

One appears to have ended at about $100 a month ago, and then a second one looks like it just ended at over $200! Is the last variant really that in demand for most people?

[SpaceFlea]

Looks like it's time to sell three of my four copies of it then...

I knew I should've kept swipin' 'em up.

Originally, when people started to take notice of them (say... 10 years ago), they were selling for around $200. They plummeted quickly, and not too long ago were selling for no more than any other art. Hell, the last one I bought was a $50 BIN about a year ago. I almost sold one of mine a few months back for $70, but I'm glad I held on to it now that they've blown-up again. Oh, what a roller coaster ride this is...

Thank god I don't care about variants. I don't remember what I paid for my Lunar:SSS but EB was kind of A funny story.

Local game was charging $75 for the game, but I was mad at them for some shitty customer service regarding a Turbografx they had for sale but not really so I stole the empty case and manual that were on display and hit up eBay for a $25 disc only copy. Not my proudest moment, but they've long since gone out of business.

We all have our moments.

Eh, variants are the fun part about the Working Designs games. It took me a long time but I have managed to collect every disc variant for every one of their games released. I'm glad I got the Turbo games early though, they (along with Turbo stuff in general) seem just keep rising in price

I just paid €59 + shipping for a copy off a web store based in the netherlands. US NTSC version. Supposedly in very good condition but not mint. he graded it 4 out of 5. Ill see what shape it is once it gets here. I coincidently also picked up EB for €79. Both were boxed naturally, and the Silver Star variand was apparently the most rare? I dunno if they differ in price generally, but the store had several different variants priced the same so i looked up what is supposed to be the most rare and picked that. might play part if i ever decide to sell.

Edit: Ok the games arrived today and OF COURSE he had squeezed them into as small a box as he could find, so there were no buffer zones on the top and bottom edges = broken hinges... Hopefully he will stand by his sale and fix this.. We shall see..

Edit 2: New front case covers arrived, he did good.

So basically, €59 for my copy in good to very good condition.
