If the gun was included,it had fancy box i would expect $150+ for a good one,if alls new/sealed,maybe $200+
The bastard probably has the gun sitting on his shelf at home.. really annoys me when people only trade in half a collectors edition

If I hadn't just bought mass effect 2 collectors and 100$ worth of the mass effect figures I'd look into it, though for $20 I didn't pass up the first half of the bayonetta collectors

I don't usually see CEs go for double when international shipping is offered, but if you say so. Either way, like I said, last couple I've seen have gone for around $400, not "$750-$1000", so it's a big stretch to put that price on them. I think HippeDude just grabbed one for $400 within the last couple months even.

Generally I don't see them for $2500, but the last slightly shady seller that was coming up in the rare finds thread had an auction or two end at that IIRC. People were suspicious about him posting it up multiple times, but it was also figured that his auction winners weren't paying, thus he was just relisting the same item. Regardless, even if $2500 is a great price, I really don't think or see them actually SELLING for $5000-$7000.

I call something's actual "value" at what it's actually selling for; that makes a lot more sense in my opinion.

Dont know what you mean by that exactly? If you see the QA section in the listing you could see an interested buyer 'politely' asking for shipping to Hungary but seller said he wouldnt do that. So it was evident he wouldnt do that.

at least double what it sold for considering it came with a new/sealed

Thats exactly why I mentioned earlier that if that had been the case, it would have sold for atleast $700

the last half hour so,i put in here for all to see & bid if they choose.

Did you read all my post,lol. He did agree to ship to me in Australia,
it was just unfortunate he changed his mind at the last minute.
Even if a seller already has said no in their Q & A,i still ask for the
simple reason that they may say no to one person but they may
say yes to me. They may have said no the other person for some
reason that may not apply to me
I can guarantee that on average of 8 out of 10 times i ask if they
will ship interntionally they will do so,even if they state they wont
or have already said no to someone else. The amount of most
excellent stuff i have got simply by asking politely is incredible,being
polite,sincere etc always will work wonders. Sometimes it may take
a few messges but,it can be worth the effort

Firstly mate can you explain what this sentence means? I cannot make much sense out of it

If thats posed in interrogative, Then you shouldnt have quoted my part of post there since I never contested that writing to the seller doesnt help or anything likewise?

True, and I did read that he initially agreed to send it to you (wonder what madde him change his mind then??). But usually when sellers clearly state that they will not ship internationally it puts off majority buyers. Not all are bothered to ask, you yourself got ultimately rejected here. I myself ask sellers if they can ship it internationally and some do, some dont. But its those times when a buyer sees the item just before the sale end, there may not be enough time for this Q/A session. Its then such listings suffer. I fully agree that asking seller nevertheless is the best option.
