Default Re: Crouching Altair

I watch a danish game review show thing :p
Called pixel.tv, and they had 1 of these.. And I asked them personal in mail where they got it from, and was told it was a gift from ubisoft.. So ubisoft have not only give it to employee, but also some review sites and such things :p

Whereas the number could potentially be less than a thousand as the first4figure comment on the production number was not 100% certain, it has got to be over a hundred and IMO it has to be at least 500 bare minimum.

There have been maybe 15 seperate crouching altairs that have been listed / sold in the past 3 months or so. If you compare it to the uncharted 2 art folio which was limited to 200, there has been 2 listed in the past 6 - 8 months

Granted there's a lot of other variables to consider including the fact that crouching Altair may have never been available for sale to the public as well as the fact that a high price auction of an item tends to shake loose several more of that item but even still there have been far too many listings in a short amount of time for me to ever believe it is anything even remotely close to 100

I have seen close to 40 crouching altairs listed on eBay in under 12 months

lol thanks lowly

Always trust you to have the best info on AC stuff on ebay

Do you think any of the 40 or so were relistings? Or were they mostly separate listings?

Definitely more than a 100 then.....

I know one guy had between 5 and at most 15 (can't be more specific that was over a year ago) that he sourced from Spain but was based in London
He had no info on them
No duplicate spellings
No shill bids
As with each listing they started out at 28 GBP up to 120 GBP
Each consecutive listing went for a higher price
And that's what started this sick game

I have emailed almost every seller of a crouching Altair up until Christmas when I gave up the chase
Each one tells of similar stories
And I always have quite a deep discussion
So I don't believe anyone of them to be relistings
Except one over on the US site but that doesn't show up in my UK search anymore
And since eBay changed there international listing policy that a seller needed 10 selling feedback to make a listing visible to international bidders
My search has been narrowed and I ignore and don't count buy it nows listed especially not the seller in the US who thinks its worth 5000USD


I can find out a better idea of the number of altairs that exist from my ubi contact
Be there where over 500 employees that worked on AC1 so I'll ask the question and see what I get back
