Well, the seller is aware of how its going to end right. You cannot blame the seller for people being stupid, but you have to admit it was done on purpose. This guy is clearly not a fan. If he was, he'd keep the CE to himself. Its not even reaching his home and already selling it. Considering this alone, he knows he's going to get like a x2 on what he had to pay for it.

I mean, selling it years later because you've kept it for your own collection and you grab a x2, x3, that, i could understand. But selling something you've yet to receive is something i'll never accept and bear, even tho it's never going to stop.

I wish they would add an option like : one per address. They could get their hands on a few copies indeed, but shit like 70 CE being on auction from the same guy would never happen.

I know being upset wont change a thing, but you have to admit thats shitty to do such thing. Now, real fans either have to buy the regular edition or have to pay twice the price for the same item.

US stores should ship worldwide. Dunno why there's such a limitation and cannot ship without US territory, that's crazy. We're in 2014, tons of shipping methods and yet, we just can't get our hands on NA edition but, of course, most of the time, EU is sending to the US... Ain't that fair.

i'm sorry but sometimes it really doesn't work that way... try to find a ni no kuni or a borderlands 2 CE that is not selling over 200 USD.

if this CE ends up being truly "limited" (not like others which get mass produced SR4 GOTY comes to mind) chances are you wont be able to find it for a cheaper price down the road.

Yeah but Ni No Kuni was selling for $400.00+ at release... this will be under $150.00 soon enough (there's 18,000 not exactly rare)

Dan, do you know the Borderlands big chest run?

Have it, but not sure If it was an EU release only or worldwide CE...

Had no idea that it had increased so much...

I've still haven't seen one selling for under 200. The minute I do, believe me I would buy it in a heart beat. The cheapest I've seen it so far has been 300 USD. I've been watching one for over 6 months and the vendor keeps re-listing it for 500... I know it wont sell but he keeps trying..

yep, my main interest is the ps3 version mainly for the stupid G2 steelbook.
They're going for really dumb prices on ebay and amazon.

120-130, i could understand, greedy people will always want to get some money, its all about business (just gotta see the FFXIII CE...), but double price one week later, thats crazy. Just hope they won't sell so price will eventually go down.

If people keep buying at x2, those guys will never stop.
Well I'm not sure how often you browse ebay after sold-out CE's are released but this is pretty standard.
It happens quite often. For example the Borderlands 2 CE here in the US sold out so I saw one go for about $500 release day.

Not that I would do something like that, but hey that's capitalism. Plus, there are people for it, so you should be more mad at them then the sellers.

And as Zaku pointed out, you can't blame the BIN prices, because the ones that start at like $ .99 cents still go up to about 160-200.

You have to be stupid to sell it on ebay for $130.
I understand if it's a friend and you're gonna pass it on for cost of cost plus a little for your time, but not some random stranger on ebay.

I got both, ps3 and Xbox...but the prob here in EU is that both came G2...

So I think a Ps3 NA one will be more valuable than an EU CE...

Felt busted when I saw the same size of the steels...
