If it makes you feel better, the longer time passes the more that number is irrelevant as copies are easily destroyed... For instance if you burn the other 67,000 you will have 1/250

Agreed,limited & collectors used to mean exactly that,now it only means
more sales at the end of the business day. Its a little sad really in some
ways in other ways it has it benefits. One benefit is that sometimes you
get companies trying to outdo each other,which results in better CE/LE
becoming available. One downside is because so many are produced alot
of them we pay top dollar for thinking there wont be many around you
soon find them for half the price of less & see so many of them you end
up going crosseyed looking at them all.

Example A: Ninja Gaiden 3 CE-AU$149 on release date @ EB Games
Ninja Gaiden 3 CE-AU$68 current price @ EB Games
Sold out quite quickly at this price,but you still may find one or two around

Example B: Gears of War 3 Epic-AU$240 on release date @ EB games(from memory)
Gears of War 3 Epic-AU$77 current price @ EB Games
Will state though,trying to find one in EB Games is next to impossible. As
far as i am aware i bought the only copy available in Queensland @ AU$77
This,isnt a little price drop,this is a significant price drop here

Finally got the return to castle wolfenstein operation resurrection collectors edition.. It's probably the lamest I have seen, it's a tshirt and a game in a large box




Annoyingly it's not in the database

just got prototype steel of seller from here very pleased with it, for some reason though my xbox game manual would fit in ps3 steel, oh well game disc looks nice.

driver parrelell lines ce turned up all contents in box, few minor scrathes on back of steel, 8/10 not bad for £2

non game related, been saving points in a newpaper club and had enough to gate a boxset of last years royal wedding, quite impressive, contains £5 coin stamps, double cd, order of service, and coa, what was not mentioned in product description was its numbered 180/500 and hand signed coa by president of decca records, was a nice surprise
