$5555 for book is justified compared to how this kid use money.

I want to sell my unsigned one now... this is insane for sure. If mine wasn't a gift, I would have listed it already and still might, it is not at all what i expected and is not worth the original price and seeing what it is potentially worth now i might go for it. I have seen another member get $400 for the unsigned one and I thought that was amazingly high.

I guess congrats to the seller, and pity for the people who wanted one back when our orders were canceled (because you will never get on at these prices).

The bar has been set and there is no going back.

I wash my hands of this thread...

There is going back - when the next few follow. It won't sell that high again. I doubt even close. Its just a fluke where 2 people get caught in a bidding war on an item that is hitting ebay for the first time. Happens all the time, albeit not to that extent.

Still though, nice to see video game collectibles selling for so much. Seeing this thread seconds after it was posted, can't say I don't regret not buying one. That price is crazy!

No, i mean overall... you mistook me.

I assume too much... I assume people understand what i am saying but I should know better when text can't portray tone.

I mean the prices will rise more then what they were... yes never that high, but still higher then they were prior. I hope this makes sense.

Mike1888 · #**265** 04-08-2013, 04:21 AM

Higher than what we assumed it would be, yeah absolutely.

Um do we give out prizes for triple negatives?

I'm pretty sure you mean to say you regret not buying one now, right?

lol I guess I'm mad I didn't either but with the way the bioshock store is run

It is a lottery after all is said and done

Right... i do have a question, at the prices that even the un-signed ones are going of would you sell yours if you had gotten one?

Here i am continuing on this thread

I wash my hands as well, the whole bioshock thing has gotten crazy, ive always loved it and it's collectibles but I fear I will never be able to obtain anything, shit even the sky hook, and Columbia statues are sold out now ,this over priced book has caused people to sbag up anything bioshock related, it's for rich only now. Unsigned books selling for 400, one is for sale for 700 seller stating only 40 exist, yeah right. Making me sick. Good luck on your collecting guys I'm moving on to other cool things, for a tiny fraction of one of these books I was able to pick up a whole bunch of really cool signed prints at tampa comic con. This all has helped me move on as I'm disgusted where the bioshock thing is going. Look at the cool tomb raider art for 40 bucks a piece. I'll see you guys on the other threads. Peace

Yeah I would totally just sell it

I honestly can't imagine getting my hands on an unsigned one and being impressed with it in any form given everything I've heard about it

I mean it really doesn't seem like its worth original retail so meh

Yeah I noticed that while I was typing it.

I feel like that's a common triple negative.

Yes of course.

On the topic of selling it, if you're going to sell it, do it now. The game just came out to extremely strong reception. So hype is as high as it will ever be! Also, that 5.5k will surely prompt a bunch of people to sell theirs and it will slowly decrease with each auction. Gotta be quick.
