and then you see the second hand market explode.They have to know they are doing it since the salper scraping discords are public knowledge now.Do you think they are in on it like the rudy guy rigging magic the gathering prices?
who cares just emulate or softmod

yeah i hate it when people talk about super ultra niche videogame nobody knows about? oh what is it? super mario. you've probably never heard about it
>>743252921>Love Haunting Ground but nobody else played it as a kid>Check online and its like £15 second hand>Tell friend about it who i meet in college a few years later>"dude its so expensive">What? i check ebay and its £150 now>On a whim check the name on youtube by recent videos>This fuck made a video and instantly all the copies were bought up and reposted at ten times the price>Is now called a "expensive cult classic" rather than a "budget hidden gem".All i feel in my heart is hate.
>>743253247Why? It's his job to make videos. You want him to just quit his job because some game you weren't going to buy anyway becomes expensive?
none of this matters. emulate it instead.>b-b-b-but i need more clutter to gather dust on my shelfnone of it matters. when you die it's all going in the landfill
>>743253247I bought as a teen cause I just assumed it would be expensive one day like every horror game I still have a sealed copy just laying around that I'll never actually sell.
>>743252921this is why I've given up on collecting and have just started to get flashcarts and mod my old consoles to read from SD/HDDs. easier and cheaper to do than collecting every game I want physically.

>>743252921Everything in the second market already explodedJDG in French used to make those and it was barely a 30-50% on each of those game, and you could still gameNow everything went from like 50e to 200-250e, including common shit like Pokemon or Silent Hill. And you won't even find a 10% price reduction because botters and reseller will beg them to not sale at 180 instead of 200 (thats a true story, i deal with those 24/7 on vinted). Just buy only few game you really love and use a CFW or flashcard for the rest, unless its a ps3 360 + era
>>743256741Its because during the late 2000's a mario cart sold for millions at an auction, bafflingly, and all the dumbasses buying old comics to seal in plastic as "speculator investments" started doing it with games and for some reason NES, SNES and PS2 are the ones they go fuckin' hog wild about.
>>743252921if it was already your favorite niche series, don't you have the games already? the only people that care about the prices should be the ones getting in for the first time
>>743256741I sell shit at a lower price on Ebay just to get back at these jewish cunts who are making the hobby shittier for everyone. I listed chibi robo $25 under value and these resellniggers were still begging me to go lower. They love dm'ing me begging sell them a game for basically nothing. I always tell these cunts to fuck off and block them. Would be great if there was a list of these niggers ebay accounts so I can block them all and sell to regular people exclusively.
