What is going on with that game, 2 weeks ago one goes for £77, last week £400+ which I don't believe was real and now this with private bidding??

I'll say this, I've believed for a long time, there's a group of people strategically bidding on each other auctions with silly totals to inflate the prices on certain games and never actually selling them.

If people see a game go for £400-£500 quid a few times then all of a sudden somebody (one of the group) puts it up for BIN £250 the'll get a bite and some poor bugger will believe he got a bargain.

The fact you have one at £120 that's getting ignored whilst the other is £100 dearer so far makes me believe it all the more, those bids arn't real.

Well after some sole searching I've decided to sell off the games that I'm never going to play or simply don't like out of my DC collection. There is no particular rush to do so though. So goodbye 100%! It was fun.

I also agree with this too, seems far too shifty. This is nowhere near rare enough to command this kind of money. Id pay £80 maximum used, and probably £120 sealed.

The £400 Evolution was a scam, I purchased to stuff off the chap at the same time, nice guy, he confirmed though it was purchased due to scam, didnt as for details. I notice he just put it back on, and its up to £60 already.

No Dreamcast game should be "worth" £100, but guess if more people collect then the price will only go up.

I think it will spend some time filling the cheep gaps in my collection, see of some of the top titles come down.

Does any one have a list of all the DC games that got release in Europe & Japan but didnt get released in North America.
eg. Shenmue 2 came out in JPN / EU but not the USA.

Shenmue 1 maybe, Shenmue II will set you back usually between £30-£45 depending on condition, even at auction. Anything lower and you'll be lucky if its complete in decent condition!
