CAGiversary!
I saw a thread talking about the new upcoming CE games, and obviously the prices are MRSP.

So, I created this thread to easily identify old and cheap CE games.

[quote name='giantqtipz']I don't think the nano edition is in production anymore and nor is it avilable for order. So shouldn't it go higher in value? Like the first dead space LE which is 1000+[/QUOTE]

Many of the original Dead Space LE's ended up being around 250 or lower on ebay. The last completed item went for 405. Certainly higher than its original price though it really fluctuates.

I would believe Crysis would increase though I imagine it would cap out at a decent level as well (maybe 500) simply because it doesn't have anything that significantly contributes to the game experience and doesn't have a devoted cult following willing to drive price.
 
I was also a little miffed that I bought Fallout NV CE when it first released, because it was rare the first week of release. In fact GS said that it didn't even have enough for pre orders when I went in there looking for it, so I picked up the standard, but found a CE the next week. But I traded in my game about a week ago to best buy, so I picked up a couple at 30, so I could open all the extras and play with them, but still have one for my shelf. I can always get the game out if I finish my huge stack of games.
 
[quote name='etcrane']It was rare initially, I'm pretty sure they did a second run a few weeks after release and that's what caused it to show up everywhere and not sell after so many people slammed the game (unfairly IMO, I think it's a great game).[/QUOTE]

It is a great game but it has a lot of glitches.
 
[quote name='fortunado']I saw one at target the other day but it was $40, not $20. I'll have to go check again - think it was for PS3 also.[/QUOTE]

Target Clearance prices are YMMV. So don't be too shocked if the price at your Target is not $20 yet.
 
[quote name='DeadAsWarhol']has anyone seen the MGS4 CE or The Force Unleashed Sith Edition anywhere for cheap?[/QUOTE]

i think MGS4 CE is one of those thats actually rare. I havent really seen it cheap anywhere.

By the way anyone notice the dead rising 2 CE price dip below about 45 bucks? Thats what i keep seeing it at Amazon for, and at frys too. I keep waiting for it to go to about 25-30 bucks
 
[quote name='slowdive21']Where can I get one of those for $10? I want. I want.[/QUOTE]

some gs should have them still. I got mine a few months ago and they had piles left. I cant imagine theres a market for it anymore. nice metal case and everything. i cant remember what i paid but it was less than 20.
 
[quote name='ragingst0rm6']Target Clearance prices are YMMV. So don't be too shocked if the price at your Target is not $20 yet.[/QUOTE]

my target is still $55 - argh.
 
Bought Castlevania: Lords of Shadow LE (PS3) at GameStop for $50 during their Super Saver sale. Yes, I realize other places had it cheaper but this is select store is the only place I've seen the edition outside online. No one ever bought it, so I jumped on it when the price lowered... even if it wasn't worth the price.
 
[quote name='DeadAsWarhol']has anyone seen the MGS4 CE or The Force Unleashed Sith Edition anywhere for cheap?[/QUOTE]

I was able to snag a copy of Ultimate Sith Edition (360) from my local Kmart last week. It was priced at 39.99 and rang up as 19.98. I was also able to pick up a copy of Dragon Quest V for 30 bucks. I fucking love Kmart.

If they have any extra copies, i'd be willing to send you the $20+(generous) shipping costs :)

PAL[/QUOTE]

ya but im pretty sure that was one of the games where the ps3 version performs noticably worse than the 360 version, with screen tearing, and worse textures and lighting. I dont think the UK 360 version is region free like the ps3 version is

besides i wouldn't order such a large easily crushed LE from Zavvi. They only ship in envelopes. Odds are that would arived smooshed as hell. It is in a big thin walled cardboard sleeve right?

DQ V for 30 bucks? ... i hate you =P Actually i hear they are re-issuing it soon probably so that should be awesome if they do. I gave up on finding a sith edition cheap

*sigh* I wish we had a k-mart near here. It sounds like they have great deals. I dont think theres one anywhere near here.. just did a store locator and the closest one is like 40 miles away =P f that
 
Picked up the New Vegas CE for $30. Gonna trade in my regular copy to Amazon for $25 so $5 for the CE stuff isn't a bad deal at all.

I'm with you brother, Just put mine in the mail today. Now it's sitting next to my FO3 CE lunchbox. I'm happy I waited for the inevitable price drop.

DR2 CE was $35 at NewEgg a couple of weeks back.

I highly doubt you'll see the Nano edition dip anywhere below $250, but good luck to those of you that are going for it. Maybe used will hit below $250. I doubt new will though. That CE completely snuck up on me. I didn't even here about it until someone told me one sold for $450.

I hope that they do a reprint. I have been trying to snag a copy of DQ V for a while. Naturally the one version of the game I passed over initally thinking it would drop does a 180 on me. Ah well you win some you lose some.
 
[quote name='ssjmichael']Alien vs Predator Hunter edition dropped down to $27.24 for the PS3 version, and $1 more for the 360. It was a little bit cheaper at newegg a while back but this is still a pretty decent deal if you want it:

Got mine in today for the 360 and the facehuggers tail is broke in 5 places. I know someone posted a site to contact them if you have a broken one, so I hope its still active.

Edit: www.sega.com/facehugger no longer works, had to submit a support ticket through the sega site. Bleh.

mine seems to be in tact.. but its tail was severly curled the whole thing is doubled back on itself. Is that how it came for those of you (who didn't get it broken) I have it stretched out on the wall in a hope that it will straighten out. I certainly wont be putting it back in the case it came in. Its way too small for the facehugger. I can see how some would get broken

I would assume Crysis 2 since that had a nano edition that was sold out for quite a while before release

My first order was broken into two, tail and body. I called them about the issue and they sent me another one. My new one was curled up like yours, I think that was the way they package it.

Yeah, it is Crysis 2. It was a $150 EA Store Exclusive.
 
My tail was pretty curved under it. It's mostly fixed itself just from sitting there on the shelf. The damn thing is kinda lame any way lol.

I scared the shit outa my 5 year old niece with it. I slapped it on my face (holds pretty well with the folding legs) and came in the room screaming. She freaked the hell out, lol

worth the purchase price for that alone =)

D: That's so cruel!
 
[quote name='Fatbot3']Many of the original Dead Space LE's ended up being around 250 or lower on ebay. The last completed item went for 405. Certainly higher than its original price though it really fluctuates.

I would believe Crysis would increase though I imagine it would cap out at a decent level as well (maybe 500) simply because it doesn't have anything that significantly contributes to the game experience and doesn't have a devoted cult following willing to drive price.[/QUOTE]

I haven't ever seen a Dead Space LE go for $250 or less and I track it very closely. The one for around $500 last week was a fluke and a lot of collectors couldn't believe it. On average, the game is still going for $600-$800 with some copies going for more.

Thats insane, wish I'd picked it up back when it came out.

Saw that when it first went up with the Best Offer/BIN
Was it legit?
If really looked resealed from the pic, which was not
very revealing, from what I remember.
Especially for an item of that collector magnitude.
 
[quote name='slowdive21']Where can I get one of those for $10? I want. I want.[/QUOTE]

I don't know if you're thinking of a different game maybe, but you can score one of these practically anywhere. There are a bunch of used FF XII collector's editions all over ebay at any given time. If you're looking for brand new idk, but it come with a nice metal case that I'm sure can be found in very good if not mint shape. The definition of cheap and old CE.

BTW the Fallout: NV CE is pretty cool. I haven't opened the playing cards yet but the graphic novel is good quality.

I would like a new/sealed one. ;)
 
Not really a collector's edition, but a first party Nintendo GameCube game bundle with microphone for $9.99 shipped and fulfilled through Amazon. Amazon has it listed at $44.96.



The game will likely have Not for Resale on it, may be a market for variant collectors out there.

From what I've read and seen, the game is fun and challenging.

I saw these at WM for the same price, but they sold them all before I could get back to the store. Thanks for posting!

I cant really be the only one that saw this and immediately thought it was fake can I? I never heard of the game and just saw that face on the cover and name of the game and thought of something completely different...

[quote name='slowdive21']I am still mad at myself for not picking up AC2 for 29.99 when they dropped at GS.[/QUOTE]


Wait, is that AC2 Assassin's Creed II?? I'm almost positive I saw one CE sitting way up on a top shelf at one of my GS's...

edit: Huh I see Brotherhood's is only $60 too, it was DEFINITELY one or the other...

AC2 is in a blue tin that is about the same size as a bluray but about 5 inches deep. The brotherhood CEs are in big black cube looking boxes.

Looking back through this thread, wasn't AC 2's Master Edition in a box too though? I definitely saw a box and I'm pretty sure it was white, not black. Either way I'll be stopping back by there tomorrow (not calling) to be sure.

This thread is starting to get me addicted to CE's...never really cared much before. I only have Reach Legendary (not too much of a biggie I know, got it at Target, selling the code, keeping the rest) and NV, may be adding AC to my small collection though.

Guess the question is now, do I buy another NV if I can find it in order to keep sealed...

Yeah. The AC2 CE was in a very light blue, almost white, tin that is a little bit smaller than the God of War III Ultimate Edition box. (It's quite a bit larger than a BluRay case.)

So, if they do have that there I'm assuming this is one I should probably keep sealed?

And is it 19.99 or 29.99? Saw both in the thread, not sure if it was talking about the same edition or the other limited/collectors.

It's definitely worth that. It comes with a pretty nice looking Ezio statue.

Yeah I see the 360 versions going for around and about $200. Not sure if this is one I'd keep for myself/display or keep sealed and sell off at some point. Definitely making a trip back there tomorrow!

What I was asking though is what is the price at Gamestop?
