$25 is too high? Dude. I used to have it up for like $50-ish. My prices now are the lowest I can go.

* I ship with USPS Priority Mail with standard shipping so you'll get it in 2-3 business days. I also include tracking number and delivery confirmation at no additional charge.

I would say my prices are very fair.
 
Do yourself a favor, go to ebay and type in star ocean till the end of time and look at the completed listings. I understand you are going by amazon prices but there are much cheaper prices available with the same condition as yours or just a slightly bit more used. And yes some of those include the slip cover.

I've been given that suggestion before. Keep in mind this... I was an eBay seller for a while and I had my prices to match eBay. They weren't selling. I had pictures, offered the shipping, etc. Nothing.

I switched over to Amazon and figured I might as well as stay? Why? Mainly the receiving payment aspect.

You get the usual fees for posting, but eBay has fees for any more than 1 photo, fees for subtitles...FEES FOR FREAKIN EVERYTHING!. And then, they go as far as to use PayPal only, and there are fees to hold my money I earn after fees on eBay.

PayPal takes it further with these stupid rules where if I don't receive feedback, sometimes my money is put on hold for up to 30 days. Not everyone leaves feedback. They say this is buyer protection but I say it's BS protection since they have the information about your bank account number, the debit card/credit card number... They probably have some kind of a agreement with eBay where the longer they have the money the more interest they earn from eBay or something.

Amazon? Very simple.
- fees for only when you sell
- money goes directly to Amazon Seller Payment account (no fees here)
- can transfer funds from Payment Account to debit account (no fees)
....no BS fine print

Just to tickle your fancy...I did search and I got 2 results

http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-Ocean-Til-...9113?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item2c58f170e9
- bid at $6 now
- includes strategy guide
- missing cardboard case
- games are advertised as "like new", but probably not
- still over 4 days left.

http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-Ocean-til-...6295?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item3cb2a9bd77
- buy now at $19.99
- very good condition
- has a gamestop used sticker possibly on the actual cover art (the paper) they do that
- no cardboard case
- missing instruction booklet it seems


So out of these 2, the first one is most similar to what I have. Shipping on the eBay one charges more, and the actual condition of the game is sketchy, and it's missing the cardboard case.

http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-Ocean-Till...9077?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item3a609e6f45

http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-Ocean-Till...7011?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item4cf3419913

- no cardboard box

http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-Ocean-Till...3458?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item43a2c5d702
- no cardboard box
- case seems like it has damage? the seller states, "When shipped, the game disc will be secured to the disc holder with a small, removable pull tab. This will ensure the game does not come loose and bounce around in the case and get damaged during shipping."

http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-Ocean-Till...5227?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item563df504fb
- very good (mine is like new)
- he states only priority mail orders will have a box. i assume if you pay the standard, you'll get it in like a bubble wrap thing (probably damage the game in transit)

http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-Ocean-Till...4845?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item43a351efcd

http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-Ocean-Till...1828?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item4cf34c0c24

http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-Ocean-Till...9397?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item1c121fd165

http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-Ocean-Till...5058?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item3a5b067d12
- very good
- missing cardboard box
- price is a bit over $10 more than what i offer

http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-Ocean-Till...5025?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item2a0c1145e1
- brand new non greatest hits with new strategy guide
- starting bid priced higher than what i'm selling for
- will probably end up costing you way more than that at the end of the auction
- $49.99 to buy

Dude. I see a huge trend on eBay. >_>

I have NEVER had fees held up because of feedback. Ebay owns Paypal just so you know...

I know that eBay owns PayPal.

You never had fees put on hold because of not receiving feedback? Either you're lucky, and bound to get it soon, or you have a ridiculously high amount of positive feedback and like a Power Seller status.

If you don't know what I'm talking about (the fees being put on hold), look it up online. Many people have had this happen to them.

I got fed up with the crap. Fees for putting up, fees for selling, fees to transfer my funds from PayPal to my checking account. Stupid.

I don't recommend eBay/PayPal unless you are absolutely prepared to be bombarded with ridiculous fees all over the place.

I also don't like how you get money for each sale after fees but the fees aren't taken til the end of the month in the form of an invoice.

With Amazon, you sell an item, fees get taken out, and the amount you get after fees are put into your Amazon payment account. From there you can disburse the funds once every 24 hours directly to your checking account. There's no BS middle man (aka PayPal) and they don't have a stupid hold your money if your account is flagged or due for "review".
