[quote name='danny-o']I could buy it at EB for 39.99. Thanks but I dont think its SUPER ULTRA RARE!!!![/QUOTE]

NOT the XBOX version, dude.

PS2 and Gamecube versions are plentiful....NOT the XBOX one.

Check before you speak about such matters instead of shooting your mouth off.

In this case, your "retard" avatar is very appropriate!
 
I got it at buy.com for $40 but it was around $48 after shipping and tax. Not that rare but not easy to find.
 
[quote name='lionheart4life']Sounds about as rare as the Halo 2 Collector's Edition, or Madden 2005 Collector's Edition, which is to say not exactly "ultra rare."[/QUOTE]

FAR more rare than Halo 2 smart arse. Find ANY retail store selling SC:CT CE....oh, wait a minute....you WON"T!

You guys apparently don't know much about video games, yet continue to spout off on the rare nature of this game as if you do.

Yes, those few online places have them, but check the prices and are any of them reputable?

CompUSA I'll grant you seems to be the only one, but shipping and tax brings it to OVER $60!

If you have no interest in buying or nothing to say other than talking about things you don't no, why not just look and disappear. No need to be a thread crapper!
 
They're pretty rare. I've seen the PS2 and GC versions everywhere but I haven't seen the XBOX versions. Much much rarer than Madden 05 or Halo 2.

But it's also true that its value isn't too high...

You know what they say...what's good for the goose...

Checking Froogle, as someone posted above, would have told you that the game can be obtained through a number of retailers new and sealed for around $55. Perhaps you should have checked that before mouthing off to someone who was just trying to say "Not so rare, buddy".

Again, would YOU order from any of those places other than CompUSA?

I sure wouldn't.

And just because some obscure Internet sites list that they have it doesn't mean it's not ultra rare.

Don't you think it interesting no MAJOR retail sites have it? Does this suggest anything to you???

Thank you.

True, value isn't real high YET but while hard to project its value, it's only likely to grow with time.

It's funny that you mention not trusting a suspicious website, but we're supposed to trust a guy on a message board?

Don't bother replying since I won't be looking at this thread anymore.

Check my rating before you smart off.

I have completed MORE THAN 20+ trades on these boards in the last year alone (12 w/official feedback).

Oh, but you don't have TIME to read my response or bother to look up my user rating, do you?

But you have time to post like a big prick. Gee, that's funny how you can find time for that?

Again, why is everyone posting tonight being such a tool?

Don't wanna buy? Just look away!

Here are some 'minor' retailers:

You guys are wrong.. The XBox version is hard to find, at least B&M. The only place online that has them (that I know of) is walmart.com.

Regardless, $46.50 for the CE is a very good price.

I tihnk the point that everyone's trying to make is that since you've been around the boards, you should know better than to list something as "Ultra Rare* when its merely hard to find. Your price is more than fair - and all this would go away if you just took it out of your title - then people would be more inclined to buy instead of picking on you. :D
 
I saw the thread title and the OP and wondered to myself whether I had stumbled back onto eBay. There's no need to sell your stuff in this manner on these boards, we all generally know the value / rarity of items -- the whole point of this site IS to know a good deal when you find one.

Your price isn't bad, OP, but you need to lay off the caffeine and sugar.

OK, you make a valid point.

But hard to find can be considered rare, and there WERE limited copies of it pressed for XBOX, so I'd define it as rare.

Regardless, though, since the term "rare" has caused such consternation I have removed it.

Thank you for noting the fair price I'm offering it up for and for your valid points.

I appreciate that!

I just couldn't resist.

You say you have "MORE THAN 20+ trades on these boards", but I don't see this mysterious feedback anywhere. You have 1 feedback with the new system and 11 in the old system. That does not ad up to "20+" my friend. You have 12 not 20, it only counts if feedback was left. I could say that I've done 50+ trades and 22 with offical feedback. It can't be verified!

The only reason that I posted in the first place is that you are selling a game that is not really "rare" and you act like a jerk to people who kindly point it out.

Put your shit up for sale and be done with it. Whoever wants to take a chance with you will do so, but YOU look like a prick when you start barking at anyone who says that this shitty game isn't rare.

Why don't you let your emotions cool down and actually READ my post....it CLEARLY says in my original post "12 WITH OFFICIAL FEEDBACK".....how could you NOT see that?

Oh, that's right....you just want to come in here and make trouble.

Why don't you stop making an arse of yourself (not reading my post and calling me a liar, then claiming your not going to read my reply and then you do anyway) and just go trolling somewhere else??

I'm not barking at people disputing the rare thing (which I think both "hard to find" and "a limited pressing" add up to rare.

Just tools like you who look for threads to troll on.
 
cavalier-try not to let this get you upset as there are a lot of assholes on this site... and not all of them are noobs either... seems like a fair price to me
 
To the OP and everyone else in the thread, let's stop with the threadcrapping.

If you don't want to buy the item in the thread, don't post in here.

Thanks, man.

Trying not to, but it's really hard and I'm only trying to defend myself.

I appreciate the support.

hell if I had some cash I'd pick it up from you.... not a bad price and a free bump to boot!!!

It seems you missed the point of my post. I said you shouldn't even MENTION the 20+ feedback since you only have 12 officially. Remeber when I said I could have done 50+ trades but only 22 are official? It just means "Don't mention the number 20 (even if it's true) when the number is 12 (officially)"

Get it? No one is calling you a liar. I'm only saying, "Dont say 20, when it's really 12". It's not that hard to comprehend.
 
I don't mean to beat a dead horse, but I saw 6 or 7 new copies of the Splinter Cell: Choas Theory collector's edition (for Xbox) at GameStop for $39.99.

I'm not thread-crapping, but I don't think this will sell unless you change the price at which you're selling this. I'm interested... but not for that much.

Hm.

And since Brak isn't mature enough to refrain from admiting he was wrong and will probably post again:

That my friend, is threadcrapping ;) If you saw it there for "OMFG soo cheap" why didnt you buy it? :applause:
 
The game is rare to the extent that B&M retailers will not be getting this restocked when they sell out, unlike the PS2 and GC versions.

I did a district item lookup the other day, not 1 store (13) had a copy of the game, new or preowned.

With the internet, NOTHING is rare. With time, I could find a sealed copy of Rez. But the point the OP is making is that it's very hard to find this in stores.

No need to say, "OMG this isn't rare! My EB has 5 copies of it!" because you're likely one in a million.

So very true.

First of all, I highly doubt those were the LIMITED COLLECTOR'S EDITION you claim to have seen for $39.99 at Gamestop, especially when they retailed for $59.99.

And I'll ask the same question....at that price, why didn't you buy one (or several for that matter)???

Most likely because you never did see it for that price.

This truly was a "Limited" edition on the XBOX, as compared with other so-called limited editions like Halo 2 or Doom 3 you can still score just about anywhere these days.
