    That $440 was a buy-it-now from an uneducated seller, it was pretty torn up too. Opened Benny's go for $800-$1000, NOT $600. Sealed puts you at north of $1000, maybe up to $1200 or so.


    ***EDIT Actually, I take that back about the eBay seller that sold one for $440....I looked it up and take a look up his feedback, the transaction was cancelled and never happened.

    Raffles have been the new craze, too. I've seen three raffled off either by themselves or as part of a larger prize pool. They have been going for $100 buy-ins and 12-15 players.

    I love a good Benny discussion! Look guys, the price disparity you are suggesting really only translates into a hundred square feet of new home.

    You're right! :grin:

    Simple fact:
    $600.....not going to happen.
    unsealed.....anything at or less than $1000 is what to expect, good deal if its closer to $800.
    sealed......over $1000.

    Happy hunting!

    My better half and I are saving up to build our next home. Other than paying for a new body part, this reason ranks high on my list of reasons to part with my PJ vinyl.

    I saw one on eBay recently with a starting bid of either $850 or $900....and it didn't sell. Relisted with starting bid of $800 and it sold for $800.
    Robby, maybe that was you? It was only a month ago I think.

    Minus fees that's almost $700. Very nice.
  • Got mine on eBay back in the day for €200. The bidding ended on Christmas Day so I gather most people weren't on their dial ups during Christmas dinner. I was. Couldn't believe it. Think it came from Denmark or something if I remember correctly. Some very very mild wear in the corner but it plays perfectly.
    It's number 2000 as well which is pretty sweet.

    Haha, ya that was yours then. I was watching :)
    I was hoping it would end with no bid and be relisted a little lower again. Can't quite pull the trigger at $800.
