Last week, eBay user lace_thongs35 put up for auction an 80s-era Nintendo Entertainment System & 5-games cartridges. Within an hour after the first bid, the price was over $6,000. By end of auction Wednesday, the final selling price...$13, 105. YES, 13-THOUSAND BUCKs!
I bet you're wondering why the hell this eBay auction hit 6-digits, right? Well, I can tell you that it wasn't for the NES console...that was run-of-the-mill NES product. Lace_Thongs35's auction had a mega-rare game cartridge called Stadium Events and game-geeks sport the perpetual-boner for this game. But the the game alone wasn't the biggest ticket, it was the cardboard box which sports a price tag of $10,000 all on its own. It's believed that fewer than 10-complete copies exist (cartridge & box).
Now, I ask you "Did you have this game when you were a kid?" "Did your mom Garage Sale it for 25¢ when she cleaned out your room that year you moved away to college?"
