Phaiston have long avoided the tightly competetive defence sector, but the IRDA Act 2052 has given us the freedom we need to bring out something really special.

Sausage party looks both cool and good. CineD is a little farther down the forums list. There you can discuss how Sausage Party is low-brow garbage and you'd rather watch some rare, French film from 1923 in the Criterion collection.

The average is 5.5? I thought it was 4. This is very unsettling.

EBay killed the value in collectables. We we went from having to know a guy that knew a guy, going to conventions/swap meets/etc, digging around skeezy garage sales only to find out that when Ebay came around very few "rare" things were really that rare and you could have it delivered to your house in less than a week at a quarter of the price you would have paid pre-ebay.

Right the actually rare as gently caress special Ed. Ones that were given out at conferences or to staff and stuff like that or that one camel who had a short run go for like 600 to 1200 dollars. But that couples piles are probably all regular beanie babies which last I checked are really abundantly available second hand and are mostly worthless.

I dunno maybe some beanie baby goon will drop in outta nowhere and school me on the second hand beanie baby market.

My uncle had a Wayne Gretzky card that was listed as being worth $500+ in one of those "what cards cost" books because it was really rare (had to send in Jello box tops to get it). As soon as eBay came out it was revealed that there were a shitload of those cards out there and $100 for an absolute mint condition one was as good a price as one could expect to get.

when this topic first got mentioned I googled it and some price guide said the most valuable one was worth 1800. it quickly went down from there with only a few being worth more than a couple hundred, the tenth most valuable is worth 300, the 25th only 150

Haha that's a big difference from the crappy listicle I was reading. A little under half of the entries are worth less than $5!

My favorite thing is when people go crazy for stuff that are specifically branded as "limited edition!" on the box, but every store just happens to have hundreds of them on display at any given time. People will believe anything is going to be worth something in that magic "20 years from now" time period if you tell them so. Even if there's literally a million of them readily available for sale in their state alone.

It's weird because I bought a bunch of SNES consoles like four years ago for a project. I paid maybe $30 each and they're worth like $100 each now. My laziness in selling them has netted me a 300%+ return on my investment. Why Beanie Babies or Hummel figures aren't worth anything is beyond me because a Super Nintendo is not rare.

Also "limited edition" stuff is usually bullshit but I bought those Zelda Majoras Mask 3DS consoles and made a killing so I don't know why bideo games are the exception but they are, for some reason.

Wasn't Peanut the Elephant worth like $10,000 at some point?

retro games prices now are up because of hipsters and nostalgia craze and people like AVGN. Dr Jeklly and Mister Hyde is a garbage game you could get for a $1 before his review and now it's like $15

resellers are scum

It's because you rarely see someone buy a console or a game cartridge and put it in a lucite container in a safety deposit box. Kids used them and threw them out when the next big thing came along. While the games/consoles are still not rare, the people who want to buy them will pay a premium for a decent-good condition example.

Objective rarity doesn't ultimately mean much, there has to be high demand and a constrained supply for prices to go up, and Nintendo products have a colossal nostalgia push as well as frequently-botched distribution, which many other products including rival videogame brands can't match.

How bout that guy Dahlmer was raping and torturing who somehow escaped and ran into two police officers who didn't believe his story and let him go with Dahlmer when he caught up not that much later.

The funny thing is that guy had a hole drilled into his skull, where Dahmer poured in boiling water, hoping it would make the guy more submissive.

Like, the cops saw a man with a hole drilled through his skull and thought "typical queers, we should bring him back to his lover" - what???

He was also bleeding from his anus. When the officers inspected Dahlmer's apartment there was 3 day old dead body In his bedroom. Dalhmer produced Polaroids of the victim in his underwear as proof they were lovers. The two cops were fired , but they appealed and we're both reinstated. One of them was elected president of the Police Union. #bluelivesmatter
