The state of retro game collecting…

[@KoRnKnoTTeR]

That dude selling a gameboy for 7k must be out of his damn mind. But the person willing to buy it, though, would be the crazier one.

[@Holdenmagroyn]

I think that's what everything has come to. People who sell things for a living now have the mindset of "SOMEONE, SOMEWHERE, EVENTUALLY, will come buy this overpriced item"

[@PostTraumaticChessDisorder]

The graded market comes crashing down. Go watch Karl Jobst videos on that topic. It's been a temporary trend within the 'collector' market. I can see the appeal, but the price tag of 7K means that just the fact some dude gave a grade and an acrylic case to it adds a multiplier of about 5 to 7 times its original value. Everyone once hopped on the grading bandwagon, now that bubble (which I knew was destined to burst after a short time) comes ricocheting back. I think this guy is never going to sell it anymore for that outrageous price since that market segment is completely out and on its way back...

[@johnb8190]

That’s why a year went by and no one bought it yet. No one dumb enough to pay that absurd price.

[@megamegaO]

They really don't care. There's a sucker born every minute. Someone will either be dumb enough to buy it...or buy it because they can and flex.

[@LordDiscord]

​@Holdenmagroyn No I honestly believe it's part of a scam, where they will over inflate the price of something to fool people into thinking this item is really worth that much the they wait for the copycats to come along and over inflate the market then they will decrease their price, to a more reasonable price but still well over what it's actually worth and then people looking for that item will then believe they found a deal when in reality they still got ripped off

[@janordanu2008]

I called it quits on retro collecting in 2020 and decided I have everthing I needed. Since then prices have only gotten worse

[@Fools_Requiem]

Prices skyrocketed after the pandemic. Everything was completely normal, and then the pandemic hit, and it was crazy. My hope is that we get more and more re-releases like the Capcom Fighting Collections. The Switch has been pretty important to the market. Loads of collection releases. Also, repros have gotten better. No way would I pay the 700+ on Little Samson, but I'd pay the 20 or so for a repro cart that lets me play on original hardware instead of an emulator. Even better are those Everdrives, which let you play emulated games on original hardware and let you decide what is worth shelling out for actual copies. Stuff is getting more expensive, but it is really nice to see that people are making it easier for the rest of us to get our hands on games and playing them on original hardware.

Is it only ok if your parents wasted their money on you, so now you're angry you have to pay $30 USD vs $200 in today's money for the average game on Genesis/SNES/etc? Have you ever considered that you shouldn't buy games if you don't have money? Or at least don't hoarde them and think about what you want instead of buy to buy.

Yeah. Any kind of hobby that goes mainstream at some point ends up turning into an overpriced crap show. Old comics, videogames. All that stuff that we use to trade and do together as kids for fun and want to come back to as adults. But what goes up must come down. Atari played a pretty big hand in crashing the market back in the day and I figure it will take a plunge again because of all this crap, Game corporations included.

Whenever I sell games, I NEVER sell them for high price. For example, I got Kirby’s dreamland gb for 30$ but didn’t really like it, so sold it for 20. I know I lost 10$ but there might be another kid who wants it more than me. Sad to see this hobby die

[@platinumuschannel]

I stopped collecting for the most part several years ago when everyone and their brother decided their copy of Tetris on the Gameboy, with a damaged label, was worth a lot of money. I'm clearly exaggerating, but everyone started doing it. Luckily I made out very well. Allow me to make a comparison: I'm into flipping vehicles now. Ten years ago, I could buy a rare Jeep Comanche or a common Jeep Cherokee for less than $500 in decent shape, flip it cheap (and thoughtfully, mind you, no tricks), and turn around and buy another and do it again. Now a lot more people are starting to do that and the margins just aren't there. I could say the same thing about buying a box of random stuff for 50 cents at auction, and turning that 50 cent box into $50 in a few days. Not anymore. Now here's the part that will potentially offend gamers (not my problem): Gaming has become too big for its own breeches, too mainstream, and too watered down. Everyone is doing it now, and when everyone is doing it, you either have saturation or in this case gouging/gate keeping. "My copy of Super Mario 64 may not actually be worth $50, but to the right person, it is!" I see it all the time now, and thus unless you've already amassed a huge collection and you did it when the market was still accessible, lesser known, and cheap, you aren't making reasonable investments. Sorry if you disagree, but I don't need confirmation, I see it.

[@darkridearts]

You're right

[@asimplenameichose151]

This is the truth. If you consider your 'retro' game collection an 'investment', especially if you're building it now, it is probably time to revisit priorities. Unfortunately, I am still slowly rebuilding a small collection now because I was compelled more than once in the past to sell a somewhat larger collection I had built in simpler times for home / medical emergency funding. Really trying to pare back my lists to what I really want, will play, will pass forward to my children or children of my friends / family in the future because the demand is too high / market is just too hot now.

I'm figuring that type of influx is going to happen sooner, like in 20 to 25 years. The first big wave will be people who decide to cash out when they retire or want to retire. I think that first wave of selling off may cause panic sell-offs as others who planned to hold watch the value of their collections plummet. In my opinion most collectors have way too much money tied up into their collection as compared to other assets, which leads me to believe a lot of people are going to need to cash out at some point. I've already seen multiple long time collectors sell off that I didn't really expect.
