Time to start making some reproductions. Could get enough to pay off my house if I don't flood the market!

lol, good luck with that one. Just don't forget to add some store stickers to make it look "authentic"

I think he had some indication of its value...he put up just the cart before, which is still worth quite a bit (though nowhere near 31k!), but after he found the box, he pulled that auction and put it up again. It wasn't quite like the stadium events auction where the person selling wasn't expecting any tangible value - this guy saw one of the top x rarest games articles, and air raid was on it.

But still, to have 30k sitting in a storage box for umpteen years. He's lucky he kept the box around, and in good shape, as I know most kids that young tend not to do

I saw this game at Linens and Things for 50 cents. I only had enough for a new toilet seat cover though so I passed on it. Looked like a crap game anyway.
