I recently won a new and sealed copy of Killer 7 for the PS2 for $0.01. Part of the reason may have been that the seller accidentally put the gallery picture of a different game, but I sent him a message and sure enough the auction was for a new copy of Killer 7, score!

I also just won the Genesis game Phantom 2040 for $0.01 - thanks Racketboy for exposing me to the game.

I've had tons of .99 cent and under auctions, but those are the two .01 auctions that come to mind.

It's easy to get stuff like that for .01 when the shipping is jacked up.
They are just getting around eBay fees.

Last year I got a sealed copy of Perfect Dark for 0.01. And the shipping was only 4 or 5 bucks too. Its nothing super special, and I wasnt even in the market for the game, I just figured since the auction was almost over and it was so cheap I'd bid a penny. It worked out well for me.

EDIT: BTW thanks for the FF test. I got my favorite character (but i didnt answer 100% truthfully becuase I was trying to get him on purpose.) It was a couple minutes of fun. Haha after doing it truthfully I got stuck with Steiner: Loyal and Grouchy. Thats great.

i've won a number of music cds in the past for a cent apiece. buying from the same seller really helps lower the price of shipping and a better deal in general. i think i've won some really good games for a cent, or at least well under a dollar

This can be true, but I find many times the deals are still really good. Shipping for Phantom 2040 was $3.47 shipping. When I bought the Killer 7, I bought two games from the seller, first game is 7.95 shipping, all additional games are 5.95 shipping. The first game I bought was Castle Shikigami 2 for $0.99, then the second game was Killer 7. Total cost to me for the two games, with shipping included was $14.90. I was also going to get Mobile Light Force 2 (Castle Shikigami 1) from the same seller for .99, but ended up going with another auction was was .69 cents and 6 shipping. These are great prices for complete games.

Yep, personally I think it is immoral. But that is just me. Mr. immorality here actually has some!

I got Command & Conquer for the SATURN new factory sealed for a penny with 2 dollars shipping from some folk in missouri and its a legal US copy, i guess that could be considerd a good deal.
