This must be a joke.
I have an original copy of Silent Hill, and the average copy on amazon/ebay is going for 60-100 dollars.
I bought this game used almost a decade ago for 17.99
is it really that rare?

Probably it's the last copy on earth. :lol:
Some people would actually buy it. If they're too thick that is.
Mine is all scratched. :( May it rest in peace.
I'm from the UK so the price for Silent Hill is nowhere near that high, but its still worth a fair bit over here.
It's not rare because there are so many copies of SH. It also went platinum, which again shows how much it must of sold. The reason why the price has risen quickly the last 2 years is because of the demand of the game.
You have to realise that the SH film was released recently and was successful. Also SH Origins on psp just came out, and on top of that we have the new SH5 coming out shortly. Also SH2 the film will be out next year or 2010.
As you can see there's so much buzz around silent hill at the moment, people are starting to realise if they want to have the full series they should pick SH up now rather than later.I'm from the UK so the price for Silent Hill is nowhere near that high, but its still worth a fair bit over here.

Yeah it's still worth a fair bit here, but sorry mate I have to disagree I would say it is very rare to find in the UK. If you aren't using ebay or amazon, then it's like finding gold if you find Silent Hill for the PS1. I finally managed to get it off www.gameseek.co.uk brand new! My sister got it for me last Christmas and it cost something like £25. I got it with Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare, Tomb Raider Chronicles and RE3. You should check that site out for PS1 games.
I remember a few years back, where there was like a boat load of Silent Hill copy's for the PS1 all over the place. Not sure if was a back stock or Konami released more copies for a short time, but they were everywhere. Mind you, this was way after Silent Hill came out. Like in 2005-2006. Got my copy right there and than for $10. Brand new and sealed.(well, not anymore at least). Feel bad for you guys in the UK if finding a copy of Silent Hill is hard to find.Solidus_Mute
Well I have it now so that's the main thing. I would only give it away after I've completed it and am fully satisfied with time I spend on it. Only then would I think of selling it for a pretty penny. I doubt I'd ever simply give it away. Same goes for alot of my other PS1 games like Alone in the Dark and RE/'s. Hell I have all the PS1 Tomb Raider's so maybe one day they might be worth something good to someone.
Sell it.Silent hill isnt worth 100colts99
A game is worth exactly how much people are willing to pay for it, and I see copies of this game sell for $100 often on E-Bay...
Silent Hill is one of my favorite games of all time, and I have been wanting to get this game back for years, but I don't think I'd pay $100 for it...
