Marvel Vs Capcom 2 for the PS2 and Xbox

I was at a Gamestop store and they had this game used for $79.99. I told the manager, are you serious but I knew he had nothing to do with it, it was a corporate thing. I wonder how much a new copy would sell for...

That is the point there is no new copies of the game anymore...It's rare so it's worth more so the game costs more.

There is a Ps3 and 360 version coming out so this version should be less, I expected $40.00 at most, they are making like $70.00 profit.

With games like that, it's a given that they're gonna be expensive no matter where you look for them.

An employee in my local gamestop tried to tell me that the Xbox 360 Elites don't break down.

I laughed and told him to try stand-up comedy.

It's a corporation. They want money. Therefore they will sell rare items for more than they were when initially released and tell you lies in order for you to open your wallet.

TC, do you even know the history of Marvel vs Capcom 2?

MvC2 was made in limited copies for the Xbox and PS2. Prior to it finally be made for download, it went for insane amounts on Ebay. This had nothing to do with Gamestop trying to pull the wool over the eyes of the customers.

It doesn't matter if there's another version that's not rare. The point is that the version you wanted is rare.

Collectors pay big bucks for black label versions of games, even when they can get other versions for cheap.
