    I'd be interested in a couple at £5 each, Anything over that seems a little over the top.

    True, he can ask what he wants, doesn't mean that the price is worth it.

    Anyone want to buy my old, duff SNES for £170, unboxed, one pad and all leads?

    This is an old argument but where else can you get blank GD-Rs? I can go out and get many a SNES in the next hour if i wanted to...

    Honestly? not many places, but I know 100% I can get written GDR's for a lot less. Hell I bought packaged Saturn CDR's for less than these loose GDR's.

    I said I can, I doubt the seller would let you have them for that price. And no, I wont buy them and sell them to anyone.

    I'm the one that has bought a few from adam-james. I know that LeGIt asking price was lower but adam bought the whole spindle. He can ask whatever he wants for the discs, blank GD-Rs are not usual to find...

    It's a question of supply and demand in this case (or any case when it comes down to collecting rare items).

    If people are willing to pay the price then let them.

    If your sooo concerned about people dying from hunger then sell your entire collection and give the money to some african aid fund, were all free to do with our money as we please.

    Hmm, well what about a VERY rare GD-R spindle, sealed, being opened and sold individually? You'll never see another sealed spindle, whereas the discs sometimes turn up individually. So you tell me which is rarer... and how that is any different to putting in a switch.

    Putting in a switch is the owner's choice, and they do it so they can play import games easily (no need for a 2nd/3rd unit). Splitting a rare pack of GD-Rs... sure the owner's choice again, but the purpose is only to make a profit.

    And Legit told me the buyer bought the spindle because he couldn't bear to see it get split up :smt011

    Oh, and if you want my opinion, I think its really cheeky and not very sporting to come onto a forum and say - well I'll have ALL those GD-Rs that you're selling at £15 each (oh really? huge discount? ta very much)... there's yer money. oh btw, I'm selling them at £25 each now.

    Fair enough to buy something somewhere, then go and sell it for a profit elsewhere... sure we've all done that. However, to do it in the VERY place that you bought it, IMHO that's not on. :smt009

    Am I alone in this opinion?
