Black Friday finds: $12,000 sealed yellow-boxed SNES game
You could hit the stores and get those $30 copies of EA games from earlier this year. Or! Or you could go way back to the Super Nintendo era and get the kids something they'd really love. Actually, kids wouldn't even play a Super Nintendo. Stupid kids. A seller on eBay has this rare yellow-boxed Super Mario World. It's a bummer about the PAL part. The price is also a bummer at the USD equivalent $12,747. And that for that money they won't ship to the USA. I'm sure you can talk them into it, though. Here's why:
More than a million, guys. 53 bids already. If that's too rich for your blood, try this metal-boxed SNES copy of Street Fighter II Turbo. It's only about $600. Sealed. [Thanks, GameSniped] Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
