Sanitarium

Ello Boomers,

I thought some of you would whant to know.

So far is selling for $ 100.00.

Love,

Cathy

Sell my SANITARIUM? Are you kidding? I intend to play it again in due course of time. I hold it close to my bosom.

As far as I know, Sanitarium fetches 22 - 45 bucks on eBay. I haven't seen it anywhere for 100 dollars. Where did you see that?

Betje

Betje,

one was sold at Amazon for $100.00. That one is gone. but you can see more there at Marketplace.

Regards,

Cathy

Wow! That's amazing!!

I presently have a boxed copy for sale at eBay...it isn't attracting much attention so far.
Item# 1949481273 if anyone is interested.

Hello Cynch,

Love,

Cathy

Yes, you're right. There's one for sale right now: only 90 dollars. Like wow! The Dig is rising like a comet too: there are 3 NIB's on offer for $59, $99 and $125. I don't get it. Why would anyone pay that kind of money for a game that will cost far less elsewhere.

Betje

Betje,

not evebody like to shop at e-bay.

I sell adventure collections to the Japanese and they pay lots dollars for it. The rich Japanese, like to be anonymous. Some time, i have to fallow their orders via 3, 4, different e-mails. to contract with them. Long story....

Also, some americans, like to stay on the dark side when i sell them items.
Some buyers, look my items at ebay, and contact me personally. They also do this at Amazon: and send me a private e-mail.

Other people, shop at Amazon course they are at office or at work. They don`t have much time, and usually buy and pay instantly. This people, usually are high professionist.

Cathy

It's good to know you are on e-bay, Cynch! I've placed a bid for a game of yours (not Sanitarium, though). I'm Aspectsfan on e-bay (I've never sold there, just bought!) It's always good to see someone on there that you know you can trust.
Thanks,
Beth
Edited to add: Amen, Advpuzlov! Sanitarium is a true "keeper."

Hi Beth....
Yeh...after GBs, eBay is the most fun ever! I've been buying/selling there for a long time. It's another one of my addictions.

It's great fun to watch the fluctuations in price for the various games...a lot more fun than watching the Nasdaq/Dow. I never make any money with this hobby, though...as I buy more games than I sell.

Man, this kind of sucks for me. My CD 1 to this game exploded in my drive, so I have a copy of CD 1, although the rest is original. Guess I shouldn't be upset though. I have all the original papers and box, etc. in perfect condition, and heck....I probably would never get rid of mine anyway! It's one of my favorite games!

I too noticed that the price of the Dig was going quite high.. It used to go for around just $5.. but I noticed in the last month it has gone up considerable (although certainly not $100 ) I wonder if Lucasarts stopped sellign it... (I know they had it on their site for $20 brand new just a couple of months ago)

ONE MOMENT LATER

Well, I couldn't find it on the Lucasarts site! They were always so good about selling their old titles.. that is disapointing But that does explain why the price has gone up !

This is amazing. CD Access was selling Sanitarium just 2 weeks ago.

Someone looking for The Dig?

~Dee

About 2 -3 months ago, LucasArts dropped a number of their older titles from their on-line store.

If anyone's interersted, I've got some older LucasArts games available (including The Dig) over in the Trading Post.

Thanks for the info, Catlee.

I don't think there's any danger of The Dig ever becoming one of those really rare games. And didn't I read on this forum that LucasArts has announced a new Entertainment Pack which includes The Dig?

Betje

Hi Dee,

i am always interested on games, e-mail me.

I am start get it e-mail from Europian collectors for the 'Dig'.

Hi Betje,

collectors don`t look for 'pack' games, they whant the 'first original boxed single game', if they find one or two.

Love,

Cathy.

Yes, that's true. But the rich collectors can have their first editions and there will still be enough "pack" games for the rest of us ordinary people. It wouldn't be like Alice, Celtica, Monet or Dinotopia.

Betje

I am with you on this Betje.

I like see company and developers put out games, especially 'pack' games for the regular gamers, including myself. It is good for the economy; it open jobs for people, and make money go round. Also keep people busy with their mind and ands, wich is very important, instead sit in front of TV and do nothing but, deteriorate their brain and their body. Gaming is very good for any uman age.

Course, i don`t mind see rich people circolate their money in good investment as adventure games.

That's the boat I am in to with my copy of it. I probably would of never got rid of it either tho. What if the people that pay $100.00 for it play it and their's explode too?! That's alot of money to be out.

Josie

GirlGeek and Josie,

don`t give up just yet, on your Sanitarium.
As long you have the box, manuals and the rest of original cd`s, the value still up there. Just hold on a little longer.
I have sold rare games to collectors, with one burned copy, but the rest of the CDs were original.

Wen a collector looks for a rare game, and he(usually my clients are male) can`t find, he will buy what he can. As long he has the box, original papers and the rest of the original CD`s.

Cathy.

I just finished playing Sanitarium for the third time and it sure is a good game, but it isn't worth 100.00 dollars. Maybe to a collector it is. I think I will hold on to it a little longer.
Richard

No offence Catlee, but I think the Sanitariums are disappearing from Amazon because the people have given up trying to sell them. You won't catch me spending more than $20 for it.

There is boxed Sanitarium for $60.
