What the fuck is this, and why is it worth 36K?

VGA cases aren't meant to be opened. Why wouldn't he want to put it in something like that so whoever spends the absurd amount of money doesn't get smart and opens it up to find a repro rom.

1. If real it'd be worth "something. No clue how much. Hundreds or maybe a thousand.
2. How can he prove that it's legit? What is the order of ownership? Can he prove all these things?

If games go for whatever price people are willing to pay, then how do you determine the price of something that doesn't sell?

I didn't see that before. Is it a recent change? If so, why is the price still 36K?

>>1149617

You determine it as "less than whatever the seller demanded for it". No reason a price can't be an interval until we get more data.
