Eek Most Expensive Amiga Game Ever?

I don't know what the rarest Amiga game is (probably a mint condition Akira or something), but the guy selling this must be off his rocker!

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Amiga-The-Godf...1%7C240%3A1318

(It aint even sealed, its used!)

£250 ????

Yea there are some weirdos out there. Don't know if Mint Akira is that rare, i got a perfect Akira for 2€ some years back.

Have a look at this:

Not exactly a game but nevertheless totally weird.

Must be a typo. I've bought stuff from him before. Quite quick and well described stuff.

yeah, airey36 is a cool guy. Bought a couple of my 500s from him in the past. I guess with these games being kind of sentimental to him then the prices will be crazy...

I saw this thread and thought we would be discussing the most expensive NEW game sold back in the day... That would be interesting.

Sent him a sarcastic message, it was never worth £2.99 back in the day, it sure as hell aint worth anything like his list price.
