What something is worth and what something will sell for on ebay are 2 drastically different numbers

uber2nded!!

I third this. I personally never understood the statisfaction that people get of looking at a sealed item. to each their own though, I guess.
Good Sellers (in my experience)
Samurai Ghost, Keith Courage, Bernie, tggodfrey, bartre (hoping to add more to this list soon)

As they're both factory sealed in this case the Sylphia is worth more than the Sapphire.
A factory sealed Sapphire is much more common than a factory sealed Sylphia.
 :D
LOL, what are you talking about? :)

Just what I said  :D, to find Sylphia factory sealed is quite rare.
On the other hand a factory sealed Sapphire you see alot more often.
 :D

Yeh there's lots of fake Sapphires about, but you see genuine sealed ones alot more than sealed Sylphias.

Really?? maybe its just me, I used to see approx 5 sealed Sapphires come up a year.
But other than the one in this thread I've only ever seen two other sealed Sylphias.
 :D

Saying that I'm completely out of the loop as I've nearly completely stopped buying video games.
Still play all the games I've already got, just stopped buying any more.

Sylphia (sealed) should worth more.  I bought a mint copy in 2010 and spent $190 shipped.
