    Rare Amiga games

    Sadly these days most Amiga games are not worth much. It is common for most games to be found on ebay selling individually for £0.99 or as big lots of 20+ games for under £10. But there are rare exceptions that do still attract collectors and command much higher prices.

    At the moment a mint condition boxed copy of Moonstone is selling, and has so far reached £66 which is very high for an Amiga game, original and mint or not.

    Are there any other Amiga games you have seen sell for a high price? Or do you know of any Amiga games that are now rare and as sort after?

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    £66 is a lot of money for Moonstone, but I can't say I'm highly surprised. It is a *real* collectors item and very, very hard to get hold of. Would of course like a copy myself, but it's not often one sees it available. Maybe luck smiles sometime in the future at a market with second-hand stuff. Have seen some Amiga and C64 stuff at such markets, so it's possible to make some bargains.

    By the way.. I've noticed that Amiga games doesn't go for much in the US or the UK. I think things are different here in Norway. As there aren't many Amiga items for sale, the prices tend to get a bit higher.

    I vaguely remember getting rid of my copy of Moonstone... some lucky charity shop, as far as I remember (along with my A500)...

    To clarify that situation... D'OH!!!!! I is a plonker!

    Well regarding rare titles, I still haven't seen First Samurai on Ebay for sale, only the Super Nintendo version.
