Yeah.....with the convenience of leaving off the Speed Racer part of the Exertainment title in the second group, I started to feel it too.  I mean if you're all excited about finding out that Ninja Gaiden Trilogy is worth that much wouldn't you want to make sure you didn't make a mistake on listing additional titles?  He does say it's his wife giving him the titles over text....but I'd be like......listen give me the full titles!

I hope we're wrong because this would be an EPIC find.  One of the best I've seen.  

But I'm starting to have my doubts.  UNLESS OP CAN PROVE US WRONG!!!!!!

I'm confused though, why would a parent buy their kid a Entertainment Mountain Bikerally / Speed Racer combo?? Were these even available in stores?

Well the words / art "Speed Racer" on that box is the difference between a $200 game and a multi thousand dollar game, that's why some are asking. Also, it scares me that you said EB sold already. 9 times out of 10, the first offer is nowhere near market value. Live and learn.

Preach it brother Jonas!  I agree with everything he just said.

And yes that's why I'm asking.  Because it makes a 15 fold difference in value.

Wow, if this is legit, that's the weirdest story I've ever heard... And also pretty depressing. You know most kids would have killed to get games like that.. I'm pretty jealous of the techy parents bit myself

I got a little money for good grades from my parents (nice incentive). I always used that money to buy my games.

Be smart here everyone. I have no reason to believe what the OP says isn't true, but we have seen people show up with awesome stories before. Be sure to protect yourself if you are sending money, ie NO GIFT.

By the way, there is no such thing as a factory sealed Earthbound. They didn't come sealed.

not only that OP, you posted "Earthbound sold".  I hope you really did your research to see what a NIB Earthbound is really worth and didn't just sell to the first seemingly large number.  You'd be very surprised what a gem mint perfect Earthbound can fetch.

yeah, didnt they just have the little circle sticker thingys on the ends?
def no shrink wrap

also, can someone clear this up for me too
did they release a "normal" size box of earthbound in the box without the guide?
I saw one they other day, and wasnt sure if the box was just a reprint?
thanks

I'm going to have to agree, no offense to the OP. At first this seemed pretty amazing and too good to be true, but there are just too many red flags to ignore. Obviously the "factory sealed" Earthbound was one of those.
