I have a feeling I'll have to defend what I'm up to from time to time, so might as well do it again.
The point of my list here is to hopefully get people to quit paying outrageous prices for some of these games. If it's not on this list, that means they should be able to get it new, and cheap, right now. I'll probably add Gwyndion's list of repro makers in the first post to guide them that way.
If it is on this list, it probably doesn't come up for sale very often. When I first started buying these things, I didn't know what they were, where they were sold, for how much, or what the last one went for. I wanted something like the 3/5 screw list I stumbled upon back when I first started collecting. I took the legwork out of looking this stuff up. And, if someone is about to buy one and wants to know what the last one sold for, maybe this will help out.
And I don't think I could be anymore transparent. I added the listings that I got the prices from. You just pointed out an error. I fixed it. How is that misleading?

Oh, my

I'd also like to add that I've got my father's gun and a *scorching*
