It ended at $41.300 (http://cgi.ebay.com/FACTORY-SEALED-NEW-NES-NINTENDO-STADIUM-EVENTS-NTSC_W0QQitemZ140384097750QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Vi ntage_Video_Games?hash=item20af8b55d6)

One born every minute.

Look at the bidding history, it's a fake bid all with fake/false accounts...

eh? im not that knowledgeable with ebay tbh, how do you tell theyre fake?

Looks real enough to me. The only thing I found hysterical is their evidence for the date.

Taking a picture of the item with a calendar page and the date written on an envelope really isn't my idea of evidence.

I think they probably got confused over all the cash they made!

I would say its fake because.. look @ http://offer.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&item=140384097750

and the winning bid only has 1 feedback, there's no way that ANYONE would sell to a 1 feedback for $40k+ - would you?

looks like the same person pushed it up from 22.000 to 39?

a guy on another forum said even if the winner is fake, somebody with over a 1000 feedback cant be really, and if you took theres youd still be 40.000 better off

This wiki page explains the reason why the games is valued so highly:

One of those sold a few weeks ago for a king's ransom. I was wondering why a NES with a few games was going for thousands of dollars til I noticed that game was with it.

Seems pretty reasonable to me!

i thought the rarest nes game was the world championships gold edition?

Yeah, I think that's right. It was only made for the Nintendo World Championship though, Stadium Events is the rarest retail game.

I wish I could get me hands on a copy of them!
Do you know how much the gold zelda cart sells for?

The NES one? Don't think it's rare. I had one years ago. They switched to grey ones for the last production runs so the greys are probably rarer than the gold ones!
