what is this game worth CIB and what is it worth factory sealed? anybody know? the box and manual arent listed with rarities on NA, and the cart is listed as an 8 rarity. thanks!
The PAL version of this is pretty hard to find CIB, and much harder to find sealed. The US one is much easier to find sealed, even though it wasn't part of the overstock found in the last few years. Because these aren't really in high demand AFAIK, it's hard to put a value on them. Maybe one of the UK collectors can chime in on this one. I've had my copy for 5 years at least, so I'm not sure what the value is these days. If I had to guess, a sealed copy would be worth around $75, and a CIB copy around $40.
ive had my copy for about 5+ years as well. it is sealed and in 10/10 condition. i got it for like $10 back then on ebay. i just have no idea what it is worth. i am still missing the US version's box and manual/poster, but at least i have the PAL version!
Calling all UK collectors... is dain's assessment accurate?
I don't know if this would be limited to UK collectors, as I think they may have been released throughout Europe, but just in lower quantities in some regions (multiple German collectors have claimed that the Codemasters games work on PAL-B consoles).
Cosmic Spacehead is pretty much the rarest of the Codemasters releases IMO, and I've seen the Codemasters games sell for anywhere between 10 and 50 euro for a CIB copy, so sealed I'd also bet on at least 40-50 euro (~65-80+ USD).
It's definitely close in rarity, but I think I've seen more FireHawks than Cosmic Spaceheads. Not on the UK eBay though, but on some of the other European eBays (primarily the French eBay). Here's an auction I just won about a week ago with a boxed FireHawk:
thanks for the input guys! i never really knew that this was rare. i picked it up sealed from a US ebay seller many many years ago for less than $10. i dont really collect pal stuff, but i used to pick up any sealeds for under $10!
