Me too. Irks me when it's something that I want, too, but I don't want
to encourage such behavior. I do my best to avoid eBay sellers who
either overhype their items or charge ridiculous shipping for profit.
After all, rarity can be debated a good bit -- is Panzer Dragoon Saga
truly rare when it is so easily found on eBay?

I only see one Time Killers auction... with a Buy It Now of $89.99 and
no real obnoxious hype:

On the other hand, there are eight Radiant Silvergun auctions up.
Which game is rare?
