Resident Evil: Archives (ONE)

I was browsing Ebay and found a fairly cheap copy of RE Archives. I know some fans have been looking for it.
I thought I would share my find.

"May not ship to Finland"

Well... Fuck.

Poor Massy.

You can get it fairly cheap if you buy it in the bundle with the second one. I already have the second one but fuck paying 50 quid for a book.

Sorry Mass

It was bought, I wonder if it was bought by anyone on here? lol

Here, I found an even cheaper one!

Again, "May not ship to Finland".

What's up with you Americans and the hatred for Finland?!

I wonder why they're getting cheaper. They use to run for over $100.

Hmm... Maybe someone has gotten wind of a new print and people are trying to sell theirs with a moderate price before the used sales plummet?

That may be true. I'm going to do some research on that.

Wow, that's weird maybe it's because shipping is so expensive anymore?

Maybe the sellers listing them cheaper don't realize how much the book is really worth. What Mass said is very possible too, then again
the first prints of the book should still be worth more regardless of the reprint coming out.

The release of the two pack for $40 is the answer actually as Barber said. If they could sell their original copy for $20 they could get it for $26 on amazon.

Your lack of oil reserves, probably.

BAM! A nice prive for both books.

Woo! I can actually get the double pack in here too!

I can now sell my Archives II and get some money back.

Yeah, they did a re-print of the original archives in 2012. That's why the prices went down. I won't bother providing a link because it is easy enough find on your own. I still got first edition, not that I wouldn't be perfectly happy with the newer edition. It's all about the content.

EDIT: woops, I didn't see you guys had already established that they had re-printed =P sorry about that!

That sucks. I payed over 90 bucks for mine. Actually I just traded my M4 soft-air assault rifle, but my friend payed over 90 bucks for it. What a rip-off!

Same here, I paid somewhere around $90 for my copy. Thankfully I didn't have to do any sacrificing like you though. I just happened to have money at the time. I wouldn't regret purchasing it, you didn't know. I found out because I randomly wanted to check what the recent prices were like. What I found was a bunch of people saying they were selling "2012 re-prints".

The reprints still have the same mistakes as the original prints sadly.

I don't regret my purchase either.

You have the reprint don't you? I think I remember you saying you got the bundle.

I wouldn't mind paying another measley 30 bucks for a reprint that's in better condition than the original Archives that I have though. So that I have two, just in case one catches on fire, or the pages rip, or whatever. A spare is always nice.

Indeed, I had to lol when I read in the RE2 chapter, during the Birkin train fight, that a ' Resident Evil has been detected'. It's like they replaced all the words saying biohazard with ' Resident Evil'. Very poor and why they couldn't fix this for the reprint I do not know.
