      Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Collectors edition is selling for $450 on eBay

      eBay sellers already have this edition up for $400

        People actually paying that much? People can also bid on ebay and not pay so I am not sure how accurate that is?

  • Ravensbane on 09/06/2022 - 13:15

    As far as CE goes this ones pretty average. Not worth the $ imo but you will still get boatloads scalping this.

      agree, i was expecting a free body pillow cover or something…

    • JL1 on 09/06/2022 - 14:00

      Only artbook and crappy steel case. Would it actually be easy to scalp or require waiting a long time before it's valuable?

      Always wondered what happens if you sell on ebay and buyer says they didn't receive it or something. Any protection for seller there?

      • Megumin on 09/06/2022 - 14:12

        If you have tracking that confirms delivery to thier address then it's considered delivered by eBay.

        • JL1 on 09/06/2022 - 14:51

          So as long as my shipping is tracked then it's okay? Wondered what would happen if sell something and they say it's broken or fake, etc. Or that would require them to ship it back.

          • Megumin on 09/06/2022 - 15:08

            @JL1: For something high value it would be tracking and a signature on delivery so postie can't just leave it if no one is there to recieve it.

            If something is damaged or buyer claims it's not as described then the seller has to provide them with a shipping label to return for a refund.

            • JL1 on 12/06/2022 - 16:09

              @Megumin: Thanks for the info! I am worried to sell sneakers in case they try to swap and return fakes. Or whether it's safe to sell a ps5 on ebay.

              I've had a lot of posties just drop off and not even ring bell. I wonder if some option I selected ages ago or they are just lazy.

    • RocketSwitch on 09/06/2022 - 15:32

      It's $60 more for a 250 page artbook and a steelcase. It will increase in value over time.

    • andehh on 09/06/2022 - 18:05

      ??? What would you consider a good collectors edition then because I consider this to be perfect. The artbooks they include in these are beautiful and huge like the 'The Art of X' artbooks you'd see sold separately for many games.

      Including a vinyl like the the XC:DE one is really the only way I see it could be better.

      Overall it's so much better than the plastic junk other CEs come with, and MUCH MUCH better than the junk little artbooks other games include.

      • [Deactivated] on 09/06/2022 - 19:25

        Well it could've been hard cover like they're getting in the US for starters.

        • cyrax83 on 09/06/2022 - 20:45

          I'm not sure what the US got but this looks a lame small paperback book. I guess it's cheaper for them to ship over garbage to our region than heavier hard covers.

            +1

            @cyrax83: It's a decent sized artbook (~A4 from the pictures), same as the US, but yeah the soft cover feels much cheaper than a hard cover.

            Also no soundtrack, it's the worst Switch Xenoblade collectors edition so far.

      maybe they just want to save costs… its easier to give the game and collectables separately so that they don't need to spend time packing it. by how much savings? Idk. bean counters gunna bean count.

    • HolyFosh on 09/06/2022 - 13:51

      It's cause they bumped Xenoblade 3's release date ahead a few months earlier this year.

    • Dunan on 09/06/2022 - 14:54

      Part of it is because July 29 wasn't the original release date of the game, it was meant to be several months later.

  • mangobango on 09/06/2022 - 13:32

    Would've been nice to include a soundtrack or something as well.

    Still nabbed it anyway because I love the series.

    On the US store it apparently crashed and sold out quick. Grabbed this one as soon as it popped up on the AU store.

    • ce5himm on 09/06/2022 - 14:18

      Same, I was surprised that it is still available to order. Maybe we have less xb fans here. Or less population anyway.

        Just because I don't post that doesn't mean I'm not a bargain hunter. Im just lazy and selfish to post a bargain I find myself. A true bargain leaps out of the screen and people purchase it even if they don't need it because the price is so good.

        This post doesn't do that.

      I'm a game collector, this most likely will be very rare to purchase at RRP in future.

      Feel free to check how much Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and Chronicles 2 Torna normal edition cost on ebay, fb market place, gumtree etc.

      Same fundamentals apply with the price of graphics cards within the past couple of years, it's supply and demand.

      The RRP is the deal.

      • themadman on 09/06/2022 - 16:24

        Out of curiosity, how do you know the same will happen for this game? Not disagreeing, just genuinely curious.

        I've got physical copies of DE, 2 and Torna, so I know about the rarity. Is that likely to be an ongoing thing though?

        • [Deactivated] on 09/06/2022 - 16:32

          Watch as they print 100x the CE's this time around and "collectors" ie scalpers start crying. Already confirmed that more SE copies of the game will be made available in the US.

          • ce5himm on 09/06/2022 - 17:00

            @[Deactivated]: That's because US website was dead, not they are going to print more because of the demand.

            • themadman on 09/06/2022 - 17:53

              @ce5himm: Not sure what the website has to do with it, but are you implying that the prices for 2 & Torna were due to shortages? In which case, adequate supply this time around would pretty much nullify that…?

              • ce5himm on 10/06/2022 - 09:15
                +1

                @themadman: Because the website was crashed like 10 mins after live, people were unable to place order or having error. Nintendo tried to fix it, maybe it took longer than their expectations, and decide to reopen in a later time. They do have stock left.
                For 2 and torna, yes, they didn't expect this kind of success, they didn't print enough. It's not about supply, they just decide that they won't reprint these games. Pushing people to buy digital. (Make more profit)
                Of course all the collector/special edition is another story.
                Look at the contents of 3's collector edition, way less collectable than the 2, I don't personally expect this will copy the story of 2 collector edition. But it's the lowest to buy for sure.

        • zonra on 09/06/2022 - 16:34

          Put it this way, it’s hard to say whether this will appreciate in price enough to be a worthwhile “investment”. But if you ever want this for your own collection, this is likely the cheapest price you’re gonna pay.
          So in that sense, I see the value of this post.

          • themadman on 09/06/2022 - 17:13

            @zonra: Oh yeah, totally agree. Its not a deal per se, but the cheapest you're ever going to see it is before release.

      I don't know about the type, but everything I've bought from the Nintendo Store has been very well packed.

      The controllers I got came in a box, with an outer plain cardboard box around it, with cardboard inserts to hold the inner box in place. Then two layers of bubble wrap taped around it then the third outer box.

      Agreed. Tales of Arise and other related games were a really good, but the story failed to hit the emotional notes that XC1, XC2 and (oh god) Torna did.

        The Fire Emblem 30th Anniversary Edition was pretty darn cool, it was really too bad there was no physical game. Anything with their own controllers, some with included amiibos were also pretty nice.

        It's hard to point out good value or unique limited editions nowadays, this one is certainly bare minimum though.
