So, maybe I'm a boob, but I gave him the benefit of the doubt. Maybe he is just incompetent, I should offer assistance. So I shot him a message, letting him know that this game is still in print, and sent him a link to the Filsinger Shop listing. I suggested he "reconsider his listing price". S.O.B. raised his list price from $200 to $265, and added a comment that "Due to extremely high demand, our price is firm." I have reconsidered my first impression; guy's a scumbag. Prick done the same to me. I messaged him during the week. It was $65 and I told him it's not rare it's still in print and sent him a link. He raised it to $200 said he's had interest from people about the game and that he has ordered more sets to sell. People like him really ruin things for other people. I would understand if cards were signed by a few wrestlers or something but he's just ripping people off

Price gouging is getting more common these days. The local bike shop said they'd sell me a used bike for $150 before lockdown. Now? $500!That's right: FIVE HUNDRED for a used bike. An increase of over 200%. Walmart sells new ones for $120 (when they are in stock). Another example: Paperback novels were $1.50 when I was in high school. Now? $25! See? -- www.barnesandnoble.com/w/star-trek-mirror-universe-rise-like-lions-david-mack/1109329097?ean=9781501107122That price shocked me because new video games have been only $60 for the last TEN years or so! I'm not about to pay $25 for a book I will read just one time and not be able to re-sell. Oh well. smh. Todd C WTIC

VIDEO GAMES are only 60 now??? Where do you go for games, I see Madden is 99.99 or 59.99 with no options.
I joke, but seriously most games also make you buy a 39.99 season pass to be able to play or finish the game now a days. I wait now for at least two years to pick something up. I just got Fallout 4 for ten bucks, might not even been worth 10

Managed to pick the base game and first 3 expansions up for around £10 Now they removed all that content and the new expansions are around £30 to £40 PLUS you need to buy seasons to unlock the story parts of the expansions. Absolute con that companies can get away with it. Miss the days when you could buy a game and it was all on disc... Or cartridges lol

Recently there has been a bunch of people who sell individual cards from different wwe board games (not talking raw deal). Like legitimately individual cards from different games and selling them as Rare and Out of print trading cards.
I don’t want to give this guy any ideas but i wouldn’t be surprised if he broke up the set and started selling the cards individually for $50 each saying they are rare.

It’s up to $399 now. I’m now thinking it’s someone on this board.

Looks like you can write a product review for the game. Sure would be a shame is people reviewed the game saying they're glad they bought it from the Filsinger Games Website for $15 this week. And it came with all the pieces.

I just did that. Used the review function to say it's still being produced by Filsinger Games.

I did too. $10 says once they are posted he adds "Don't believe the reviews! This is rare!" to his description.
