Limited Edition

Are you into collecting special edition soundtracks?I have collected rare coins in the past, but have recently turned to soundtracks. I like collecting physical copies not only because they are increasing in value, but because I get the CD and the booklet. I will never have to worry about low quality music for that album.

I'm sure you have heard about the new Interstellar: Illuminated Star Projection Edition. People recently received their shipments of this special edition box set from MyPlay (http://www.myplaydirect.com/interstellar-soundtrack#) for $39.99. Obviously, some decided to purchase multiple copies at once. I was browsing eBay and encountered the following two listings: 

Here is the first listing (LINK). As of this writing, the bids have raised the price to $61. This guy has almost doubled his money! Now take a look at the next listing. 



















This is one of the craziest things I have encountered on eBay (LINK). The seller purchased this 
product for $39.99, but obviously, the buyers don't know that. This is insanity! Over 65 bids and this guy has made (exactly) 8.375 times the money he paid! Either the buyer just has some extra eBay/PayPal gift cards and cash laying around his house, he doesn't trust MyPlay, he wants a more reliable/faster delivery, or he is just insane...



















In conclusion, I suggest that before you purchase and/or bid on something, look into it first.
