Wow... Everything already has quite a few bids and it's not even close to being over yet... there go my hopes and dreams. (Not that I had an extra $90 to spend on a NiGHTS plush, anyway. That's just crazy!)

$93 on the NiGHTS plush...jesus!

Time for me to get bidding on some of these and worry about payment later...

NiGHTS usually goes for around $275. Even though I love NiGHTS, he's just not worth that kind of money. Especially the flying pose, I don't like it. He looks more like he's dancing than flying.
I bet Reala will go for $150-$200
Elliot and Claris will get to around $100
and Nightopian will only get 1 bid, if that.

Well apparently he was worth $1500 to me, though I don't have a plushie to show for my valiant efforts...>_>

I'm going to get working on some analytics (graphs, etc) that track their prices over the course of the 7-day auction. I'll release them as PDFs once the auctions are complete and I've had a chance to format everything all pretty like. To prevent graph clutter I'll probably group them by type of item (poster/promo material, game, CD, plush, other merch)

Also, if people know the MSRPs of any of these (save for UFO catcher plushies, posters, etc) shout them out so I can add those to the reports.

There is no MSRP for the UFO plushies or posters since they are promo items and were never intended for retail sale.

Yeeees, the plushies were all from UFO machines. It's hard to gauge what RRP is because I've never actually seen any of them 'sold' firsthand anywhere. Well apart from some of the newer t-shirts on SEGA before their store closed. Pre 07 its very hard to say D:


edit- oh and you can bet that Reala will go for more than NiGHTS. He always does. Because he rolls like that yo.

all common sense and logic dictates not to go near those plushies as they're not worth the money...so what compells me to get them so...

why does NiGHTS merch have to be so goddamn rare and expensive ;) although those prices are still fairly cheap!

I thought it might not be too late to get to know some of you before all my NiGHTS merch (hopefully) ends up living with you? If anyone wants things made easier, I have detailed scans/pics/etc of all the stuff there, and the few things I saved - if it's not up on my site, it's on this computer somewhere. (Content raid ASAP - I like to share, and my website will be gone eventually.)

And Travis, I have MSRPs for the bulk of everything (sans the promo items), if you want me to make a list.

And since I'm a merchandise junkie, have any of you shopped at Yahoo Japan Auctions? If you guys love NiGHTS, and rare merchandise, this is really the only destination you need. Even by using a deputy service, you'll literally save hundreds of dollars, and find stuff that doesn't even pop up on eBay.

For instance, another copy of the sheet music book has been floating around for a while. Even though that's about $170, it's there, for sale, and believe me... there's virtually no competition on YJA. I got my piano book for $40, and no one else bid on it. Same thing happened when I won an auction for the UFO dolls of Reala, Elliot, and the Pian for $50. When I was broke, I cried in outrage as a hands-down NiGHTS UFO doll went for roughly $20. Strangely enough, the only things that really get heated are the DREAMS DREAMS singles and the Satakore version of the original NiGHTS game.

Anyway, time for me to get some sleep... x_x

Less than a day to go on everything...

Looking through my eBay bid history...I'm going to fork out a pretty penny once this is over if I'm not outbid at the last second on anything!
ALSO: Bidding on (and currently winning) all the soundtrack CDs except for the mini-CD sampler. I'm absolutely ripping them to a lossless format if I win, so we got something more for the site. I know there's a lot up already, but I'm a quality snob :P

EDIT: Welcome Dreams! It's sad that you have to part with your NiGHTS merch, but rest assured they're all going into good hands with members from the forums here. The Yahoo Japan auctions thing is interesting; I'll have to take a look into that for some other things I've had my eye on. If only I could read japanese...

daww pian's not gettin any love bids D: if no-one else is biddin on him, i shall buy him and love him, because i'm clearly unaware that they're inanimate objects that dont need love. it's good that there's a good few minutes spacing between the items, it means that people bidding on multiple things can quickly jump to the next item :)

First, thank you for giving us the chance to bid on the things we love, even if you have to let them go. Glad to see you here and hope you stick around for a while!

Second, I don't think we would have gotten the scans for the sheet music book from Malan if you hadn't put it up for auction, so just by doing that, you've already done many of us a great service. It's funny how things don't come to light until the right circumstances.

Third: $170?!? Oh man, that's a good chunk of the old moola...

Wah, Dreams! I's good to have you here! I will do my best to spend as much money on you as possible! And thank you for telling us about yahoo... teach me how to use it properly sometime! I already found another copy of the perfect album (Which ends in 30 mins T_T) but my grasp of japanese is still elementary, so... ^^;
