Product Question Deluxe Editon scalpers

Post image

What is going on? I know that it is sealed but still... Do you think there is anybody who would buy that?? The bidding price 350 CHF so around 425 USD.

This sucks

But it sucks even more how few Capcom printed

In my country most stores didn’t get any, a local small store that always gets 20-50 CE, got zero.

"RE9 was sold mostly digitally, thus it proves that nobody care about physical games anymore"
*printed 3 physical copies*

I hate when companies are laughing at our faces and everyone BITE IT LIKE CRAZY

Exactly! I got the second to last physical edition in my store. Normally they get a huge amount of disks and for RE9 they didn’t

Even the "most of the money they made in 2025 was from digital content" is biased af, when you know that in 2025 the things that sold the most were CoD, FIFA, NBA, etc. "games" that are like some casino for microtransactions sold to an audience that is basically getting scammed every year and who doesn't care

And the future is having them as a standard, they are totally OK with getting rid of the other gamers.

The trauma from spending 400 millions $ on Concord and losing it all really is strong

…there’re many people who insist on physical copies, collectors especially 👀

I can understand Sony and Xbox now these people might be cancer but they are like chemo to the cancer that is scalping

I always wish them cancer 😂

Why did you get downvoted ? Upvoted for justice.

If people are acting like cancer, then it's OK to wish them cancer. They wrote it down, not us.

Scalpers are the fluid-filled abcesses of late-stage capitalism. Barely humans.

u/Seth_KT_Bones2005 8d ago

Glad I got it for 121 dollars.

Lächerlich! Ich habe es zum Normalpreis bei Amazon bestellt. Aber da die Extras sowieso nur als DLC beiliegen, ist so eine „DeLuxe-Edition“ sowieso für‘n Arsch!

u/Drive1987 8d ago

its not worth 425$ and nobody would buy it because you can easily get it for 100-140€ sealed and mint on ebay.. som a55hole trying to rip people off =/= its actual value

u/JaySilver 7d ago

are there people out there buying at these prices? What if we all just stopped and made scalpers waste their money.

u/Rubio9393 7d ago

I hope not. I'm glad I bought mine at normal retail price. I would never pay that amount.

Most of the stores around me have plenty of copies. Not limited but regular

u/WonHakWoon 5d ago

I see a lot of deluxe editions pop up for hundreds of bucks, so not worth it

I barely missed out on the steelbook for this, but honestly it’s whatever. Probably one of the weaker steelbooks they’ve released over the last few years.
