Philips CD-i Retro Market

Is it just me or does the market for CD-i as a retrogaming system seem to be gaining credibility with increasing value for selected titles and systems?

Could be that prices are going up again as more new collectors enter the market. I would say there was one period of 'high' prices when a lot(?) of people where looking to complete there collections and then a price-drop when these people had all the titles they wanted. And now there seems to be more interest so there could be new people starting to collect.

Yes with auctions like that!!

Is The Last Bounty Hunter really worth $99.99, for that amount shipping should be free. Think I picked up my version of this game for around £8 a few years back 8)

I'd only shell out that amount for a perfect condition Radiant Silvergun or Panzer Dragoon Saga Boxset in terns of retro games.

Well, Last Bounty Hunter is pretty rare, but it's not worth 100 dollar, IMO.

It's indeed true the 1997/1998 releases are all rare, and rather expensive (with exceptions!)

Hmm, how many times has that thing been relisted? I try to start all the auctions for stuff I sell at 1 Euro, unfortunately this doesn't always work (my goal usually is to get rid of those items). Unfortunately this didn't work last time :).
