   Why are all my old consoles suddenly worth >£50 each on ebay? When did old consoles become so valuable?

     @scoot It goes through phases. About ten years ago was a pretty high point for NES, SNES, etc...

     @scribus Oh okay, I wasn't sure because when I got all mine they were no more than about £10 or so

     @scoot Yeah, about then I got my first used TurboGrafx at a sizeable-but-not-new price and when I picked another one up a year or so ago it was freaky cheap, comparitively. Guess it's moving back up again, though....

     @scribus I hope it goes back down so I can also get a TurboGrafx, but I also hope it goes up so I can sell my spare SNES's and such for a lot

     @scoot Maybe you'll luck out and the individual segments of the market will align for you. #knockwood
