Guess when Jag prices and interest went up? After the Angry Nerd did his Jaguar videos (2-3 years ago?)... 
Hundreds of THOUSANDS of youngsters saw his vids, most of them knew jack nothing about the Jag and were all of a sudden interested. I noticed prices have steadily gone up bit by bit since then. The Jag CD in particular. 4 years ago you could get a working one for $100. Now a working one goes for about $200 total. Mint In the box with extra stuff approaching 300 (atleast 250)... Jag cart system 4 years ago maybe 30, now its atleast 50 or 60 for bare bones system etc.

I have no agenda, I am simply speaking the truth. As a long time Jaguar fan, collector, and ebay buyer and seller I know EXACTLY what Jag stuff is worth. I base my prices off of completed listings (what people have actually paid) and also on current listings. I try to be fairly competitive with my prices and I have the best offer option for every single friggen one of my auctions... Braindead 13 and memory tracks are far from common Jaguar items...
It seems YOU are the one with the agenda, attacking me for no reason? I called the 2 guys lowballers who said a Jag system package is worth $20-30 because its the truth! Out of lets say 20 Jaguar system bundles on ebay, maybe 1 of those bundles will have sold for minimum $40 total, on average more like 60-90, even over 100. This is what people are paying. It has nothing to do with me ripping anyone off. I have paid thousands of dollars for Jaguar stuff over the years, I have the right to resell whatever the hell I want for whatever price I want!
Keep talking shit, I will keep being one of the best ebay video game sellers. Check my feedback kevincal20 on ebay... lots of happy buyers. I ship faster than most anyone on ebay probably. and I package like a collector cus I am a collector. I think its funny your attack got like 9 thumbs up or whatever LOL I have noticed a lot of people who hate me are subscribed to me and love the opportunity to support another hater of mine LMAO...

Look it is supply Vs Demand, if E-Bay has 20-30 people selling a Jag in the $30 price Range then you are going to have a hard time selling yours bare bones no game, on the other hand looking on E-Bay if their are very few selling at the moment you may get lucky, just start low and let the bidding begin, their are very few places to get a Jag, it is either E-Bay, or a couple of online shops(all of witch sell the Jag in the $100 range)so saying that $50 for a used one is out of line to keep me from searching for something that hasn't been made in 15 years, same on BrainDead 13, so what if it sold for $5 5 years ago, I want it now and if the cheapest I can find it is $50 then I will have to pay that or go without....years ago I could of got Astroids and ET outside of KayBee Toys in a box marked Take 1, Take 1 Free!!!, they couldn't stomake tossing them, but few were taking atvantage of them since nobody had a working 2600....now a days I could probably get $15 a cart, ("one mans junk is anothers Treasure")
Great comment.
I love when people make perfect sense like you do, unlike that guy attacking me "the sword"...ls650, on Thu Aug 18, 2011 10:47 AM, said:

You need to stop this. There appears to be this agenda with you of attempting to pump up the perceived value of Jaguar items for your own gain. .... Jaguars are not yet as valuable as you keep saying, Jaguar bare console with 2 games $29.99 eBay Auction -- Item Number: 320744315184
. And another base console that sold for $40: eBay Auction -- Item Number: 270795803857
. As an alert to new people interested in buying Jaguar, you do not have to pay extravagant prices for Jaguar stuff, not yet.
The second auction is a console with those items - but no carts. It has also gone unused for 10 years, and is sold "as is" with no guarantees it works! If you want to pick up a couple of common games to pay, those will again be at least $10 a piece plus shipping.
I don't know if kevincal has an 'agenda' but you really will need to pay in the $50-$60 range to get a working system with a couple of commons.
No agenda here other than being a smart ebayer! lol... Maybe I should be a stupid ebayer and list my auctions vaguely and starting at a dollar so I can lose my ass on everything I sell! Then maybe guys like "The sword" wont hate me so much? LOL. But since I have a house payment and bills I think I would not rather lose money on ebay, thanks!
And yes you are right the examples he uses are weak at best.

Personally I'm not into the Jaguar so I can watch the value of my collection grow, in fact I wish that prices would stay steady and low so that more people would be willing to give the Jaguar a try. It already has a bad enough reputation, so hyping it and farcically trying to give the appearance of higher rarity than is the case to increase prices will only shy people away from the machine. The fact is that you can get a Jaguar bare console for much less than $60 if you just have a bit of patience.
I called 2 people lowballers not everyone
Thats pretty minor compared to the full on attack against me youve taken on... What the hell did I do to you? lol... Again, I base my pricing off of what people pay, its not my fault Jaguar stuff has gone up in value. That is just the way it is! By the way, where the hell in this thread before you attacked me, did you see me mention I sell on ebay? You can get a Jag for much less than 60 but it might take a long time, its not an accurate average price of what the system sells for. (below 60)For the jaguar system, power and tv cables, controller, game, all in working condition, the average price people pay total is something like $70-100. This is what people are paying these days, dont blame me. again, like I said, its the angry video game nerd that caused the uptick in Jaguar interest. No agenda of mine.
