Price/Rarity Check: Final Fantasy XI BETA - PC
« on: April 04, 2011, 09:02:11 pm »
Here is something I got a GameStop manager conferance many years ago. It's a sealed copy of Final Fantasy XI BETA for PC. I've done a bit of research and haven't really seen any others out there. Has anyone ever seen this before? I know it'll be hard to place a value on it but it's a unique item so I thought I'd share.

I know I've only ever seen this at your place. Any searched I've done haven't turned up anything either.

I've never seen this either, and all the searching I did only found me a sealed copy of the PS2 beta, which I didn't find a price for either (it was a random post in a forum).
Not sure how much of a market there would be for this though, despite it being a fairly unique item. Finding a proper value for it would be really hard since there's really nothing to compare it to.

Dear god I want that :o

I've actually never seen one like it before. It's sealed you say? What condition is it in? Top left corner, what's going on there?
I've only found a sealed PS2 copy like above with no price. A few have sold on Ebay in 2007 it seems but those aren't archived so no chance of getting the price.

It's sealed but the box does have a few dings, as you can see in the photo. I'll try to take a better pic tonight and post it. I'll gladly accept offers on it.

Oh man... This post reminded me that I totally had the PS2 beta, but after getting frustrated with trying to play that game on a dial-up connection, I can see my 12-year old self tossing it in the garbage...  Argh.

I played that game on Dail-Up every night.... until the 1st major patch. Then I had to quit until I could talk the folks into high speed and how it was the "wave of the future". Bullshit sales pitch, only took a month to pull off then it was years of FFXI after that.... until WoW stole my soul.
