Why do people have that much scratch to drop on games?  That is insane.  I guess if I win the lottery I might, but that's the only way.

Is it just me or is it weird that a few months ago this game wasn't even known to exist and now 2 have popped up? not saying these are fakes or anything just weird how things work out sometimes.

Well I believe one copy has been known about for a few years (the one that just sold).  The other one seems more suspicious because I think it showed up around the time the other seller decided to sell their copy.  The original programmer also said that he has around 100 copies somewhere in storage.

i wonder is they fined 50 or all 100 copy's of this game will the price go down to $500  to 2k??

Don't worry, reproductions are being sold by the bid winner right now, and I'd say that the binary will be available in a week or 2.
