I normally wouldn't buy from Ebay either but I got it into my head that I should look for a copy of Terracide (another interesting game that never caught on in the USA) that is complete in the box since prior to buying this all I had was my original (very beaten) CD from the 90's.
I don't know how I had so many of these games as a kid but it seems most of the games I really loved are pretty obscure and not at all common to find in the USA for a decent price. (games such as: Earth 2140, Vangers, Terracide, Incoming, Moto Racer, POD, 7 Kingdoms : Ancient Adversaries, and WarBirds)
So when I saw a boxed copy for sale in the USA for 15$ I jumped on it. 🤣 Perhaps I should have waited but I really think if I had let it go I might not have gotten a copy.
SimCity 2000 CD Edition is kind of the same thing, it's the version I had as a kid and it seems to be harder to find complete in box than any of the other versions. So I got sick of waiting and just bought it after I realized I had lost my original disc. (I found it the day before the package arrived. 🤣)
Besides, it's been pretty slim pickings lately. 😒 I hope the ebay people haven't started really raiding the games, I used to see cool stuff there from time to time.
