There comes a time when a hardcore fan must ask the value of a mint condition, piece of history which takes one back to a happier time. Apparently, if that piece of history is a factory-sealed copy of Chrono Trigger, then it is worth $540. A recent eBay auction by nyescott is selling a perfect, brand new copy of the title.
The price on Chrono Trigger may rise even higher, as the auction still has 18 hours left. It ends February 3, 2008, at which time one lucky fan will be the winner of this priceless game. So far there have been 36 bids on the game, which originally started with an opening price of $25.
Preview pictures of the game in question reveal an immaculate copy. It looks absolutely perfect. The box art doesn’t even seem to be fading. If someone is a true rpg fan and lover of this title, this could be quite an investment. Of course you could never actually open it and play it – that’s what the Playstation remake of Chrono Trigger is for.

The auction ended at a total of $ 1,217.00!!
I'd say all those years of tender care have been worth it. *drools*
Wow! You're right, that game was definitely worth taking care of and holding on to.
But who would really pay so much for a single game?
Those few eccentric collectors out there I guess. The most I would pay…would probably be like 200-300 dollars. That's just me though.
