I am an orange mist amongst a sea of blue, so my flames may stand out and represent all those who trully believe in this great sacriment of Bungie history, let my story be told as the only legendary still standing even after I fall Just as my comrades did so graciously to fight for the true loyal.
If you have legendary, would you stand by my side and go forth into a sea blue and demise as my brothers fighting for those who are trully loyal to Bungie?

I have an unopened copy of Halo CE and I decide to bring it in to gamers today (not gamestop because they're terrible) but anyways I asked how much and he said 2 dollars... What's up with this? They're selling a 35 dollar used copy of anniversary but will only give 2 dollars for the original un opened 2001 version of the game that made the franchise one of the most successful games so far. People have no concept of value anymore, you probably couldn't get 10 dollars for a signed copy of the original Mario game.

Stop banning me please.

Then don't buy old games on ebay and try to re sell them. Lesson learned.

Ask them if they want to 1 v 1 you.

Well, here we are. I guess that it was destined to come to this.

You're trying to cash in on collectible value from a reseller/retailer? They don't care about the collectible/curio value of a case/disk, just what they can sell it for used.

Didn't buy it from eBay, my father got it as a Christmas present and no joke, lost it.So he bought another one and we found the lost copy 4 years ago when we were cleaning the house. I'll probably just keep all my halo games and collectibles until I really need money and sell it all to other collectors who value it as much as I do. I'm sure the whole series of halo games, books, collectors editions, and every console they were played on will be worth something once Halo is long gone.

Octavia is best pony.

Because every person born before 2001 and their grandmother had a copy of Halo CE. It's really, really common and there's practically no demand for it.

<(-_-)> Teh mokey is not amused

I'd keep it a few more years and perhaps sell it on ebay around the time halo 6 comes out.

OP, I hate to break it to you, but Combat Evolved has aged. Beyond the hero-worship it gets from a certain section of this fanbase, it's seen as incredibly dated and sub-par in every way. There is no way any retailer will be able to sell that copy. It belongs to the last console generation, for crying out loud.

Oh, and it's nowhere near rare enough to warrant the high price tag ore limited games might attract.
