Outrunners on Megadrive - why so pricey???

What it is, see, is I've started a little OutRun collection and I'd quite like to have a copy of MD Outrunners to add to it... but not for those feckin' prices.
There's someone selling the cartridge alone for £69.99. Each time it comes to within a few days of the auction ending, I send him an offer of £40 and he refuses. 3 times now it's been listed and not once has he had a single bidder (and for all I know he might've listed it many times more before this). You'da thunk, he might've got the message by now, after 3 listings and no bids, that he's overpriced it a tad...

Tempting PBJ, tempting... I'd been toying with the idea of hitting you up for a DIY one. I might just keep trying to wear this guy down on eBay for a bit longer...

What a great idea for a collection! I've toyed with doing a Crazy Taxi collection but I have nowhere to put such a big cab 😄
pbj:
You can get a bootleg cart in a bootleg case for about $10 shipped from China.
I guarantee nobody will know the difference and your collection will continue to peel as many panties off as it currently does.

Don't think that would be humanly possible 8)
Where can I get the bootleg Chinese stuff from? Is this like Wish and Etsy territory?

Can normally get them on eBay. Most of the upfront guys will say it's a copy. Many will have repro cases too. I bought a repro case for my genuine Alien Soldier cart.
MrThunderwing:
Hrrrm, I wonder if it's a regional thing then, I'm only seeing all the super expensive stuff (apart from a single repro cover). I might have to have a mess around with search filters and see if I can widen the search.
