Rare PlayStation Home goodies go for big bucks
GameZine did some snooping around eBay recently, and found some of the more rare PlayStation Home items were going for a surprising amount of money. Two examples were presented in an InFamous reaper costume that sold for $30 (that's like 18 Slurpees) and a Killzone 2 Helghast outfit that went for -- you may want to brace your hindquarters for this one -- a whopping $66. That is more than the frakkin' game!
So, Joystiq has come up with a plan:
So, Joystiq has come up with a plan:
- Create a Joystiq-themed Home space (there may be some minor kidnapping of designers involved, but we'll flesh that out later)
- Make sure it is the only one in existence
- ???
- Profit

A space where you have to find at least 100 Dead Space Girl's Faces. Pretty please.

Damn, I should of sold that Killzone 2 Helghast outfit I got from Amazon instead of giving it away!

I'm going to pimp that sh1t out next time I get some Home promo codes.
The Helghast outfit is awesome though. Just not sure if it's worth $66 awesome.

Dang 66 dollars.

I'm betting there is going to be an influx of these items posting on eBay really soon.

I got my hands on a few reaper codes and sold them myself, nearly 30 euros each last week. I'm not surprised that people buy them after having played WoW where people pay nearly $1,000 for a damn mount card.

People are paying that much for Killzone 2 Home outfits? I wonder if they know that the codes have expired.

i'd stay clear of a joystiq space in home. there'd be numerous false females. have you seen the type of attention a ps3 article attracts on the joystiq main page?

I have sold houses for Ultima Online on eBay in the distant past (for bigger dollars than this). There is always a market for virtual crap.
I mess around in Home occasionally, but don't feel like part of the community there really, because I haven't really dedicated myself to it.
wolverine @ Jul 2nd 2009 10:01AM
yeah, please stop with the stupid face on everything. it was stupid yesterday, and it's stupid today.
it's like somebody just found out about photoshop and thinks it's the greatest thing ever. PLEASE STOP ALREADY

I think the girl in almost every post is getting old. Kinda not very professional. Its something id expect to see from a small time fan-made blog, not ablog thats supposed to be 'professional".
