$8,000!

Maybe this 50th Anniversary for Dr Who has pushed prices up...into another galaxy and all the way to Galifrey  :D

Don't be so harsh guys, as per the ad it's a Baileys Dr Who, so like the inverted Jenny postage stamp it will always command a premium price!  :lol

One could be forgiven for thinking that maybe the seller didn't research the title before listing.... Bailey might have given that one away

Dr Who is a cool game, used to play this title a lot back in the day on site, and being a fan of the show i found it a lot of fun.
I just finished repairing one for a local client, which gave me the opportunity to relive my past a bit  *%*

Its one of several DMD titles i'd like to own, but not for $8000  *.* *.*

Most likely trying to piggyback off the Dr Who 50th Anniversary mini hype/angle (23 Nov '63), much like the $8000 WCS that sold at auction a few years ago when Australia actually made it past the first round of the World Cup.

Someone actually paid 8k for a wcs?
Wow!
 $$(
Dr who is a great game for sure but 8k is mental  but hey it's only about 5.5k over-priced!
 :lol
