Forum:Collector's Edition Price

So being the ME junkie that I've become, I considered buying the limited collector's editions of Mass Effect 1&2. I have the the ME3 collector's edition on reserve and thought it would be cool to have all three. I checked Amazon and Ebay and was surprised to find out that the ME1CE was selling for $600-$2500! Needless to say there were no current bids on any of them. I love the Mass Effect universe but dropping that much on a video game just doesn't seem right. I guess you could say that you could sell it some day, but are video games even considered a good investment in that regard? Would you spend that much for rare a collectable video game?
