Gamecube Component Cables

[CaptainZombie]

I can't believe that today I walked into my local Gamestop and picked up the ULTRA RARE official Nintendo brand component cables for the Gamecube. They were $4.99 and after my discount I think I paid $4.50.

I have a dilema. Do I pickup a used Cube for $40-$50 or do I throw these suckers on ebay and make anywhere from $70-$100 on these since that's the going rate? Then I was thinking if I wait till the Wii comes out than I could play those Cube games that I want to check out.

I figure since I'm getting the DS Lite next month, I'm geared towards selling these and make a profit.

I have 5 more Gamestops and EB's within driving distance that I'm going to hitup during the weekend to see if I could find some more component cables for the Cube, time to make some $$$$$$.

This is a stupid post, but figured I'd share.

Are they still going for that much on Ebay? I got mine of there for 7 bucks a year or 2 ago.

Ever since Nintendo removed the digital port on the newer models of the Cube 2 years ago and they stopped selling these cables almost 2 years ago, people can't find these so they will pay an arm and a leg.

Amazing, I should sell mine now. My Cube never gets played anyway.

I think those cables are going up on ebay tonight after seeing $100. I know I won't get $100, but if I even get $75 that helps pay for the DS Lite.

I figure since I'm getting a Wii, I could buy the games I want to play on that.
