Where to find a decently priced copy?

[Gwenfloor]

This is the only Silent Hill Game (Silent Hill 1) that I do not have, apart from Origins.
I looked on Amazon, and it was priced at 280 US dollars! This seems awfully expensive, but if it is the lowest price out there, then I guess I cannot complain...
Otherwise, if it is not, look at my topic title for my question.

$280 is out of control. I'm sure you've checked your local EBgames/Gamestop. Do a search and call some of them that are further away from you to see if they have a copy in stock.

Not in stock, so check everyday. But it hasn't been in stock for a while now.

What would a more acceptable price be?

I got mine in used, but pristine, condition for $10.

I see them a lot for 20-30 USD. Never pay more than that.

I currently have 2 copies (both are scratched in different places, so I have to alternate disks to play the game straight through), and I got them at Game Crazy for about $10 each, $14 max.

Before the movie came out and the series rose in popularity, they were for sale in the $15 - $20 range. It depends on how much you value getting your hands on it for. I'd say a fair price is between $20-$35.

Is Game Crazy a credible online store? I only buy from online stores that I know I can trust.

Here!

It's already used, and is in auction on eBay, it ends up on five days, so if you are interested hurry up and go there.

Oh...my...God... only around $8 USD!!
I already spent all my Christmas money, so I need to find some way to convince my dad to get this.

Oh man, I remember going into the game shops in malls and in the next town over here, and Silent Hill would always just be chillin with the other PSX games at a beautiful price of $10 - sometimes even less.
I'll tell you one thing though, guys; once I was in this superduper retro game store a few months back, and for the fuck of it I asked if they had Silent Hill on them. And yes they did. Unopened. Cellophane-wrapped. Mint condition. I wasn't aware such a thing even existed anymore. o_o
And of course it was like, $100, so I obviously didn't snag it.

I have two copies & both work fine. I really ought to sell one. . . .

[The 8th Aspect]

I have a perfect copy and an unopened copy. PM me if you're interested.

Go to a carboot you can pick one up for about £3. If that's not your thing then go to Gamestation where you can pick up a preowned copy for no more than £10.

HI!
I myself was looking for SH1 guidebook. I found some online but it was pretty expensive. So i went to a site (I think it was game revolution or something like that) & found the online version of the guide. I know this sounds crazy but I highlighted all of it, copied it to microsoft word thingy, deleted a whole bunch of crap, then printed it. Now I have nothing better to do with life so I deleted a whooole bunch of crap, cut to the point, and printed out about 12 pages. But then again, that doesn't include some puzzle info cause i already had that printed out. But if you're really desperate and, like me, broke, then go for it.

[FatalFrame]

gamewinners is another good spot for online guides. I bought my copy at Gamestop for $10.00, the book is gone but the game is great. I think they're not really selling PS1 games anymore though.

[JotaDe]

I found a used one at GameStop but it didn't have a jewel case. So they sold it to me for $1 or $2.
Would like to have one with the case though...

I looked on Amazon, and it was priced at 280 US dollars!

$280 is ridiculous, even for Amazon. When I had to replace my copy (which I'd lent out), I bought an unopened, untouched one from Amazon.com for $40 (I think). It could have been $50, but that's still a hell of a lot better than $280. I don't think you looked at all of the options on the site.

Then again, you can always try buying a cheap used one at e-bay or something of that sort. You might luck out and find that rare-as-hell copy at a local game shop, too. I myself would rather pay extra for one that isn't used, but not $280. I'm not very keen on buying used discs online. At real game stores, yes.

For all I know, you could've already bought the $8 one, but there's my input.

Keep looking around on ebay, your bound to find one or you could go to vintagetagspot.com and see there.

I once found a copy of Silent Hill 1 at a yard sale for $2 AFTER the movie came out. Here's the kicker, it was hosted by a Christian Church!!!! Out of all the possible places to get a copy of it, it just had to be in a church!
