Yeah, the store selling it LOVES overcharging. Before Disgaea got it's Greatest Hits release they were trying to charge 100 dollars for their last few copies of it. Then the GH landed and was being sold for 20 bucks so... yeah, they had to bring the price back down to something sane for a bit. Although they're charging 50ish for it now.
In the past I also saw them trying to sell things like FF1 for close to 100 bucks (it had a box! wow :P likely no instruction manual tho) and Chrono Trigger on the SNES for 150ish. (No box for that one. cartridge only.)
I'm probably going to look into the copies of the Atelier series I saw at a different store downtown. Used, but it's priced a bit more like a used game, so it'll depend on if it has a manual or not. Their copy of Atelier 3 that they had didn't have one unfortunately but I'll check out 1 and 2.
