That's why I included it in the blown-up PAL seal that I cropped.

EDIT: And thanks for the guide, Dain.

User is offline Profile 		I think this is a great idea to illustrate the differences, but I personally disagree with the use of any fixed value as we all know how easily prices fluctuate.  We've seen all kinds of forces shift the market price of certain games and considering that all PAL SEs that were listed on the European eBays have been bought, I think the price will remain inflated for a while to come.  Sure, lots of resellers are buying with the aim to make a profit, but it wouldn't surprise me if there's plenty of new interest in SE from casual gamers and collectors as well.
