LittleBigPlanet Copies Fetching Up To $250 On eBay

We knew it was bound to happen. Unscrupulous types are already taking advantage of global recall imposed on PlayStation 3 title LittleBigPlanet for unintentional references to the holy text of the Qu’ran. With less than a week to go before the game’s revised release date of October 27, auctioneers are selling copies on eBay for up to $250, which is more than triple the game’s mark-up price. And that’s not factoring in shipping!
Personally, I’d wait. There’s no shortage of AAA caliber titles this month, so why lump down all this cash for a game that’s only a week away? Even for collector types, there is not much value here, as Media Molecule have already said that a patch removing the Qu’ran references on affected copies of the game should be ready by day one.
