A few months ago I picked up a new copy of this. I've never used Amazon before, so I just listed it on ebay. I've dropped the price to as low as $8 and it still isn't selling on ebay.

I'm not sure if the sales rank is very high to know if it would sell on amazon, it's currently ~4,000 in PC games and ~30,000 in video games. Is that at all good? If so, why is the selling price so much higher on amazon than ebay?

I checked CamelCamelCamel to see if it sells frequently, and it looks like there are spikes in it's sales rank over time, but I'm not entirely sure how to understand this data haha. Any help would be appreciated!
