In Germany you could buy most games for 12.95DM in the 90s/10€ in the 2000s, if you were willing to wait a year after the initial release. And unless you had enough money to buy the newest PC, you often had to resort to last year's games anyway. As a comparison, I got 20DM for mowing my neighbours lawn.

These re-releases came with just a jewel case and no box, the manual was a PDF on the disk but on the other hand they often had some bugs fixed since the first release.
