After Randy Cox suggested it in a previous geeklist (The most expensive games in the marketplace, http://www.boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/34796), here is a list with the most expensive games sold (not just listed) in the marketplace in the recorded history, in any country.

If you just care about being able to play the game, you have to beware reprintings. My friend bought Family Business for $40 or so and a couple months later they began printing it again with a sale price of roughly $12. I like the art a lot more on the old version, but not $28 more.
