There's also the chance that it is simply someone who is interested in seeing what an old, classic game all is about.
I finally recently acquired a copy of
Mach (in the shrink no less), a game I'd seen much advertised in Dragon back in the day, mostly to see what the game was all about. I'd read a few reviews, and it was a so-so game by those reviews. But the price was right, and I had the money at the time.
The fact that it is still sitting on my bookshelf in the original shrink is all about my lack of time for a good, in-depth read than any collectability issues.
Also, that said, even with the above review, I'd probably buy a copy of
Castle Perilous if I could find one at the right price. Just so I could read it, and again, satisfy my curiosity.
