What? Enter the AD-FREE zone

At the top of A/C forum and thread view page it says.

quote:
- CIVILIZATION 3 $9.99 - CIVILIZATION 2 from $6.95 - CIVILIZATION 2 from $4.25 - ALPHA CENTAURI + ALIEN CROSSFIRE (laptop collection) from $19.99


So why the two different prices for Civ2? Is this some kind of hidden psychological experiment?

EDIT: At the top of A/C, not every forum, I see.

Maybe the more expensive is MGE of ToT and the cheaper is vanilla.
That would be the obvious answer.
Buy them both and find out!

Got spare money?

I would, but I already have both (not ToT mind you), but since the prices are in dollars then I'll just have to keep scouring ebay.
