Makes me glad I'm not an Ultima collector.

   Ultima (1981) = $600
   Ultima II (1982) = $800
   Ultima III (1983) = $900
   Ultima IV (1985) = $800
   Ultima V (1988) = $140

Especially if we add subtitles!

   Ultima (1981) = $600
   Ultima II: Revenge of the Enchantress (1982) = $3100
   Ultima III: Exodus (1983) = $1500
   Ultima IV: Quest of the Avatar (1985) = $2400
   Ultima V:  Warriors of Destiny (1988) = $480

(I was nice and didn't count the colons.)

I might actually part with my original Infocoms at some of these
prices:

   Zork (1980) = $400
   Zork II (1981) = $600
   Zork III (1982) = $700
   Starcross (1982) = $900
   Suspended (1983) = $900
   Planetfall (1983) = $1000
   The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (1984) = $3000
   Leather Goddesses of Phobos (1986) = $480
   Stationfall (1987) = $220

And again, you don't want to collect Zork and count subtitles.

   Zork: The Great Underground Empire (1980) = $2900
   Zork II: The Wizard of Frobozz (1981) = $2400
   Zork III: The Dungeon Master (1982) = $2300
